Cubangbang's 7th Ch.12 Plant Kingdom:structure
Question | Answer |
---|---|
green chloroplasts | plastids |
shape or form of structure | Morphology |
bodily structure of an organism | Anatomy |
The plants' four types of organisms | roots,stems,leaves, and flowers. |
all the roots of a plant | Root System |
region where a leaf is or was attached | Node |
flowering plants | Anthophyta |
cone producers | Coniferophyta |
ferns | Pteridophyta |
mosses | Bryophyta |
A root system that has a cluster of roots that are about equal size | Fibrous root system |
stems that are hard and not very flexible | woody stems |
stem that is softer and more flexible | herbaceous stem |
the flat, green part of a leaf | blade |
when a leaf blade looks like it has sevaral individual leaves | compound leaf |
smaller pieces of the blade | leaflet |
water and sugar conducting tissues | Veins |
when larger veins are all parallel to eachother | parallel venation |
leaves with veins that branch away from base of leaf | palmate venation |
when there is one main vein extending the length of a leaf with smaller veins branching away from it along its entire length. | pinnate venation |
part of a leaf between node and blade | petiole |
three or more leaves per node is a | whorled |
the cell walls of plants are made largely of | cellulose |
two characteristics of plant cells | cell walls and plastids |
chloroplast can convert the sun's light energy into food by a process called | photosynthesis |
chloroplast contain the green pigment called | chlorophhyll |
captures the light's energy | chlorophyll |
A tissue that is made primarily of long,hollow cells, much like miniature straws | Xylem |
is the younger xylem that still carries water | sapwood |
A tissue in plants that carries a sugar solution from the leaves to other parts of a plant | phloem |
extremely long, narrow cells | fibers |
the outermost tissue of leaves, young roots, adn young stems | epidermis |
a noncellular protective covering of leaves and young stems | cuticle |
outside the xylem of a tree is the | bark |
the innermost layer of the bark is a layer of tissue called | vascular cambium |
type of cell found in bark | cork |
layer of living cells under dead cork | cork cambium |
plants that have vascular tissue are called | vascular plants |
plants that dont have vascular tissue are called | nonvascular plants |
group where true mosses belong | bryophytes |
peat moss | sphagnum |
a thin rootlike structure | rhizoid |
nonvascular plants | liverworts and hornworts |
a plant that has tissues that conduct water and other materials but does not reproduce by forming seeds | seedless vascular plant |
fern leaves | fronds |
young fronds | crosiers or fiddleheads |
two main groups of seed plants | gymnosperms and angiosperms |
"naked seed" | gymnosperm |
plant that does not rely on water for sexual reproduction | seed plant |
"covered seed" | angiosperm |
the ripened ovary of a flower | fruit |
organisms that make there own food | plants |
