| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Survival for plants is dependent on the ability to __________________ nutrients and water throughout their bodies. | transport |
| The _______________________absorb water and minerals from the soil and transport them up the tree through the vascular tissue called________________________. | roots, xylem |
| The leaves of a plant contain chloroplast required for _________________________________ or the making the food. | photosynthesis |
| The food is made in the leaves and travels down the plant via the ____________________________. | Phloem |
| The purpose of the ___________________________ is to support the plant and hold it upright. | stem |
| The purpose of the ___________________________ is for reproduction. | flower |
| Water is absorbed into the _______________________ of a plant and travels up to the leaves via the ___________________________. | roots, xylem |
| When water reaches the leaves, some of the water is released as ____________________________ through openings in the leaves called_______________________. | water vapor, stoma |
| The stoma are surrounded by two kidney-shaped _____________________________ which can control the size of the stoma’s openings. | guard cells |
| The stoma allow water and _________________________ to be expelled from the leaves, and they allow __________________________________ to enter the leaves. | oxygen, carbon dioxide |
| The evaporation of water into the atmosphere from plants is known as ________________________. | transpiration |
| ___________________________ help a plant respond to the environment. | Hormones |
| When a plant turns, bends, moves, or grows toward or away from an external stimulus, the action is called a _________________________. | tropism |
| A plant exhibits __________________________ when it bends toward the light. | phototropism |
| _____________________, a hormone that promotes cell elongation, influences phototropism. | Auxin |
| Auxin also affects ____________________________ or when the plant grows in response to gravity | gravitropism |
| Plants do not contain hormone-producing __________________________; instead each cell can make the hormones. | glands |
| The development of plant hormones is dependent on __________________________, such as zinc. | minerals |
| Zinc is used to help produce hormones that elongate the stem, such as ____________________________. | gibberllin |
| The life cycle of a plant involves alternation of _______________________, which means the plant has both haploid and diploid stages. | generations |
| The ______________________ is the haploid stage and it produces gametes by mitosis. | gametophyte |
| The ____________________ is the diploid stage that produces the haploid spores by meiosis. | sporophyte |
| Flowering plants spend the majority of their lives in the _____________________________ generation. | gametophyte |
| The gametophyte generation can be found in the egg located within the flower’s _____________________ and the pollen located in the ______________________. | pistil, stamen |
| ____________________________ is the transfer of the male pollen to the stigma of the female. | Pollination |
| What property of water enables it to make the journey from the roots to the leaves? | The fact that it is cohesive |
| the process of maintaining a stable internal environment | homeostasis |
| ___________________ have elaborate systems for transporting water, mineral nutrients, and organic compounds that are critical for plants' survival | Vascular Plants |
