Plants, Their Systems, & Tropisms

How do Stomata help a plant maintain homeostasis? (select all that apply)

• They regulate/control water gain through transpiration.

• They allow gas exchange for photosynthesis.

• They regulate/control water loss through transpiration.

• They allow carbon dioxide in but no oxygen to leave.

Specific type of plant tissue that transports water and minerals from the roots, through the stems, to leaves

• vascular plant

• nonvascular plant

• xylem

• phloem

What is the function of root hair?

• it is a place to store the food and gas

• it increases surface area to absorb more water

Xylem and phloem are examples of _ tissue

• Spores
• Nonvascular
• Seeds
• Vascular

Two cells that regulate the size of the stomata depending on temperature and

water conditions

• Phloem

• Xylem

• Stomata

• Guard Cells

The function of the phloem is to

• transport food/glucose and hormones throughout the plant.

• transport water up the plant until its lost through transpiration.

• transport food/glucose and hormones up the plant.

• attract bees for pollination.

The function of roots is (select all that apply)

• Absorb water and minerals from the soil.

• Anchor the plant in the soil.

• Respire & Food Storage

• Transport glucose made during photosynthesis to the soil.

• Perform photosynthesis.

The function of leaves is (select all that apply)

• Absorb water and minerals.

• Anchor the plant in the soil.

• Exchange gases through the stomata.

• Perform photosynthesis.

• Allow water loss through the stomata.

What is the main purpose of the vascular tissues?

• Absorption

• Transport

• Photosynthesis

• Transpiration

• skin; integumentary

• skin; endocrine

• veins; circulatory

• lungs; respiratory
