|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Photosynthesis | process plants use to make food (converting radiant energy from the sun to chemical energy)
🗑
|
||||
| Radiant Energy | light energy from the sun
🗑
|
||||
| Chloroplast | plant cell organelle where photosynthesis occurs
🗑
|
||||
| Chlorophyll | green pigment in chloroplasts that helps photosynthesis occur
🗑
|
||||
| Tropism | movements caused by a change in a plant's growth pattern - it's response to external stimuli
🗑
|
||||
| Geotropism/Gravitropism | a plant's response to gravity - it's stem grows upward and roots grow downward.
🗑
|
||||
| Phototropism | the way a plant grows or bends in response to light
🗑
|
||||
| Thigmotropism | a plant's response to touch; ex: a vine wrapping around a fence post
🗑
|
||||
| Hydrotropism | the way a plant grows or bends in response to water
🗑
|
||||
| Turgor Pressure | pressure in a plant cell caused by the water in its vacuole; if this is too low, the plant wilts
🗑
|
||||
| Xylem | internal structure of a plant that delivers water and nutrients to the leaves and flowers.
🗑
|
||||
| Biotic | living things
🗑
|
||||
| Abiotic | non-living things
🗑
|
||||
| Producer/Autotroph | organisms that make their own food
🗑
|
||||
| Consumer/Heterotroph | organisms that rely on eating other organisms for energy
🗑
|
||||
| Biomass | material from living or recently living organisms
🗑
|
||||
| Decomposition | process by which large organic materials and molecules are broken down into smaller ones.
🗑
|
||||
| Biodiversity | the number and variety of organisms in an area.
🗑
|
||||
| Sustainability | the ability of an ecosystem to keep/maintain its organisms
🗑
|
||||
| Tundra | The "frozen desert" - very cold and dry; no trees bc ground is frozen most of the time; animald have thick layer of fat & white fur
🗑
|
||||
| Taiga | very cold in winter, warmer in summer; a lot of coniferous trees; plants - evergreens w/ waxy needle like leaves; animals hibernate in winter
🗑
|
||||
| Deciduous Forest | 4 seasons; animals rely on camouflage; plants use phototropism
🗑
|
||||
| Tropical Rainforest | near the equator; very warm and TONS of rain; plants have drip tips and many vines rely on thigmotropism to get light; many animals live in trees and eat fruit
🗑
|
||||
| Desert | very dry and warm/hot; many animals are nocturnal; plants have the ability to store water
🗑
|
||||
| Grasslands | large, rolling terrains with few trees and lots of grasses; also known as savannahs, prairies, and pastures; many animals live underground since there aren't many trees
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
