Across
  1. 3. plant tissue that moves sugar down a plant from leaves to stem to root
  2. 4. photosynthetic organism that "produces" it's own food - means the same as autotroph
  3. 6. organ of the plant responsible for taking in water and nutrients from the soil
  4. 11. photosynthetic organisms in aquatic environments
  5. 13. microscopic holes through which plants "breathe" or exchange gasses - mostly located on the underside of the leaf
  6. 15. C6H12O6
  7. 16. process by which plants and plantlike organism use the sun's energy to produce sugar
  8. 18. plant tissue that moves water up a plant from roots to stems to leaves
  9. 19. areas of the plants where sugar is stored as simple sugars or starch
  10. 20. middle layer of the leaf where photosynthesis occurs - cells contain chloroplasts
Down
  1. 1. raw materials, or reactants, needed for photosynthesis
  2. 2. products of photosynthesis
  3. 5. gas that exits the stomata of the leaf
  4. 7. by-product of photosynthesis
  5. 8. cell part, or organelle, responsible for the process of photosynthesis
  6. 9. green pigment found in certain plant cells that traps the sun's energy during the process of photosynthesis
  7. 10. pair of crescent shaped cells that open and close the stomata
  8. 12. main organ of photosynthesis in a plant
  9. 14. organism that has to "consume" or eat other organisms for energy
  10. 17. gas that enters the stomata of the leaf
