3.
Chlorophyll: A green pigment found in chloroplasts of plants.
4.
Cuticle: The waxy waterproof layer that covers the leaves and stems of most plants.
5.
Fermentation: The process by which cells break down simple food molecules to release energy they contain.
6.
Herbaceous Stem: Stem with little to no woody tissue.
7.
