Plant Structure & Interactions

Hotspot

Identify the flower.

Hotspot

Identify the root hairs.

Hotspot

Identify the stem.

Hotspot

Identify the roots.

Hotspot

Identify the leaves.

Hotspot

Identify the Xylem.

Hotspot

Identify the Phloem.

Hotspot

Identify the Fruit.

Hotspot

Identify the Vascular System.

Hotspot

Identify the Reproductive System.

Hotspot

Identify the Shoot System.

Hotspot

Identify the Root System.

Hotspot

Identify the Stomata, which allows the plant to take in CO2 and release O2 waste.

Hotspot

Identify what transports water and mineral-nutrients from roots throughout the plant.

Hotspot

Identify what transports sap, a water-based solution rich in sugars made by photosynthesis.

Hotspot

Identify where fertilization happens.

Hotspot

Identify where fertilization happens.

Hotspot

Identify where photosynthesis happens.

Hotspot

Identify what absorbs water and minerals.

Hotspot

Identify what has specialized storage organs for storing energy in the form of carbohydrates.

Example: Root Tubers (Sweet Potato) & Stem Tuber (Potato), Bulbs (Onion), Rhizomes (Ginger), and Storage Taproot (Carrot).

Hotspot

Identify the movement of water up the plant.

Hotspot

Identify where seeds are produced.

Hotspot

Identify what is responsible for the transport of sugars to non-photosynthetic parts of the plant, such as the roots, or into storage structures, such as tubers or bulbs.

Hotspot

Identify what is the seed bearing structure that helps the plant disperse their offspring.

Hotspot

Identify the vascular tissues used to move hormones from one part of the plant to another.

Hotspot

Identify what absorbs light.

Hotspot

Identify the movement of sugar and water up and down the plant.

Hotspot

Identify seed dispersal

Hotspot

Identify what contains pollen and tiny eggs called ovules; after pollination, these structures develop into a fruit.

Hotspot

Identify what anchors the plant into the soil.

Hotspot

Identify what holds leaves up so they can collect sunlight.

Hotspot

Sugars made in photosynthesis are transported to roots and stored as carbohydrates.

Hotspot

Carbohydrates stored in roots are sometimes needed in leaf cells when light or water is not available for the plant to undergo photosynthesis.

Hotspot

Water absorbed in soil is used in Photosynthesis.

Hotspot

Certain growth hormones are produced in root cells but trigger growth of new leaves.

Hotspot

Sugars made in Photosynthesis are stored in sweet, fleshy tissue that surrounds seeds.

Hotspot

Micro-Nutrients absorbed from soil gives flower petals a certain smell.

Hotspot

Root Cells like all cells, get their energy by converting energy into ATP in a process called Cellular Respiration. This sugar comes from other parts of the plant that can convert sunlight into sugar.

Hotspot

A hormone called abscisic acid (ABA) is produced by the roots when drought is sensed in the soil. ABA signals the guard cells to close.

Hotspot

Identify the Anther.

Hotspot

Identify the Filament

Hotspot

Identify the Stigma

Hotspot

Identify the Style

Hotspot

Identify the Ovary

Hotspot

Identify the Ovule

Hotspot

Identify where pollen is made.

Hotspot

Identify the Carpel

(SOMETIMES CALLED THE PISTIL)

Hotspot

Identify where fertilization happens.

Hotspot

Identify where pollinators, such as bees or the wind, deposit pollen on this sticky structure.

Hotspot

Identify where male gametes are produced.

Hotspot

Identify where female gametes will be fertilized by pollen and turn into a seed.

Hotspot

Identify where a pollen tube is formed as the pollen moves down the structure toward the ovary.

Hotspot

Identify what will eventually turn into a fruit, which is a fleshy sweet tissue that surrounds the developing seed.

Hotspot

Pollen is transferred to the pistil where it will eventually fertilize the ovule.

Hotspot

Insects sometimes help flowers in the reproduction process. For an insect to pollinate, it must transport pollen from the ________ to the _________.
