Chapter 2 Flashcards
An undeveloped plant with stored food sealed in a protective covering is a
Seed
The protective layer of a leaf is the
Epidermis
Pollen is carried from a flower’ s anther to its pistil during
Pollenation
The egg cell in a flower can be found in the flower’s
Ovary
A plant makes its own food by
Photosynthesis
The substance in the trap sunlight and gives leaves they’re there green color is
Chlorophyll
A plant breaks apart sugars to get energy during
Respiration
The joining of a female sex cell and a male sex cell into one cell is process of
Fertilization
Tiny openings on the underside that helps control the leaf water loss are
Stomata
The threadlike cells on the that take in water and minerals from the soil
Root hairs
The process of a seed sprouting new plant Is called
Germination
Some plants do not reprodce but rather was you special cells called
Spore
Extra water in a plant exit the plant thought
Transpiration
And under the plant was stored that is sealed in a protective covering is called a
Seed
When is seed sprouts into a new plant the process is called
Germination
All seeds develop the same way by growing from a seed to a what and into an adult plant
A seedling
How long does it take some balance like a bean plant to go from a seed to an adult plant
Months
However it takes a Peachtree how long to go from a seed to an adult plant
Several years
What to mow seeds need to germinate
Water and warm temperatures
In a plant male sex cells are found in
Pollen
Pollen is produced by a part of the flower that is known as the
Anther
The female sex cells or the eggs are in the part of the plant known as the
Pistil
The transfer of pollen grain to the pistoi is called
Pollination
Since plants cannot move from one place to another they rely on what to help with pollination
Insects, birds, mammals, wind, or water
After pollination the female sex cell and the male sex cells join into one cell, a fertilized egg, in the process of
Fertilization
What is the structure containing the egg cells
The ovary
A part of the sea that has beginnings of a route stem and leaves is
Embryo
What two things can a parent plant block that a ceiling needs to grow
Sunlight and water
Some plants scatter their own seeds but others are carried away by what
Animals, wind or water
What is the purpose of a flower
To make it seeds that would grow into new plants
For plant lifecycle to continuous feeding less live a long enough to produce what
New seeds
Almost plants have flowers and produce need some plants have what
Spores That can grow into a new plan
to grow into moss plants that have both what
Male and female branches
The fertilized egg of a moss plant grows into a thin stalk with what
A spores case on top that contains spores
