Biology Module #14
Across
- 2. Living vascular tissue that carries sugar and organic substances throughout a plant.
- 4. The process of cutting away a ring of inner and outer bark all the way around a tree trunk.
- 5. Nonliving vascular tissue that carries water and dissolved minerals from the roots of a plant to its leaves.
- 7. The parts of a plant (such as flowers, fruits and seeds) involved in reproduction.
- 8. A plant that loses its leaves for winter.
- 12. Cells that have not specialized in any particular function.
- 14. The characteristics of the leaf edge.
- 15. Plants that live for only one year.
- 16. Plants that live for two years.
- 17. The study of plants.
Down
- 1. In alternation of generations, the generation that occupies the largest portion of the life cycle.
- 3. A life cycle in which there is both a multicellular diploid form and a multicellular haploid form.
- 6. The parts of a plant (such as stems, roots and leaves) that are not involved in reproduction
- 9. A "seed leaf" which develops as a part of the seed. It provides nutrients to the developing seedling and eventually becomes the first leaf of the plant.
- 10. The arrangement of leaves on the stem of a plant.
- 11. Plants that grow year after year.
- 13. A fine dust that contains the sperm of seed-producing plants.
