Which of the following belong to the female reproductive structure of the flower?
sepal
stamen
pistil
anther
The internal transport of water and minerals in plants requires that two systems work together. Which of the following describes how the two systems accomplish this?
absorption through the root system--transport through the shoot system by vascular tissue and stomata in leaf tissue
exchange of minerals for water in the root system--transport of minerals through phloem to leaves in the stem system
transpiration by the guard cell and leaf systems--sweating into the soil by the root system
absorption of water by the leaf system--transport through the meristem system
Look at the image. What is one way we can measure the rate of photosynthesis?
by adding more water
by increasing the light stimulus
by counting the oxygen bubbles
by increasing the carbon dioxide
An animal can wound a tree by scratching away the bark. The tree can respond to the wound in many ways. Usually sap quickly covers the wound, and then the tree covers the wound with new cell growth. What process works most directly with the tree’s transport system to heal the wound?
mitosis
glucose storage
photosynthesis
water absorption
A honey bee is collecting nectar from a flower, pollen clinging to the bee's body is deposited on the reproductive organs of the flower, resulting in fertilization. Which of the following describes pollen's function in a flower?
pollen is the female gamete in a flower
pollen is the fertilized egg of a flower
pollen is the male gamete of a flower
pollen has no function in a flower
The plant hormone auxin
stimulates cell elongation
causes the ripening of fruit
causes a dramatic increase in plant size
stimulates cytokinesis
Which flower structure holds the male gamete?
Anther
Filament
Ovary
Stigma
A reasonable human comparison for the vascular bundle in plants could be
the immune system
the circulatory system
the nervous system
the digestive system
Label the plant with the correct process or structure.
Which system interactions are dependent on the plant's ability to respond to the direction of light?
A flower has both male and female reproductive structures and is shown in the image.
Which statement best describes an interaction that will allow a flowering plant to reproduce through self-pollination?
an anther is transferred from a filament to another filament within the same flower
an ovule is transferred from the ovary to a petal on a different flower
a pollen grain is transferred from an anther to the stigma of the same flower
An ovary is transferred from a flower on one plant to a flower on a different plant
The (a) is the male reproductive structure in a flowering plant. It produces pollen, which contains sperm.
The (a) is the female reproductive structure of a flowering plant. It receives and transports pollen to the ovule.
Several structures work together to allow flowering plants to reproduce. The diagram shows a typical flower. Which table correctly identifies the function of each structure or group of structures in the reproduction of the plant?
Plants called sundews have rounded green leaves with many hair-like structures. The ends of these structures contain enzymes in a sticky liquid that looks like nectar or moisture, as shown in the picture. The hairs do not react to dust or nonliving material but will bend inward when insects get caught in the sticky liquid. Sundews digest trapped insects over a period of a few days. Based on this information, what functions do the specialized leaves of sundews perform?
Provide water to the plant and perform photosynthesis
Respond to stimuli and anchor the plant
Provide nutrients to the plant and respond to stimuli
Release pollen to insects and perform photosynthesis
What is the role of oxygen in photosynthesis and in cellular respiration?
Oxygen is used in photosynthesis to produce glucose and is released during cellular respiration
Oxygen is released in photosynthesis and is used in cellular respiration to produce energy
Oxygen is combined with carbon dioxide in photosynthesis to release energy and released from carbon dioxide during cellular respiration
Oxygen is released from glucose during photosynthesis and combines with carbon dioxide to produce energy during cellular respiration
Which of these is NOT an interaction between a plant’s root and shoot systems?
The roots absorb water from the soil to prevent leaves from drying up
The phloem transports sugars from the leaves to root nodules for storage
Nutrients are absorbed from the soil and moved to stems
The stomata open up to allow carbon dioxide to enter the leaves
Which plant structures are DIRECTLY involved in the production and transport of glucose?
Select TWO correct answers.
Label the table.
Using your knowledge of plants and photosynthesis, label the diagram.
Using your knowledge of plants and photosynthesis, label the diagram.
Select the part of the flower that is responsible for the initial pollen collection prior to pollinating the ovary.
Label the parts of a flower
Which molecules would we see more of in our atmosphere if trees were removed?
O2
CO2
Nitrogen
Carbon
