| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| angiosperms | type of vascular flowering plant |
| bryophytes | group of plants that do not have transport tubes |
| conifers | trees with cones and needle like leaves |
| cotyledon | leaflike structure inside a seed that contains food for developing plant |
| cycads | a type of gymnosperm (woody land plant) that grow in tropical areas and look like palm trees) |
| deciduous trees | a type of tree |
| dicot | flowering plant with two cotyledons or seed leaves in its seeds |
| embryo | undeveloped plant |
| ferns | oldest group of traecheophytes, they have tubes to carry water and are spore plants. |
| ginkos | a gymnosperm (land plant with uncovered seeds that has fan shaped leaves) |
| gymnosperms | type of land plant that has uncovered seeds |
| monocot | flowering plant with one cotyledon or seed leaf in its seeds |
| parts of a seed | seed coat, endosperm, embryo, and cotyledon |
| rhizomes | horizontal underground stem |
| seed coat | outer covering of seed that protects embryo |
| seeds | structure that contains a tiny living plant and food for its growth; a reproductive cell |
| tracheophytes | group of plants that have transport tubes |
| anther | part of the stamen that produces pollen |
| flower | the organ of reselection |
| fruit | mature ovary and its seeds |
| ovary | the bottom part of the pistil that reproduce seeds |
| ovule | part of the ovule that develops into a seed after fertilization |
| parts of a flower | sepal, petal, stamen, pistil |
| phloem | tissue that carries food from the leads to other parts of a plant |
| pistil | female reproductive organ in FLOWER |
| sepals | special kind of leaf that protects the flower bud |
| stamen | male reproductive organ in a flower |
| true roots, leaves and stems | These are the vegetable parts of plants |
| vegetable parts of plant | the leaves, stems and roots are the vegetable part of plant |
| xylem | tissue that carries water up from the roots. |
| photosynthesis | food-making process in plants |
| epidermis | outer layer of leaf |
| mesophyll | middle layer of leaf |
| bulb | underground stem with fleshy leaves |
| stomata | tiny openings in a leaf's surface |
| petal | colorful leaf of flower |
| vein | tube that contains xylem and phloem |
| pollination | process by which pollen moves from a stamen to a pistil |
| stigma | top part of pistil |
| stimulus | anything that causes a response |
| chlorophyll | green pigment used by plants to make food |
| fertilization | joining of male and female sex cells |
| hilum | mark on a seed coat where the seed was attached |
| tropism | plant response to stimulus |
| three types of bryophytes | mosses, liverworts, hornworts |
| three types of tracheophyts | ferns, gymnosperms (, conifer (pine trees) |
| parts of fern | leaflet, frond, rhizome, roots, fiddlehead |
| taproot | one large root and many small, thin roots |
| fibrous root | root system made up of many thin, branched roots |
| oxygen | a byproduct of photosynthesis - plants give it off |
| filament | stalk of an anther |
| vegatative propogation | a type of asexual reproduction where new plants are grown from roots and stems |
| genetically identical | new plants grown with vegatative propogation |
| stimulus for plants (3) | light water gravity |
| thigmortropism | plant response to touch (grows around it) |
| phototropism | plant response to light (grows toward it) |
| hydrotropism | plant response to water (grows toward it) |
| gravitropism | plant response to gravity (grows down) |
