Plants and Photosynthesis
Across
- 5. The inner tissue of a leaf
- 6. Plant shoots grow towards light due to this property
- 8. A green pigment responsible for the absorption of light for photosynthesis
- 10. The development of a plant from a seed after a period of dormancy
- 12. Multicellular organisms which make their own food through photosynthesis
- 14. A deficiency in this ion in plants leads to yellow leaves
Down
- 1. Tubes in the plant that transport water throughout to cells undergoing photosynthesis
- 2. A type of cell that help absorb mineral ions through active transport
- 3. The process through which carbon dioxide, water, and light are converted into glucose
- 4. A family of hormones that are related to plant growth
- 7. An organelle which caries out photosynthesis
- 9. Tubes in the plant that transport food from the leaf to the rest of the plant
- 11. The minute holes present on the bottom of a leaf, allowing gases to diffuse in and out of the leaf
- 13. An organelle present in plant cells, providing rigidity and structure
- 15. An ion used by plants to make amino acids
