  1. 2. It has an epidermis that is several layers thick for retaining moisture.
  2. 5. It means wreath and distinct in C4 plants.
  3. 6. The leaf structure where photosynthesis occurs.
  4. 7. A flattened stem capable of photosynthesis.
  5. 8. An evolutionary process that enhances the survivability and fits an organism to their environment.
  6. 12. Spatial separation
  7. 16. A wasteful process that converts oxygen into a product useful in photosynthesis.
  8. 17. Specialized leaves that arose in some plant species due to the low presence of nutrients in the soil of their environment.
  9. 18. A six-carbon compound that is the ultimate product of photosynthesis.
