Ana conducts an investigation on flowers. She takes two glasses and fills them with plain water. Ana adds blue food coloring to one of the glasses. She then places the same type of flower in each glass. The next day, she compares the flowers.
Plants need one day to change color
Plants take in water through their roots
Stems change color when placed in a glass
Stems transport water to the rest of the plant
Hummingbirds drink nectar from the flowers of plants. Which is a common characteristic between the hummingbird and the flower?
Both are able to hibernate
Both are able to reproduce
Both use nutrients from the soil
Both use energy for photosynthesis
Which one of these correctly describes what occurs during photosynthesis?
Plants take in sunlight and carbon dioxide, and produce food and oxygen
Plants take in food and sunlight, and produce carbon dioxide and oxygen
Plants take in oxygen and sunlight, and produce carbon dioxide and chlorophyll
Plants take in carbon dioxide and oxygen, and produce food and chlorophyll
How do some plants attract pollinators
Leaves collect sunlight for photosynthesis
Flowers have bright colors and give off scents
Plants produce fruits that taste sweet
Roots absorb nutrients and water
Why does a plant's transport of sugar differ from its transport of water?
Sugar is made in a plant's stem, while water is taken in through a plant's leaves
Sugar is made in a plant's roots, while water is taken in through a plant's stem
Sugar is made in a plant's leaves, while water is taken in through a plant's stem
Sugar is made in a plant's leaves, while water is taken in through a plant's roots

Mr. Turner cut the stem of a water plant. He put the plant in a cup full of water under a light. The students in Mr. Turner's class observed bubbles coming out of the stem. What are the bubbles being released by the plant?
carbon dioxide
helium
hydrogen
oxygen
What is the process by which pollen is transferred from the stamen (male reproductive structure) to the pistil (female reproductive structure)
photosynthesis
pollination
respiration
dormancy
What is the green pigment that allows plants to change the Sun's energy into chemical energy?
glucose
chlorophyll
mitochondria
photosynthesis
Tamara planted two plants in identical pots. She covered one plant with a black bucket and left one plant uncovered. Tamara thinks the covered plants will die. Why would covering this plant with a dark bucket most likely cause it to die?
because the plant needs a lot of room to grow
because the plant needs sunlight for photosynthesis
because the bucket keeps the plant from getting enough oxygen
because the bucket keeps the plant from absorbing water through the roots
Animals get energy from eating food what comes from plants. Plants survive by taking in substances that are released by animals. What substance do animals release that plants take in?
carbon dioxide
oxygen
salt
sugar
Which process passes genetic information from plants to their offspring?
germination
pollination
photosynthesis
adaptation
How can the transfer of pollen occur?
wind
water, rain
animals
all the above
