1.
angiosperm: plants having seeds in a closed ovary
2.
cotyledon: A "seed leaf" which develops as a part of the seed. It provides nutrients to the developing seedling and eventually becomes the first leaf of the plant.
3.
fruit: the ripened ovary of a flowering seed plant
4.
gymnosperm: a plant that produces seeds that are not enclosed by a protective covering
5.
leaves: The main photosynthetic organs of vascular plants.
6.
monocot: has one cotyledon, parallel veins, flower parts in multiples of 3
7.
ovary: (vertebrates) one of usually two organs that produce ova and secrete estrogen and progesterone
8.
ovule: A structure that develops within the ovary of a seed plant and contains the female gametophyte.
9.
phloem: vascular tissue responsible for the transport of nutrients and the carbohydrates produced by photosynthesis
10.
pollen grain: male gametophyte in seed plants
11.
pollen tube: a tube formed after germination of the pollen grain; carries the male gametes into the ovule
12.
pollination: the transfer of pollen from male reproductive structures to female reproductive structures in plants
13.
roots: Absorbs water and minerals from the ground. Anchors plant in ground.
14.
seed: a structure that contains a young plant inside a protective covering
15.
seed coat: structure that surrounds and protects a plant embryo and keeps it from drying out
16.
stem: supporting structure that connects roots and leaves and carries water and nutrients between them
17.
vascular tissue: Plant tissue consisting of cells joined into tubes that transport water and nutrients throughout the plant body.
18.
xylem: the woody part of plants: the supporting and water-conducting tissue, consisting primarily of tracheids and vessels
