Question
Answer
What organelle do all organisms in the Plant Kingdom have that allow them to make food? What is the name of the pigment inside of it.   Chloroplast with chlorophyll  
🗑
Describe where the seed coat can be found and what job does it perform   Outside - protects the embryo  
🗑
Describe where the Cotyledon can be found and what job does it perform   Inside (large mass) - stored food for the embryo  
🗑
Describe where the Embryo can be found and what job does it perform   Inside - Baby plant  
🗑
What two things does a seed need to germinate?   Water and warmth  
🗑
What are three functions of roots?   -Take in water -Anchor plant -some store food (i.e. carrot)  
🗑
What are the 4 main parts of a plant   -Flower -Stem -Leaves -Roots  
🗑
What are three functions of stems?   -Transport materials between roots and leaves -Holds up leaves/flower -Some store food (i.e. sugar cane)  
🗑
Describe non-vascular   -shorter plants -no tubes present for transportation of materials -moss, liverworts, etc  
🗑
Describe Vascular   -Taller plants -Tubes present for transportation of materials -Trees, flowers, shrubs, etc.  
🗑
What are xylem and phloem?   Transport tubes  
🗑
Definition of Xylem   Carries water from the roots to the leaves  
🗑
Definition of Phloem   Carries glucose (food) from the leaves to the rest of the plant  
🗑
What happens to the leaves of celery if the stem is placed in colored water. How do you know this?   The colored water will travel up the xylem and color the leaves of the celery. We know because water is carried upwards by xylem  
🗑
What are two functions of leaves?   -Makes food (photosynthesis) -Captures sunlight  
🗑
What are the end products of photosynthesis?   Glucose (food/sugar) and Oxygen  
🗑
Name and describe 3 ways a plant can reproduce asexually   -Bulbs - short underground stem that can grow new/identical plants (ie onion) -Tuber - underground stems that grown new/identical plants from buds (ie potato) -Sporulation- Identical organism forms from spores released by parent (ie moss) -Cuttings - A  
🗑
Name and describe the 2 ways a plant can reproduce sexually   -Self-pollination - pollen reaches stigma, etc. (between flowers on the same plant -Cross-pollination - pollen reaches stigma, etc. (flowers on different plants)  
🗑
Sexually reproduction provides genetic diversity. Why is genetic diversity good?   Genetic diversity gives us different organisms with a mix of traits. For example, Bubonic plague killed millions, but not everybody. Some people had a mix of traits making them immune to disease so they survived and passed on those traits.  
🗑
Definition of Pistil   Center of flower - female part of flower  
🗑
Definition of Stigma   top of pistil-captures pollen  
🗑
Definition of ovary   bottom of pistil-contains ovules and make seeds  
🗑
Definition of stamen   male part of flower  
🗑
Definition of anther   top of stamen-releases pollen  
🗑
Definition of reproduction   flower function  
🗑
When pollen (plant sperm) meets an ovule (plant egg), what does the pollen do to the ovule. This forms the seed   fertilize  
🗑
What could plants provide for astronauts in space?   Food, oxygen, boost in spirits, recycled water  
🗑
Define hydrotropism   response to water-wilting plants perk up  
🗑
Define thigmotropism   response to touch - vines grow along fence  
🗑
Define gravitropism   response to gravity - stems grow up, roots down  
🗑
Define phototropism   response to light - leaves and stem bend to source  
🗑
Define chemotropism   response to chemicals - fertilizer  
🗑
