Plants and photosynthesis

• Xylem 


  Transports tissue in vascular plants. Transports water from the roots
• Pholem


  living tissue in vascular plants that transports soluble organic compounds
• stomata

  A pore found on the bottom of the leaves, regulates gas exchange
• root hair cell adaptations


  Having a large surface area to increase the rate of absorption
• Transpiration 


  the process of losing water through the surface or skin of a body or a plant
• Translocation 


  A genetic change in which a piece of one chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome
• paliside cell adaptation

  • Chloroplasts – these aid with photosynthesis in the cell.
  • A tall shape – so they have a large surface area exposed to absorbing Carbon Dioxide.
  • A thin shape – a lot of cells can be fitted at the top of the leaf which is nearer the light.
