Chapter 3 plant
Lesson 1
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Chlorophyll | A green pigment found in the chloroplast of plants ,algae, and some bacteria |
| Photosynthesis | The process by which plants and other organisms capture the in sunlight and use it too make food |
| Chloroplast | a structure in the cells of plants and some other organisms that captures energy from sunlight and uses it to produce food |
| Vacuole | a second inside of cell the act as a storage area |
| Tissue | A group similar cells that perform a specific function |
| Organelle | A tiny cell structure that carries out a specific function within a cell |
| Cuticle | The waxy waterproof flavor covers the leaf stems of most plants |
| Vascular tissue | A system of tubelike structures inside a plant through which water, minerals and food move |
| Endoplasmic reticulum | A cell structure that forms a maze of passageway in which proteins and other materials are carried from one part of the cell |
| Lysosomes | A small, round cell structure that forms containing chemicals that break down large food particles into smaller ones |
| Golgi body | A structure in a cell that receives proteins and other newly formed materials from the endoplasmic reticulum, packages them, and distributes them to other pa |
| Mitochondrian | Rod-shaped cell structures that convert energy ion food molecules to energy the cell can use to carry out its functions |
| Chloromatin | Contains genetic material the instructions is for directing the cell’s functions in the chloromatin ensure the leaf cells grow and divide to form more leaf cells |
| What are the three main characteristics that all plants share? | Nearly all plants are autotrophs,produce their own food.green algae contain many cells, cell walls |
| What are two things that a plant needs and two things that makes during photosynthesis | Doing photosynthesis, a plant uses carbon dioxide, gas and water to make food and oxygen |
| What are two reasons why cell walls are important for plants | Plant cell walls contain cellulose, a material that makes the walls rigid. Because the cells are rigid, plant cells look like small boxes |
| What are five things that a plant needs to survive on land? | They must have ways to obtain water and and other nutrients from the surroundings, retain water, support their bodies, transport materials,and reproduce |
| Label a plant cell diagram and why it’s different from an animal cell | Cell wall vacuole chloroplast and it is different from animal cells because cell walls make onions crunchy |
