Plant Structure and Function
Across
- 3. supports height of plant and contains conducting tissue
- 4. increases surface area for roots
- 6. Protects the growing tip of the root
- 8. hormone that promotes side bud growth
- 9. live several years and reproduce a lot
- 10. life cycle in one growing season
- 12. promotes seed germination
- 14. movement of nutrients from one part of the plant to another
- 17. plants response to light (auxin)
- 19. seasonal patterns of flowering, growth, and development
- 20. plants response to touch
- 21. primary place for photosynthesis and gas exchange for a plant
- 23. above ground part of plant that keeps leaves and flowers off ground
Down
- 1. plants response to gravity
- 2. increases stem and root width
- 5. releasing water via the stomates
- 7. hormone that promotes cell elongation
- 9. conducts the by-products out of the plant
- 11. conducts the water up the plant via capillary action
- 13. this layer of epidermis that covers the plant
- 15. where photosynthesis happens, storage, support
- 16. life cycle in two growing seasons
- 17. active area of growth in plant concerned with height
- 18. anchors the plant, stores food, conducts raw materials from soil to plant
- 22. promotes fruit ripening (gas)
