Front 2

Angiosperm

Back 2

a flower producing vascular plant in which the seed is enclosed in a fruit, such as an apple (p. 288)

Front 3

cambium

Back 3

vascular plant tissue that produces new xylem and phloem cells (p. 294)

Front 4

dicot

Back 4

an angiosperm having two seed leaves inside its seed; for example a maple tree
(p. 288)

Front 5

guard cell

Back 5

in a plant leaf, cells that surround the stomata to open and close them (p. 294)

Front 6

gymnosperm

Back 6

a vascular plant that produces seeds on the scales of female cones, such as pinecones. (p. 286)

Front 7

monocot

Back 7

an angiosperm having a single seed leaf inside its seed; for example, an orchid
(p. 288)

Front 8

ovary

Back 8

in angiosperms, the swolen base of the pistil, where ovules form; in female animals, the organ that produces ova, or egg cells (p. 298)

Front 9

ovule

Back 9

the female reproductive part of a plant that produces eggs
(p. 296)

Front 10

phloem

Back 10

vascular plant tissue made up of tubular cells that move food from leaves and stems to other parts of the plant for use or storage (p. 294)

Front 11

pistil

Back 11

the female reproductive organ of a flower
(p. 298)

Front 12

pollen grain

Back 12

the male reproductive part of a plant that contains the sperm (p. 296)

Front 13

pollination

Back 13

the process that transfers pollen grains from the stamen to the stigmas (p. 299)

Front 14

stamen

Back 14

the male reproductive organ of a flower (p. 298)

Front 15

stomata

Back 15

small pores in the surface of a plant leaf that allow carbon dioxide, water, owygen to enter and leave
(p. 294)

Front 16

xylem

Back 16

vascular plant tissue made up of tubular vessels that transport water and minerals from the roots up through the plant (p. 294)
