Which of the following is not a function of epidermal tissue?

The outermost layer of CELLS of the leaf is the

_____________________ is a vascular tissue that carries sugars and other foods throughout a plant.

This tissue covers the outside of a plant in a single layer of cells called the epidermis.

This tissue makes up much of the interior of a plant and carries out basic metabolic functions. In stems, it provides support and may store food or water. In roots, it may also store food.

This tissue runs through the ground tissue inside a plant. It is made up of vessels that transport water, minerals, and nutrients through the plant.

This vessel makes up part of the vascular tissue of a plant. It carries water and dissolved ions from the roots to the stems and leaves.

This vessel carries dissolved sugars from the leaves to all other parts of the plant.

Epidermal cells secrete a waxy substance called _____, which coats, waterproofs, and protects the above-ground parts of plants.

Within the epidermis, thousands of pairs of bean-shaped cells called ________, swell and shrink by osmosis to open and close tiny pores which control the exchange of gases and the release of water vapor.

Within the epidermis, thousands of pairs of bean-shaped cells swell and shrink to open and close _______, which are tiny pores that control the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide gases and the release of water vapor.

This type of tissue is capable of cell division (mitosis).

What process do plants go through to create glucose

Organisms that collect the energy from the sun and turn it into organic compounds.

The sugar produced by plants from photosynthesis that gives the plant energy/food

Process plants use to make their own “food” from the sun's energy, carbon dioxide, & water.

The location in which photosynthesis takes place; uses light energy to make food(glucose)

Chemicals on the left side of the chemical equation (CO2, Water, Sunlight)

Chemicals on the right side of the equation; what is produced (Oxygen and Glucose)

Located in the leaf and lets in carbon dioxide and lets out oxygen

Plants benefit animals & atmosphere by producing ________.

Sunlight enters the plant through the

Oxygen is released into the air through the

Solar energy is converted into _____and water through photosynthesis.
