Where does photosynthesis take place
Chloroplast
Xylem
Carry water and ions up from roots
Phoelm
Carry dissolved food (glucose) around plant
Epidermal tissues
Covers surface and protects plant
Palisade mesophyll
Contain chloroplasts for photosynthesis
Spongy mesophyll
For exchanging gaasses through diffusion
What’s the opening in the leaf called
Stomata
Do hydrogen bonds stick together?
Yes
What chemical coats the walls of the xylem making it more waterproof?
Lignin
How are leaves adapted to photosynthesis
Broad-large surface area
Chlorophyll -absorbs light energy
Stomata -holes in leave for co2
Veins-bring plenty of water to the leaves
