- hold up anthers
- female gametophyte
- protects the roots as they grow
- Cells that regulate the stomata
- increase surface area so roots can absorb more water and nutrients
- female reproductive parts of a plant
- small openings in leaf epidermis that allow gas exchange
- tube between stigma and ovaries
- male reproductive parts of a plant
- attracts pollinators
- carry water up from the roots
Down
- secondary growth tissue

- collects pollen
- transports products of photosynthesis from leaves to rest of plant
- protects flower
