Cubangbang's 7th Ch.12 Plant Kingdom:structure
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| green chloroplasts | plastids |
| shape or form of structure | Morphology |
| bodily structure of an organism | Anatomy |
| The plants' four types of organisms | roots,stems,leaves, and flowers. |
| all the roots of a plant | Root System |
| region where a leaf is or was attached | Node |
| flowering plants | Anthophyta |
| cone producers | Coniferophyta |
| ferns | Pteridophyta |
| mosses | Bryophyta |
| A root system that has a cluster of roots that are about equal size | Fibrous root system |
| stems that are hard and not very flexible | woody stems |
| stem that is softer and more flexible | herbaceous stem |
| the flat, green part of a leaf | blade |
| when a leaf blade looks like it has sevaral individual leaves | compound leaf |
| smaller pieces of the blade | leaflet |
| water and sugar conducting tissues | Veins |
| when larger veins are all parallel to eachother | parallel venation |
| leaves with veins that branch away from base of leaf | palmate venation |
| when there is one main vein extending the length of a leaf with smaller veins branching away from it along its entire length. | pinnate venation |
| part of a leaf between node and blade | petiole |
| three or more leaves per node is a | whorled |
| the cell walls of plants are made largely of | cellulose |
| two characteristics of plant cells | cell walls and plastids |
| chloroplast can convert the sun's light energy into food by a process called | photosynthesis |
| chloroplast contain the green pigment called | chlorophhyll |
| captures the light's energy | chlorophyll |
| A tissue that is made primarily of long,hollow cells, much like miniature straws | Xylem |
| is the younger xylem that still carries water | sapwood |
| A tissue in plants that carries a sugar solution from the leaves to other parts of a plant | phloem |
| extremely long, narrow cells | fibers |
| the outermost tissue of leaves, young roots, adn young stems | epidermis |
| a noncellular protective covering of leaves and young stems | cuticle |
| outside the xylem of a tree is the | bark |
| the innermost layer of the bark is a layer of tissue called | vascular cambium |
| type of cell found in bark | cork |
| layer of living cells under dead cork | cork cambium |
| plants that have vascular tissue are called | vascular plants |
| plants that dont have vascular tissue are called | nonvascular plants |
| group where true mosses belong | bryophytes |
| peat moss | sphagnum |
| a thin rootlike structure | rhizoid |
| nonvascular plants | liverworts and hornworts |
| a plant that has tissues that conduct water and other materials but does not reproduce by forming seeds | seedless vascular plant |
| fern leaves | fronds |
| young fronds | crosiers or fiddleheads |
| two main groups of seed plants | gymnosperms and angiosperms |
| "naked seed" | gymnosperm |
| plant that does not rely on water for sexual reproduction | seed plant |
| "covered seed" | angiosperm |
| the ripened ovary of a flower | fruit |
| organisms that make there own food | plants |
