Question
Answer
vascular plants   largest groups in plant kingdom tht have tubelike structures tht provide circulate water and food throughout the plant  
🗑
nonvascular plants   plants are much different and there are far less plants tht fit into groups. They dont have root systems  
🗑
seed producing plants   plangts tht are split into 2 groups based on how there produced  
🗑
spore producing   plants that are produced spores for reproduction instead of seeds  
🗑
angisperm   flowering plants are known as this; most trees,shrubs,vines. etc  
🗑
gymnosperms   a cone bearing plant tht are different bcause they never have flowers produce seeds in cones.  
🗑
monocot   a seed with one food storage area  
🗑
dicot   a seed with two food storage areas  
🗑
photosynthesis   process when green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to syntesize foods from carbon dioxide and water  
🗑
cotyledon   an embryonic leaf in seed-bearing plants, one or more of which are the first leaves to appear from a germinating seed  
🗑
xylem   the vascular tissue in plants tht conducts water and dissolved nutrients upward from the root and also helps to form th woody element  
🗑
phloem   the vascular tissue in plants tht conducts sugars and other metabolic products downward from the leaves  
🗑
fibrous roots   a fibrous root system is the oppisite of a taproot system- usually formed by thin, moderatly branching roots growing from the stem  
🗑
taproots   a straight tapering root growing vertcally downward and forming the center which subsidary rootlets spring  
🗑
stamen   the male fertillizing organ of a flower, typically consisting of a pollen-containing anther and a filament  
🗑
pistil   the female organs of a flower, comprising the stigma, style, and ovary  
🗑
ovary   the hollow base of a carpel of a flower, containing one or more ovules  
🗑
stigma    
🗑
style    
🗑
seed   a flowering plants unit of reproduction capable of developing into another such plant  
🗑
embryo   an unborn/unhatched offspring in the process of development  
🗑
germination   process where by seeds or spores sprout and begin to grow  
🗑
plant development   process by which structures originate and mature as a plant grows  
🗑
fertilization   action or process of fertilizing a plant or fertilizer to soil  
🗑
pollination   transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of a plant  
🗑
seed production    
🗑
plant life cycle   gametophyte, plant sexuality, pollen, pollenation, seed, spore, sporophyte  
🗑
sexual reproduction   plant reproduction is production of new individuals or offspring in plants, which can be accomplished by sexual or asexual means  
🗑
asexual reproduction   reproduction without the fussion of gametes  
🗑
chloroplasts   a plastid tht contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place (in green plants)  
🗑
chlorophyll   a green pigment present in all green plants and in cyanobacteria, responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy  
🗑
stomata   minute pores in the epidermis of the leaf of the leaf or stem of a plant, forming a slit of varriable width tht allows movement of gases  
🗑
respiration   action of breathing  
🗑
transpiration   passage of gases through fine tubes because of differences in pressure or temperature  
🗑
stimuli   a thing tht rouses activity or energy in someone or something; a spur or incentive  
🗑
dormancy   one or more of the plants organs undergoes a period in which the growth processes are slowed down, or suspended, tht state is termed  
🗑
tropism   turning of all or part of an organism in a paticular direction in response to an external stimulus  
🗑
phototropism   orientation of a plant or other organisms in response to light, either toward the source of light or away  
🗑
growitropism/ geotropism   a turning or growth movement by a plant or fungus in repsponse to gravity  
🗑
hydrotropism   growth or turning of plant roots toward or away from moisture  
🗑
thigmotropism   turning or bending of a plant or other organism in response to a touch stimulus  
🗑
