what are the similarities between plant and animal systems (3)
- both have a transport systems to move water and nutrients
- both need to exchange gasses with their surroundings
- both must be able to reproduce
what are the differnces between plant and animal systems (2)
- plants make their own food through photosynthesis because they cant move.
- they do not contain complex organ systems
what are the two body systems of typical floweirng plants

what does the root system of a plant do
absorbs water and minerals from the soil and stores food
what does the shoot system of a plant do
conducts photosynthesis ans allows for sexual reproduction.

true. we eat apple children.
what are the types of tissue systems in plants
dermal, ground, and vascular
what are stem cells called in plants

what are characteristics of animal cells (6)
animal cells have a cell membrane, no chloroplasts, small vacuoles, some flagellum, and centrioles. they are roundish, where plant cells are square.
