1.
3 different tissue types: 1. Dermal tissue: outer covering
2. Vascular tissue: transports substances
3. Ground tissue: fills spaces between dermal and vascular tissue
2.
annual: lives and reproduces within 1 year
3.
anther: produces pollen
4.
apical meristem: meristem found in tips of roots and shoots
5.
biennial: lives 2 years and reproduces in 2nd year
6.
buds: undeveloped shoots
7.
cork cambium: makes new cork, which becomes part of bark
8.
cotyledon: provides nutrients to embryo
9.
filament: holds up anther
10.
function of roots: anchor a plant and absorb minerals and water
-fibrous root
-tap root
11.
function of shoots: transport water & nutrients from the roots to the leaves and food from the leaves to the roots
12.
germination: embryo in seed begins to grow again and develop into a plant
environmental conditions cue germination
-usually warm, moist soil
-some only germinate after going through a cold place
-some require the heat of a fire

14.
leaf: main site of photosynthesis
15.
meristem: cells that generate new cells that will later differentiate
16.
ovary: protects ovules and becomes fruit
17.
ovule: egg
18.
perennial: lives and reproduces many years
19.
petal: attracts pollinators
20.
petiole: connects leaf to stem
21.
pistil: female part of flower
22.
pollination and double fertilization: Pollen is carried from anther to stigma of a flower of same species. A pollen tube grows toward the ovary through the style. When the pollen reaches to ovary it releases two sperm: one fertilizes the egg to from zygote, the other fertilizes the large central cell to form the endosperm.
23.
primary growth: vertical growth
24.
receptacle: holds flower
25.
secondary growth: growth in width
26.
seed coat: coating that protects embryo
27.
seed dispersal: -wind: need many seeds, can be distributed long distances
-animal: food for animal or can travel on animal
-water: is carried by water, ex. coconut
28.
sepal: protects bud
29.
stamen: male part of flower
30.
stigma: capture pollen
31.
style: transports sperm to egg
32.
vascular cambium: make new xylem and phloem
33.
vegetative reproduction: asexual reproduction in plants
-offspring are clones
-drop stems or other shoots that establish new roots and become clones
-send out shoots from the base of their trunks that go underground and create a new clone
