GRADE 6 -KEYWORDS- TERM 2-U1-M2-L4-Cell Moving Materials

Groups of similar cells that work together to perform a specific function.

• Organs
• Cells
• Tissues
• Systems

Movement of water molecules from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration, aiming to equalize the concentrations on both sides.

• Diffusion
• Osmosis
• Active transport
• Filtration

Molecules move from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration it does not require energy input.

• Osmosis
• Diffusion
• Active transport
• Facilitated diffusion

Specialized plant tissue composed of tubelike cells that transport water and nutrients.

• Cortex tissue
• Epidermal tissue
• Vascular tissue (xylem and phloem)
• Ground tissue

Carries water and dissolved nutrients from the roots to the stem and leaves.

 

 

• Phloem
• Chloroplast
• Stomata
• Xylem

Tissue in plants responsible for transporting organic nutrients from  leaves during photosynthesis to other parts of the plant.

• Phloem
• Cortex
• Parenchyma
• Xylem

Outermost layer of cells in plants and animals, serving as a protective barrier.

• Periderm (in plants)
• Cuticle (in plants)
• Epidermis (in plants) / Epithelium (in animals)
• Dermis (in animals)

Small pores found on the surface of plant leaves, stems, and other aerial parts, primarily responsible for gas exchange and transpiration

• Lenticels
• Chloroplasts
• Xylem
• Stomata

Process by which water is lost as vapor from the aerial parts of a plant, primarily through the stomata of leaves.

• Photosynthesis
• Transpiration
• Evaporation
• Condensation

Act of taking air into the lungs

 

• Exhalation
• Inhalation
• Respiration
• Ventilation
