Help with reproduction
Create more plants |
|
What are gymnosperms |
Vascular plants that produce seeds on the scale of female cones |
|
What are some examples gymnosperms |
•Cycads •Ginkgos •Conifers •Epledras
|
|
How are gymnosperm's seeds protected |
they're in cones
they are released when they are matured and fertilized
|
|
do gymnosperms produce flowers |
no, they produce cones instead |
|
what kind of leaves do gymnosperms have |
needle-like leaves
|
|
are there 1 or 2 types of cones |
2:
female
male |
|
what are the use of gymnosperms |
build houses
decorations
animal's protection and shelter |
|
Vascular plants that produce flowers and fruits |
Angiosperms |
|
2 Types of Angiosperms |
Monocot
Dicot |
|
Monocot |
Seeds have only one Cotyledon
|
|
Dicots |
Seeds have 2 cotyledon
Leaves have branching veins (petals come in fours and fives) |
|
Where is sperm produced |
angiosperms: in pollen grains on anther of flower
Gymnosperms: pollen grains in male cones |
|
Where are eggs produced |
in the ovules, inside of the ovary in organisms |
|
How does the pollen with the sperm in it get to the ovules with the eggs in them |
•Pollen lands on stigma •A Pollen tube forms though the style in the ovary •Sperms travels down pollen tube into the ovary •Sperms finds ovule and fertilizes egg inside it |
|
What is pollination |
transfer of pollen from the stamen to the stigma |
|
What is a zygote |
zygote is a cell that forms when the sperm fertilizes egg |
|
What does the zygote become in the seed |
Embryo |
|
How do seeds get from the flower to the ground |
•Wind •Animals eating & discarding them •Water •sticking to animals |
|

pecans walnuts |
|
What is germination |
Development of a seed into a new plant |
|
What is the endosperms used for |
•Food storing part of the seed •Gives the energy that monocots need to grow' •Energy can be so great, it can split rock so the plant can grow through
|
|
What happens to the cotyledon when it is not needed anymore |
It stays in the ground (In monocots) or it shrivels up and falls off |
|
Process by which plants make their own food |
Photosythesis |
|
Plants do photosynthesis through capturing energy from... |
light |
|
This energy that plants capture is used to make sugar________from carbon dioxide and water |
Glucose |
|
Plants have specialized organelles in their cells called |
Chloraplast |
|
Chloroplast have membranes inside of them called |
Thylakoid |
|
This membrane forms stacks and contain a green pigment called |
Chlorophyll |
|
Light energy that the plant takes in helops the formation of food, also known as |
Glucose |
|
Photosynthesis equation: |
6co2 + 6h2o + energy ------- 6o2 + c6H12o6 |
|
Opposite of photosynthesis |
Cell Respiration |
|
Cellular Respiration Equation |
C6H12o6 + 6o2 + 6co2 + 6H2o + Energy |

Cuticle |
|
Carbon dioxide enters a plant through a structure called |
Stoma |
|
There is a ________ _____ on either side of the stoma, which open and close stoma |
Guard Cell |
|
When the stoma is open, _______ ________ free to move into leaf. |
Carbon Dioxide |
|
Loss Of Water |
Transpiration |
|
Plants from the base of every food _____. Any _____ that the plants takes in from the sun it stores in itself and when plants get eaten they pass on this chemical energy |
•Chain
•Engery |
|
Photosynthesis creates the oxygen that we need for |
Cellular Respiration |
|
Parts of Roots & Stems |
Xylem: made up of tubular vessels that transport water minerals up from roots to plants
Phloem: Made up of tubular cells that move food from leaves & stems to other parts of the plant for use & storage
|
|
Functions of roots |
•To hold plants in ground •Take in water and minerals from soil •Store food •Some absorb oxygen |
|
Functions of Stems |
•Support plant •Allow movement of materials between roots & leaves •some store food •some carry out photosynthesis
|
|
Types of roots |
•Ones that lay above ground like spider webs •ones that go straight down •carrots & beets |
|
Types of stems |
•Fleshy: belong to flowers, vegetables, ect. •Some vegetables are stems (potatos & onions)
•Woody stems: the stems of trees |
|
Functions of leaves |
•used for photosynthesis •are big so they can trap light |
|
Structures of Leaves |
•Epidermis: top layer •Vein: vascular tissue • stoma •Guard cells •Cuticle |
|
Adaptions of leaves |
•Cuticle: waxy layer that protects the plant from losing water
•Stomata: small pores in the leaf's surface that allow carbon dioxide, water, and oxygen in & out of the leaf
Guard cell: open & close stomata
