Plant Transport System
Cards (40)
- Absorb water and nutrients from the soil, anchor the plant in the ground, and store food reserves.
- Support the plant, transport water and nutrients, and produces new leaves, flowers, and branches.
- Produces food for the plant through photosynthesis, transpire water, and exchange gases.
- Attract pollinators, produces seeds, and facilitate reproduction.
- Protects seeds, aid in seed dispersal, and provide food for animals.
- Contain the embryo and provide nourishment for the new plant, allowing it to germinate and grow.
- The tissue in vascular plants that conducts water and dissolved nutrients upward from the root an also helps to form the woody element in the stem.
- The tissue in vascular plants that conducts sugars nd other metabolic products downward from the leaves.
- The process where plants absorb water through the roots and then give off water vapor through pores in their leaves.
- The upward push of sap in the xylem of vascular plants, resulting from osmotic pressure in the roots.
- Ability of a liquid to flow in narrow spaces without the assistance of, or even in opposition to, external forces like gravity.
- Series of elongated cells in phloem, through which food materials are transported in vascular plants.
- The transport of soluble food material from one part of a plant to another.
- One of the two specialized cells that border a stoma and regulate gas exchange and water loss.
- Tiny openings on pores in plant tissue that allow for gas exchange (Plural form of Stoma).
- Can produce their own food, best examples are plants.
- Cannot produce their own food and rely on others to consume food. Best examples are humans and animals.
- The tiny tubes in the xylem.
- The sugar that the photosynthesis produces.
- Loss of water vapor through stomata.
