Plant Biology

2. / plant organ that supports leaves, may store food
3. / meristematic tissue located in the leaf axils that produces flowers or lateral branches
5. / includes flowers, fruits, and seeds
8. / above-ground portions of the plant
10. / site where leaves are attached to stem
11. / underground stem modified for food storage
12. / leaf blade that attaches directly to stem; lack of a petiole
14. / unbranched, elongated inflorescence
15. / stem-like structure that attaches leaf blade to stem
17. / horizontal underground stem
18. / the flowering part of a plant; a flower cluster

1. / stem tissue in-between nodes
3. / flattened photosynthetic surface of a leaf
4. / meristematic tissue in roots that differentiates to form lateral roots and stems
6. / primary organ for water and nutrient uptake, may store food
7. / includes stem, leaves and roots
9. / a dense cluster of sessile flowers; inflorescence of the Asteraceae
12. / flap of tissue located at the base of a petiole, usually occurs in pairs
13. / portion of a grass leaf that wraps around the stem
16. / primary organ for conducting photosynthesis and exchanging gases
