Across
- 1. As a woody plant increases in girth, epidermis is sloughed off, exposing periderm, which forms the outer bark
- 7. usually organized into an underground root and aerial shoot system
- 8. consists of roots, stems, and leaves
- 12. Conducts water and dissolved minerals from roots to stems and leaves, and provides structural support
- 15. Plant cells are organized into

- 3. contain microsporocytes, each of which undergoes meiosis to form four haploid microspores
- 4. Simple tissue specialized for structural support
- 5. A single layer of flattened, relatively unspecialized living cells
