  1. 3. Term to describe plants that contain chemicals in which they affect the nervous system
  2. 7. Thin-walled cells that are living at maturity and is the location of where photosynthesis occurs and where water is stored
  3. 10. Thin-walled cells that are living at maturity. Conducts sugars throughout the plant and are composed of Seive Tubes
  4. 13. Type of tissue that consist of undifferentiated cells found where growth takes place
  5. 14. Type of tissues that perform cellular processes to support growth and development, store carbohydrate, especially starch, and support/protect the plant body
  6. 16. The photosynthetic middle layer of cells in the leaf of a terrestrial plant
  7. 17. Plant growth that primarily focuses on the growth of the thickness of the plant (diameter)
  8. 19. One of the major divisions of plants that start with a V
  9. 21. The site of photosynthesis and gas exchange
  10. 22. A protective tissue that replaces the epidermis during secondary growth providing a water-repellant coating
  11. 25. The opening in leaves through which gases pass in and out of the leaves
  12. 26. Type of tissues that transport water and nutrients and also support the plant body
  13. 28. The main source of the chemical energy plants need for growth, maintenance, and development
  14. 29. The outermost cell layer of the plant
Down
  1. 1. The major region of the plant help the area of growth with relation to length
  2. 2. Tissues that produce secondary cell walls and are dead at maturity. Makes the plant rigid and strong and are composed of lignin and cellulose
  3. 4. The part of the plant that includes all the root material
  4. 5. One of the major divisions of plants that start with a N
  5. 6. Plant growth that produces the body parts of the plants and primarily focuses on the growth of length
  6. 8. Thick-walled cells that are dead at maturity. Is responsible for transporting water and minerals throughout the plant
  7. 9. A process ALL plants go through to obtain nutrients from the sun
  8. 11. Type of tissues that protect against injury, herbivores, disease, and water loss
  9. 12. The main molecule that all cell walls of plants are made out of
  10. 15. Thick-walled cells for greater flexibility that are living at maturity and help strengthen the plant
  11. 18. The major region of the plant that help produce cells within the roots and shoot that contribute to the diameter of the plant for growth
  12. 20. The part of the plant that includes the leaves and stem
  13. 23. Tissue composed of loosely packed parenchyma cells with large pores. Usually found in aquatic plants
  14. 24. Kidney-shaped cells that control the opening and closing of the stoma
  15. 27. A waxy layer that covers the epidermis and protects the plant from water loss and invading microbes
