dormancy
A single plant can reproduce many offspring genetically identical to itself in the process of
Vegetative reproduction
The process in which stems cut from a parent plant are attached to another plant is called
grafting
The process in which lateral buds cut from a parent plant are attached to another plant is called
Budding
Where does gymnosperm reproduction take place
pollen and seed cones
The three principal organs of seed plants are
Roots, stem, and leaves
The three type of plant tissues systems are
Meristematic dermal and vascular
Two cell types that make up xylem
tracheids and vessel elements

sieve tubes and companion cells
seive tube elements and companion cells are all parts of what
Vascular tissue
along a stem leaves and buds are separated by regions of a stem called
internode
In a dicot stem parenchyma cells inside the ring of vascular tissue are known as
vascular bundles
Primary growth increases what
The length of the stem
the increase of width of the stem is what type of growth
secondary

supporting structure that connects roots and leaves of a plant
stem
vascular tissue gathered in leaves
vein
coal consists of fossilized remains of
club mosses
an increase In the size of the fruit is stimulated by
gibberelinns
the group of cells that is located at the petiole and seals off the leaf off from the vascular system In preparation for winter dormacy
abscission layer

xerophyte
a plant that grows directly on the body of another but still produces its own food
epiphyte
