| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Male reproductive part of the flower | Stamen |
| Female reproductive part of the flower | Pistil |
| Two structures that make up the stamen | Anther and filament |
| This structure produces and holds pollen | Anther |
| Supports the anther | Filament |
| This is the sticky knob at the top of the pistil | Stigma |
| Four parts of the pistil of a flower | Stigma, style, ovaries, ovules |
| Long, tubelike structure below stigma that pollen travels through | Style |
| Another name for the eggs in a flower | Ovules |
| Process by which plants make their food | Photosynthesis |
| Ovaries enlarge in some species of flowers to become this | Fruit |
| When the ovules are fertilized by the pollen this results | Seeds |
| Three ways pollen can be tranferred to the stigma | Wind, water, animals |
| Openings on the underside of leaves that allows for gas exchange (Co2 and O2) | Stomata |
| Three things needed for a plant to undergo photosynthesis in the presence of chlorophyll | Carbon dioxide, water, sunlight |
| Sugar produced by photosynthesis | Glucose |
| Three materials that result from the process of photosynthesis | Glucose, Oxygen, Water Vapor |
| Plant cells have nuclei, so therefore they are considered this type of cell | Eukaryotic cell |
| Plant cells are living, so they are considered this | Biotic |
| This carries water and nutrients taken up by the roots to the leaves. | Stems |
| This helps provide support by anchoring the plant and absorbing water and nutrients | Roots |
| A plant that completes its life cycle in one growing season. | Annual |
| A plant that lives for 3 or more years | Perennial |
| The style leads to this structure that contains the female egg cells | Ovary |
| The fertilized ovule becomes the seed, and the ovary becomes this | Fruit |
| Tiny green leaf-like parts at the base of the flower | Sepals |
| What is the purpose of the roots of a plant? | They anchor the plant to the ground and absorb water |
| What is the purpose of the stem of the plant? | It delivers water and nutrients to the plant |
| What pipes carry water and nutrients upwards in the stem? | xylem |
| What pipes transport sugars downwards to all parts of the plant in the stem? | phloem |
| Where does photosynthesis take place? | In the leaves |
| What is the green pigment called in a plant? | chlorophyll |
| Where is chlorophyll found? | In the chloroplast, located in the guard cells found in the leaves |
| What is a pollinator? | An animal that pollinates a flower. Examples: Bees, Butterflies, and other insects |
| Describe three ways in which the seeds of a plant are spread | Wind, Fruit-eating animals, and by catching on animal's fur |
