Plants are autotrophs and they use photosynthesis to create carbohydrates such as glucose. Some of it is readily used while a lot of it is transferred and stored in different parts of the organism via the xylem and phloem. Humans do something similar; choose the body system that works together in order to produce similar results.

• Integumentary and Circulatory system

• Digestive system and circulatory system

• Respiratory system and circulatory system

• Lymphatic system and muscular system

The function of the plant root is to -

• make food for the plant

• get rid of waste products

WHat is the correct tendency of a plant to grow towardslight?

• Thigmotropism

• gravitropism

• hydrotropism

• phototropism

When a fly lands on a leaf of a Venus Fly Trap (Dionaea muscipula), the leaf closes. This is an example of -

• Thigmotropism

• gravitropism

• hydrotropism

• phototropism

In order for plants to survive, why must its different systems interact?

• because each individual system is specialized and cannot function on its own

• because all of the different systems need to function independently

• plants do not have separate systems therefore they cannot interact

• none of the above
