These open and close stomata, regulating gas flow

guard cells

New cards
2

opening, mainly on bottom of leaf, where gases enter and exit the leaf

stomata

New cards
3

layer responsible for majority of photosynthesis

mesophyll

New cards
4

plural word for stoma

stomata

New cards
5

gas that leaves take in

carbon dioxide

New cards
6

where the plant receives the majority of its energy

sun

New cards
7

type of vascular tissue that transports water and dissolved minerals from roots to leaves

xylem

New cards
8

process by which plants make energy using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide

photosynthesis

New cards
9

type of vascular cell that transports sugars (food) from leaves to other parts of the plant

phloem

New cards
10

plant stem structure that contains xylem and phloem tissue

vascular bundle

New cards
11

outer layer of cells that protect leaf

epidermis

New cards
12

another name for vein, or collection of cells that transports materials throughout plant

vascular tissue/bundle

New cards
13

color of cuticle and epidermis, so sunlight can pass through

transparent

New cards
14

chemical produced by cloroplasts

chlorophyll

New cards
15

cell organelle responsible for photosynthesis

Chloroplast

New cards
16

waxy coating that prevents water loss

cuticle

New cards
17

color of leaves due to presence of clorophyll

green

New cards
18

layer of loosely packed cells and gas pockets

spongy

New cards
19

gas that leaves give off

oxygen

New cards
20

layer made up of both spongy & palisade cells

mesophyll

New cards
21

!!!!!!know the cross section of a leaf diagram!!!!!!

okay

New cards
22

sepals

surround and protect the essential organ

New cards
23

petals

Surround the male and female flower parts and are there to attract animal pollinators

New cards
24

stamens

The pollen-producing male reproductive organ of a flower, consisting of an anther and filament.

New cards
25

filament

thin stalk that supports the anther

New cards
26

anther

produces male gametes - pollen

New cards
27

pollen grains

each contain 2 sperm nucki when they mature they split open & disperse pollen dust

New cards
28

pistil

The female reproductive part of a flower

New cards
29

stigma (flower)

becomes sticky & moist when mature; receives pollen

New cards
30

style (flower)

Holds the stigma; middle portion of pistil can be long, slender, short, absent

New cards
31

ovary

A flower structure that encloses and protects ovules and seeds as they develop; contains one or more hallow compartment called locules

New cards
32

locules

each contain one or more ovules

New cards
33

ovule

undergo meiosis to form oval (eggs) containing egg nuclei

New cards
34

male reproductive system in a flower

stamen: anther, filament

New cards
35

female reproductive system in a flower

pistil: stigma, style, ovary, ovule

New cards
36

pollen grains

filament structure supports anther, pollen grains land on stigma and germinale

New cards
37

pollen tubes

emerges from germinated pollen grains making passage way from 2 sperm nuclei to enter ovum

New cards
38

monocot

  • one cotyledon

  • veins usually parallel

  • vascular bundles usually complexly arranged

  • fibrous root system

  • floral parts usually in multiples of 3

New cards
39

dicot

  • 2 cotyledons

  • veins usually netlike

  • vascular bundles usually arranged in ring

  • taproot usually present

  • floral parts usually in multiples of four or five

New cards
40

Taproot system

  • single thick primary root, called the taproot, with smaller secondary roots growing out from the sides. (often dicots)

New cards
41

Fibrous root systems

  • have many small branching roots, called fibrous roots, but no large primary root.

  • The huge number of thread-like roots increases the surface area for absorption of water and minerals(often monocots)

New cards
42

What are the 3 primary functions of roots?

  1. absorbing water & minerals 2.anchoring and supporting the plant 3. storing food

New cards
43

4 types of plant tissues

dermal, vascular, ground, meristematic

New cards
44

Dermal tissue in plants

plant's outer protective covering

New cards
45

vascular tissue in plants

Made up of xylem and phloem, it transports fluid and nutrients internally

New cards
46

ground tissue of plants

• Photosynthesis

• Food storage

• Healing and tissue regeneration

and support

New cards
47

meristematic

plant tissue found only in the tips of shoots and roots; responsible for plant growth

New cards
48

know the reproductive structures of flower diagram

okay
