Question
Answer
Epidermis   thin outer layer of cells  
🗑
Xylem   moves water & minerals to other parts of the plant  
🗑
Phloem   carries sugars made in the leaves throughout the plant  
🗑
Stoma   small holes that water & gases pass in & out of the plant through  
🗑
Some plant have 1 large root called a taproot with   many roots growing from it  
🗑
Transpiration   loss of water from leaf  
🗑
Tropism   plant behavior cause by growth toward or away from something in the environment  
🗑
Photosynthesis   process through which plants make glucose  
🗑
Cellular respiration   process by which cells break down glucose wit the release of energy  
🗑
Cuticle   waxy layer that may cover a leaf & slow water loss  
🗑
Describe 2 functions of stems in a flowering plant.   Stems provide support for the plant as it grows. the stems also have xylem & phloem which move water, minerals, and glucose through the plant.  
🗑
Describe the carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle & explain how it benefits plants & animals. Use the terms photosynthesis & cellular respiration in your answer.   Photosynthesis uses the sun, carbon dioxide, & water to make glucose and oxygen. cellular respiration uses oxygen to break down glucose. this provides energy for the plant. animals exhale carbon dioxide which provide the plant with what it needs to prod  
🗑
Compare/contrast spores & seeds.   Spores contain single cells that grow into new plant & a seed contains a multicellular embroyo that develops into a new plant.  
🗑
3 examples of tropism.   Gravitropism- plant responses to gravity; roots grown down & stems grow up Phototropism- responses to light; stems bend forward to the light & roots bend away from light Thigmotropism- responses to touch; plants grow toward the surface they touch  
🗑
How does the environment influence the time at which a seed germinates? How this help it survive?   Seeds need a certain temperature, water, & oxygen. If the environment isn't right seeds won't germinate & the embryo stays inside the seed  
🗑
are taproots that store extra food made by the plant   Carrots  
🗑
Carrots are roots that   store water  
🗑
open and close a leaf's stoma   Guard cells  
🗑
During photosynthesis plants use   energy from the sun, carbon dioxide from the air, & water to make glucose & oxygen  
🗑
releases energy & is called the power house of the cell   A mitochondrian  
🗑
Some seed plants called angiosperms produce   flowers  
🗑
Most seeds develop into a   fruit  
🗑
the female cone closes up & seeds grow in it   After fertilization  
🗑
can result from chemicals the plant makes   Plant behaviors  
🗑
   
🗑


   

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.
