Flowering Plant
Angiosperm
Produces Pollen
Anther
Plant without vascular tissue
Bryophyte
Produced instead of a flower in Gymnosperms
Cone
Connects to the anther
Filament
effect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs.
Flower
have male and female parts
Perfect flower
1)once the egg inside the ovule is fertilized by the male pollen then the ovule begins to develop into a seed
2) The seed contains the embryo (fertilized egg) and a food supply for the embryo
3) The ovary enlarges into a _____
Fruit
Do not produce flowers
Gymnosperms
This protects the ovule and once fertilization has taken place it will become the fruit.
Ovary
used to attract insects into the flower, they may have guidelines on them and be scented.
Petal
carries organic nutrients, in particular, glucose to all parts of the plant where needed
Phloem
Step 1 - pollen grain lands on stigma
Step 2 - interaction between stigma and pollen grain forms a “pollen tube” which grows down to the ovary
Step 3 - pollen grains travel down the tube and fertilize the eggs; fertilization time varies greatly. Fertilization in a geranium takes a few hours while in an orchid it takes a few months
Pollination
1) absorption of water and inorganic nutrients,
2) anchoring of the plant body to the ground and
3) storage of food and nutrients and 4) to prevent soil erosion.
Root
protect the flower while the flower is developing from a bud.
Sepal
support the leaves and flowers and they carry water and food from place to place within the plant.
Stem
Is covered in a sticky substance that the pollen grains will stick to.
Stigma
raises the stigma away from the Ovary to decrease the likelihood of pollen contamination.
Style
The primary components of __________ ___________ are the xylem and phloem. These two tissues transport fluid and nutrients internally
Vascular Tissue
basic function is to transport water
Xylem
3 Functions of leaves
1)make food through photosynthesis
2)Gas Exchange- Respiration
3)Water Transport- Transpiration
What structures enable plants to gather nutrients without moving from place to place
Chloroplasts,
Roots,
Stoma
The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
Diffusion
A material is ____________ if it allows molecules to pass through.
Permeable
The diffusion of water molecules across a permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to low.
Osmosis
the cell swells or possibly explodes
Hypotonic
the cell shrinks
Hypertonic
there is no change in the cell
Isotonic
The transport of materials against a concentration gradient requires ATP
Active Transport
There are some molecules that are too large to pass through the cell membrane.
Therefore, some molecules must undergo passive transport by means of transport proteins.
Facilitated Diffusion
Some cells can take in large molecules, groups of molecules, or even whole cells through.
Endocytosis
Cells expel wastes and secrete cellular products.
Exocytosis
Animals use this to get energy from food
Respiration
Plants produce
Glucose
Formula for photosynthesis
Energy form sun + CO2+ H20---> 02+ C6H1206
Formula for respiration
glucose + O2 ---> CO2 +H2O + energy
Chloroplasts contain a pigment called ____________
Chlorophyll
In which organelle of the cell does aerobic respiration take place?
Mitochondria
Is always the producer is a food web
Plants
Gets the energy first from the producer in a food web
Primary consumer
Get the energy second from the producer in a food web
Secondary Consumer
Is the top consumer in a food web
Tertiary Consumer
Is the decomposer in a food web
Bacteria
Only ______ percent of energy is passed between each level in an energy pyramid
10%
Order of ecological organization
Organism -> Population -> Community ->Ecosystem -> Biome ->Biosphere
Both organisms in a relationship benefit
Mutualsm
One organism benefits and one is harmed
Parasitism
One organism is helped and the other is neither helped nor harmed
Commensalism
One organism is helped and the other is killed
Predation
Living factors in an environment
ex- consumers, producers
Biotic factors
Non living factors in an environment
ex. water, air
Abiotic factors
Difference between primary succession and secondary succession
Primary- a change in an environment where soil never existed before.
secondary succession is a process started by an event[1] (e.g. forest fire, harvesting, hurricane) that reduces an already established ecosystem
Which organ system makes blood cells
Skeletal System
Which organ system is responsible for fighting disease?
Immune system
What are the levels of biological organization from smallest to largest?
Organelle->cell->tissue->organ->organ system->organism
