Plant Biology

1. openings in the leaves that permit movement of water vapor, CO2 and oxygen in and out of the leaves
3. Type of plant that completes its life cycle in one year
7. The first leaf or leaves that emerges from a seed
9. place on the plant where cell division occurs (Bonus: How many types of meristems are there and where on the plant are they located?)
10. A plant’s ability to withstand frost
11. vascular tissue that conducts sugars to the plant
12. evaporative loss of moisture through the leaves (Bonus: how does transpiration relate to water uptake from the soil?)

2. Type of plant with both male and female flowers on the same plant
4. modified root used to store starches
5. the chemical process by which plants produce sugars (Bonus: what are the sugars used for?)
6. vascular tissue that conducts water and mineral nutrients from the soil to the above ground plant parts
8. Type of flower with both male and female parts
