Across
- 2. A ring that defines the endodermis and allows for selective intake of nutrients into the vasculature of plants
- 4. The stem of seedlings
- 5. The incorporation of a compound into a sugar or protein, often for storage.
- 6. A small pore in the ovule that serves as the entry point for pollen to fertilize the egg.
- 7. A small string of amino acids added by a E3 Ubiquitin Ligase that mark a protein for degradation via a 26S Proteosome
- 10. The process where a seed must go through a series of process-drying out the seed-before it breaks dormancy
- 13. The region of a leaf petiole or fruit pedicel that forms to allow clean breakage
- 15. The pollen producing structure on stamen
- 18. The plant hormone that is comprised of 4 rings. It plays a role in internode length, seed germination, and fruit formation.
- 20. The precursor to auxin
- 21. The occurrence when seeds germinate while still in the fruit
- 24. The photoreceptor that is sensitive(photo-irreversibly) to blue light and regulates seedling de-etiolation, circadian rhythm, and flowering
- 27. The collection of female reproductive organs in a flower
- 29. The tendency of a shoot to remain unbranched
- 30. The ability of somatic cells to differentiate and mature into a complete organism in plants
- 31. The side of the leaf that is farthest from the SAM (Shoot Apical Meristem)
- 32. The phenomenon where multiple gene code for proteins with similar/identical functions
- 33. The collection of male reproductive organs in a flower
- 34. The process that breaks seed dormancy via chilling
Down
- 1. A cell found in plant ovules that release chemicals to guide the pollen toward the egg for fertilization
- 3. The photoreceptor that is sensitive (photo-reversibly) to red and far-red light, it regulates shade avoidance response, seed germination, and seedling de-etiolation
- 5. The plant hormone with an adenine base. It plays a role in (inhibiting) apical dominance, shoot growth, and regulate root growth in response to available nutrients.
- 8. The precursor to GA, ABA, and one of the precursors to Cytokinin
- 9. The tissue that connects the developing embryo to the endosperm
- 11. The plant hormone that is comprised of a non-aromatic ring and a carboxyl group. It plays a role in (inhibiting) seed germination, seed maturation, dehydration response in roots, and leaf senescence
- 12. A class of light sensitive biomolecules that are composed of proteins and chromophores.
- 14. The photoreceptor that is sensitive(photo-irreversibly) to blue light and regulates seedling de-etiolation, stomata opening, chloroplast movement, and phototropism.
- 16. A procedure that determines a chemical's effect over a variety of concentrations
- 17. The leaves of seedlings
- 19. The process that breaks seed dormancy via damaging the seed coat
- 22. The organization of leaf arrangement on a plant
- 23. The gaseous plant hormone that plays a role in fruit ripening, triple response in seedlings, and senescence.
- 25. A protective layer on the tips of roots
- 26. The plant hormone that is comprised of an aromatic ring and a carboxyl group.It travels through the plant via polar transport caused by the distribution of efflux and influx transporters on the basal and apical sides of the cell. It plays a role in many plant processes including: phototropism, (promoting) apical dominance, gravitropism, and root growth.
- 28. A plastid full of starch and aids in gravitropism in roots
- 29. The side of the leaf that is closest to the SAM (Shoot Apical Meristem)
