Um.. See above
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Botany | The study of plants |
| Perennial plants | Plants that grow year after year |
| Biennial plants | Plants that live for two years |
| Vegetative organs | The parts of a plant(such as stems, roots, and leaves) that are not involved in reproduction |
| Reproductive plant organs | The parts of a plant (such as flowers, fruits, and seeds) involved in reproduction |
| Undifferentiated cells | Cells that have not specialized n ay particular function |
| Xylem | Nonliving vascular tissue that carries water and dissolved minerals from the roots of a plant to is leaves |
| Phloem | Living vascular tissue that carries sugar and organic substances throughout a plant |
| Leaf mosaic | The arrangement of leaves on the stem of a plant |
| Deciduous plant | A plant that loses its leaves for winter |
| Alternation of generation | A life cycle in which there is both a multicellular diploid form an a multicellular haploid form |
| Dominant generation | In alternation of generations, the generation that occupies the larges portion of the life cycle |
| Pollen | A fine dust that contains the sperm of seed-producing plants |
| Cotyledon | A "seed leaf" in which develops as a part of the seed. It provides nutrients to the developing seedling and eventually becomes the first leaf on the plant |
| Woody plants usually have a what? | A trunk (like a tree) |
| Woody plants are usually what? | Perennials |
| Herbacious plants are what? | Non-woody (like flowers) |
| Herbacious plants are usually what? | Annuals |
| Meristimatic tissue | mitosis |
| Ground tissue | Storage, photosynthesis, support, metabolism |
| Dermal tissue | Shield (epidermis) |
| Vascular tissue | Carrying, xylem, phloem |
| Phloem | sugar, down, used for syrup |
| Xylem | Water, up, bad taste |
| Guard cells | Each side, contains chlorophyll, opens and closed stomata with sugars that make them swell or shrink. Open stomata according to quantity of light. |
| Plastids | Contains starches, oils, pigments |
| Carotenoids | Orange and yellow pigments- Think carrot (carot) |
| Abscission layer | Block nutrients to leaves when exposed to shorter times of light, makes leaves fall |
| Fibrous roots | many roots |
| Taproot | One big root (carrot) |
| Byrophytes | NO vascular tissue |
| Moss is | Many little plants packed together, each with leaf and rhizoid |
| Rhizoid | NOT roots, used to anchor |
| Alternation of generation | Diploid, then haploid |
| Moss | Gametophyte generation, which has individual male and female reproduction organs |
