Down
  1. 2. The process by which water evaporates from plant leaves, helping with nutrient transport and cooling.
  2. 4. The outer protective layer of a plant, including the epidermis.
  3. 5. The stalk that connects the stigma to the ovary in the pistil.
  4. 7. An organism that consumes other organisms for food.
  5. 8. Leaf-like structures that protect the developing flower bud.
  6. 12. A non-flowering plant that produces seeds exposed on cones.
  7. 14. A molecule that carries energy within cells.
  8. 16. The stalk that supports the anther in the stamen.
  9. 19. A layer of actively dividing cells between xylem and phloem that contributes to secondary growth.
  10. 20. Vascular tissue that transports sugars from leaves to other parts of the plant.
  11. 22. Underground plant structures that absorb water and nutrients and anchor the plant.
  12. 24. Often colorful parts of a flower that attract pollinators.
  13. 25. Cells that surround stomata and regulate their opening and closing.
  14. 26. The male reproductive part of a flower, consisting of the anther and filament.
