waxy, protective layer that covers the stems, leaves and flowers of many plants and helps prevent water loss

vascular tissue that forms hollow vessels that transport substances, other than sugar throughout a plant

tiny openings in a plant's epidermas through which carbon dioxide, water, and oxygen enter and exit

first organisms to grow in new or disturbed areas; break down rock and build up decaying plant material so that other plants can grow

vascular tissue that forms tubes that transport dissolved sugar throughout a plant

chemical compound made out of sugar; forms of tangled fibers in the cell walls of many plants and provides structure and support

threadlike structures that anchor nonvascular plants to the ground

vascular tissue that produces xylem and phloem cells as a plant grows

plant with tubelike structures that move minerals, water, and other substances throughout the plant

plant that absorbs water and other substances directly through its cell walls instead of through tubelike structures

vascular plants that don't flower, generally have needlelike or scale like leaves, and produce seeds that aren't protected by fruit; conifers, cyads,ginkgoes, and gnetophytes

angiosperm with two cotyledons inside its seed, flower parts in multiples of four or five, and vascular bundles in rings

pars of cells that surround stomata and control their opening and closing

flowering vascular plants that produce fruits containing one or more seeds; monocots and dicots

angiosperm with one cotyledon inside its seed, flower parts in multiples of three, and vascular tissues in bundles scattered throughout the stem
