Question
Answer
Name the three most common leaf mosaics.   Whorled Alternate Opposite  
🗑
What are the ten common leaf shapes?   Linear Elliptical Oval Deltoid Cordate Orbicular Lobed Cleft Needlelike Scalelike  
🗑
What are the five common leaf margins?   Entire Serrate Dentate Crenate Undulate  
🗑
What are the three common leaf venations?   Parallel Pinnate Palmate  
🗑
What is the location and function of palisade mesophyll in a plant?   In the leaf: Photosynthesis  
🗑
What is the location and function of spongy mesophyll in a plant?   In the leaf: Photosynthesis  
🗑
What is the location and function of epidermis in a plant?   Leaf, root, and stem: Protection  
🗑
What is the location and function of xylem in a plant?   Leaf, root, and stem: Transports water and minerals  
🗑
What is the location and function of phloem in a plant?   Leaf, root, and stem: Transports food and organic substances  
🗑
What is the location and function of chollenchyma in a plant?   Vein of leaf: Support  
🗑
What controls the opening and closing of the stomata on a leaf?   Guard cells  
🗑
Why is the bottom of a leaf typically lighter than the top?   The spongy mesophyll layer, which has fewer green photosynthetic cells with more space, is usually on the underside of a leaf.  
🗑
Name two types of pigments that cause leaves to be a color other than green.   Carotenoids and Anthocyanins  
🗑
If a tree has no abscission layer, will it be deciduous?   No  
🗑
Where is the abscission layer?   Between the stem and petiole  
🗑
Name the four regions of a root.   Root Cap - Meristematic - Elongation - Maturation  
🗑
Where are undifferentiated cells in a root?   Meristematic region  
🗑
What allows woody stems to have no limit to their growth, unlike herbaceous stems?   The cork cambium in a woody stem produces more bark when the bark cracks due to growth. But herbaceous stems do not have cork cambium and thus would crack, exposing the stem to injury and disease.  
🗑
What is the function of vascular cambium?   Produces new vascular tissue.  
🗑
What kind of vascular tissue makes up most of the wood in a woody stem?   Xylem  
🗑
What kind of vascular tissue is found in the inner bark of a woody stem?   Phloem  
🗑
What is the dominant generation in the moss life cycle?   Gametophyte: Haploid  
🗑
A fern has antheridia and archegonia. Which part of the fern life cycle is it in? Is it dominant?   Gametophyte: Not dominant  
🗑
Why are plants from phylum Bryophyta relatively small?   They have no vascular tissue to transport nutrients throughout the plant.  
🗑
A fifteen foot tall plant has a root system four feet deep. Is it fibrous or taproot?   Fibrous  
🗑
What are the male and female reproductive organs in a tree from phylum Coniferophyta?   Female is the seed cone, male is the pollen cone  
🗑
What is the fundamental difference between monocots and dicots?   The number of cotyledons produced in the seed.  
🗑
A plant produces seed cones and pollen cones. Is it vascular? To what phylum does it belong?   Vascular, phylum Coniferophyta  
🗑
A plant produces flowers. To what phylum does it belong?   Phylum Anthophyta  
🗑
What is the abscission layer?   Structure in deciduous trees between the stem and petiole that causes the leaves to die in autumn.  
🗑
What are anthocyanins and how do they work?   A group of pigments that can give plants a pigment other than green. They work through leaf PH.  
🗑
Be able to recognize monocot or dicot vascular bundles.   Study Figure 14.12  
🗑
Name two differences between monocots and dicots.   Leaf venation: parallel monocots, netted dicots; Fibrovascular bundles: location and appearance differ; Number of petals: 3 or 6 monocots, 4 or 5 dicots  
🗑


   

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.
