Chapter 3 plants
lesson 1
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Photosynthesis | process of making energy in autotrophs |
| the three main characters that all plants share | All plants are autotrophs, multicellular and contain a cell wall. |
| Chlorophyll | A green photosynthetic pigment found in the chloroplasts of plants. |
| Tissue | A group of similar cells that preform a specific function |
| Chloroplast | Captures energy from sun and changes it to an energy form that cells can use in making food |
| Vacuole | A sac like organelle that holds water ,food and other materials |
| Cuticle | The waxy waterproof layer that covers the leaves and stems of most plants |
| Vascular tissue | Tubelike tissue that carries food water and minerals |
| Organelle | A tint cell structure that carries a specific function within the cell |
| Chromatic | Ensure that the leave cells grow and divide more leave cells |
| Mitochondrion | Converts energy in a food molecule |
| Endoplasmic reticulum | A cell structure that forms a maze of passageways in which proteins and molecules are carried out |
| Lysosomes | Small round cell structure that containing chemicals that breaks down large food |
| Golgi body | Receive s protein and distributes it to the parts of a cell |
| Two things that plants need and two things it makes during photosynthesis | In needs sunlight and carbon dioxide to make food and oxygen during photosynthesis |
| Two reasons why a cell walls are important for plants | Cell walls make apples and carrots for humans to chomp on |
| 5 things that plants need to survive on land | The must obtain water and nutrients and retain water and support their bodies and transport materials and reproduce. |
| A plant cell diagram and why is it different from animal cell | Plant cells have a cell wall unlike animal cells |
