Unit 3: Trees
Across
- 4. when a concentration of particles within a solution is high
- 6. the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration use the same components, just in a reversed order, so they are said to be exact ____________ of each other
- 8. type of energy required for photosynthesis to occur
- 9. the acronym for the main elements found in DNA
- 11. holes in leaves that allow for gas exchange
- 15. storage of excess glucose
- 16. vascular tissue of a plan the transports glucose to various parts of the tree
- 17. specific type of cell respiration that requires the presense of oxygen; takes place within the mitochondria
- 19. type of complex sugar that makes up dietary fiber and provides strength to the stem/stalk/trunk of a plant/tree; also found in cell walls
- 20. the energy molecule created by cell respiration
- 23. the uptake of water by diffusing into cells
- 24. nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium taken in by the tree with water
- 27. when a concentration of particles within a solution is low
- 29. an additional layer in plant cells that provide strength and rigidity
- 30. used in the cell division of plants only
Down
- 1. the building blocks of protein that are made up of C, O, H, and N
- 2. process of dividing the DNA in cell division; used to make identical copies of cells for growth and repair
- 3. gas released by animals and taken in by plants
- 5. when a concentration of particles within a solution in equal both inside and outside of the cell/solution
- 7. the process used by plants to make glucose
- 10. a fungus which grows in association with the roots of a plant in a symbiotic relationship
- 12. the process that converts glucose into energy in the mitochondria of cells
- 13. specific type of cell respiration that occurs with oxygen is NOT available; occurs outside of the mitochondria in the cytoplasm
- 14. organelle in plant leaves that is the location for photosynthesis
- 18. a sugar molecule made up of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen
- 21. organelle in both plants and animals that is the location of cellular respiration
- 22. a simple sugar made by photosynthesis with the molecular formula of C6H12O6
- 25. vacular tissue of a plant that transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves
- 26. the result of increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels
- 28. gas released by plants and taken in by animals
