plant structure
Across
- 1. nutrient and water absorption occurs causing cells to increase in size
- 3. prepares protein for export; synthesizes steroids
- 7. capture energy from sunlight and use it to make food for the plant
- 9. processes and packages substances made by the cell
- 11. area of active cell division and growth (root tip)
- 12. synthesizes ribosomes and RNA and stores DNA
- 13. contribute to cell support and division
- 14. growing points located at the tips of stems
- 17. organize protein production
- 18. the area of the stem located between nodes
- 19. converts energy from organic compounds to energy for cellular activities
Down
- 1. cells undergo changes to become specific tissues
- 2. growing points located in the leaf axils
- 4. digest old organelles and foreign substances
- 5. connect the roots and leaves
- 6. semi-permeable structure that separates the cellular contents from the outside
- 8. attract pollinators and produce seeds and fruit
- 10. the parenchyma layer at the center of a stem
- 15. the point of leaf attachment to the stem
- 16. provide support; absorb water & nutrients
