Question
Answer
vascular tissue   A plant tissue, such as xylem and phloem, that conducts water and other materials in plants  
🗑
nonvascular plant   A plant that lacks the tissues to conduct water and other materials  
🗑
rhizoid   A thin, rootlike structure found in fungi and mosses  
🗑
alternation of generations   A reproductive cycle in which the asexual reproductive stages give rise to sexual reproductive stages that, in turn, give rise to asexual reproductive stages  
🗑
seedless vascular plant   A plant that has tissues that conduct water and other materials but does not reproduce by forming seeds, such as ferns, club mosses, and horsetails  
🗑
seed plant   A vascular plant that produces seeds through sexual reproduction, such as angiosperms and gymnosperms  
🗑
angiosperm   A flowering plant that produces seeds surrounded by a protective covering called a fruit  
🗑
gymnosperm   A nonflowering plant that produces seeds not fully covered or shielded from the environment  
🗑
sepal   The outermost appendage of a flower; often small, green, and leaflike.  
🗑
petal   One of the appendages of a flower; usually colorful; often functions to attract pollinators.  
🗑
stamen   The male reproductive structure of a flower; composed of an anther and a filament.  
🗑
pollen   The structure that contains the male gamete of a plant; produced in the anther and covered by a protective coating.  
🗑
pistil   The female reproductive part of a flower; includes the stigma, style, and ovary.  
🗑
ovary   In plants, the part of the pistil containing ovules and eventually maturing into a fruit surrounding the seeds; in animals and humans, the female reproductive organ that produces eggs  
🗑
stigma   The expanded tip of the pistil; receives the pollen.  
🗑
pollination   The process of transferring pollen from the anther to the stigma.  
🗑
ovule   The structure in a plant ovary that contains the egg and will develop into a seed when fertizilized  
🗑
seed   A mature ovule consisting of an embryo and stored food enclosed by a seed coat.  
🗑
cotyledon   The source of food in a seed that aids growth; sometimes called a seed leaf.  
🗑
fruit   The ripened ovary of a flower.  
🗑
