  8. 20. ___ stands for ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate
  9. 23. actively dividing layer of cells between xylem and phloem
  10. 24. a plant cell placed in hypotonic solution would be___?
  11. 25. underground part of plants
  12. 26. process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar
