Plant structure and function

2. plant adapted to moderate conditions
5. one of two plant transport tissues, non-living, mainly transports water from roots to shoots
7. plant organ which anchors and plant and collects water (and minerals)
9. plant adapted to aquatic conditions
12. structural carbohydrate in plant cell walls
13. photosynthetic organ of plants
14. unspecialised plant cells in stem from which new tissues grow
16. flowering plant phylum
18. structural protein in plant cell walls
19. first leaf to appear from a germinating seed
21. one of two plant transport tissues, living, translocates water and sugars/carbohydrates from photosynthetic tissues to all other tissues
23. plant class with branched leaf veins, ringed vascular bundles and floral parts in multiples of 4 or 5
25. connection between sieve elements in phloem to allow conduction of material
27. collection of transport tubules in plants, including xylem and phloem
28. thin layer on top of epidermis to prevent water loss

1. flow of water passively through xylem from root to leaves, uses capillary action
3. photosynthetic tissue in a leaf, two types: palisade and spongy
4. pore in a leaf which allows gas exchange and water loss due to transpiration
6. movement of materials from leaves to other parts of plant
8. outer layer of cells covering plant
10. release of water through plant leaves
11. plant supportive structure, transports water from roots to leaves, new growth comes from this
15. contains conducting tissue in a leaf (xylem and phloem) and provides structure to the leaf
17. reproductive organ of angiospermophyta
20. plant adapted to dry conditions
22. plant class with parallel leaf veins, random vascular bundles and floral parts in multiples of 3
24. gaps in spongy mesophyll to assist gas exchange
25. rich organic and inorganic substrate for terrestrial plant roots
26. the two cells which open and close the stoma (pore) of a stomate
