plants

4. A chemical process used by plants to make glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water, using light energy. Oxygen is produced as a by-product of photosynthesis. Algae subsumed within plants and some bacteria are also photosynthetic.
5. the loss of water from leaves by evaporation through the stomata.
7. Groups of xylem and phloem tissue in a plant.
10. The plant tissue in a leaf which has loosely packed cells and air spaces between them to allow gas exchange.
14. Cells of the epidermis, the outer covering layer of an organism.
15. Plant tissue containing closely packed cells in the upper layer of a leaf.

1. The transport of molecules against their concentration gradient from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.
2. Cells which open and close the stomata in leaves
3. Cells that help the phloem to transport substances by providing energy.
6. the transport of dissolved material within a plant.
8. Tiny holes in the epidermis (skin) of a leaf. They control gas exchange by opening and closing and are involved in loss of water from leaves. Singular is stoma.
9. Cells that have no nuclei and are connected to each other by their cytoplasm.
11. Phloem moves sugar that the plant has produced by photosynthesis to where it is needed
12. The xylem transports water and minerals from the roots up the plant stem and into the leaves.
13. Carbohydrate material lining the xylem vessels providing strength and support.
