Plants and Photosynthesis
Across
- 1. A large molecule made from many smaller glucose molecules joined together
- 3. The cells that control the size of the stomata
- 4. The mineral ion which reacts with glucose to make amino acids
- 9. The gas produced during photosynthesis
- 10. The plant tissue that transport sugars around the plant
- 12. The plant tissue where most photosynthesis takes place
- 13. The cell structure where photosynthesis happens
- 16. The type of reaction photosynthesis is because it takes in energy from the surroundings
- 17. The mineral ion which plants need to make chlorophyll
- 18. The plant tissue that transports water up the plant
Down
- 2. What term describe water being taken up by the roots, transported up the plant and lost from the leaves (13, 6)
- 5. The process by which water is lost from the leaves
- 6. Chemical which speeds up reactions, including photosynthesis, in living things
- 7. Layer of cells lining the upper and lower surface of a leaf
- 8. Small holes through carbon dioxide enters the leaf and water is lost
- 11. The process that transports glucose around the plant
- 14. The plant organ that absorbs water and mineral ions from the soil
- 15. The green substance that absorbs (sun)light
