Across
  1. 4. Plants - it’s outer is covered by the dermal tissue.
  2. 6. - the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy.
  3. 9. meristem - the tip of the shoot or root.
  4. 10. tissue - functions in the prevention of water loss and acts as a barrier to fungi and other invaders.
  5. 12. - responsible for transporting sugars, proteins, and other organic molecules in plants.
  6. 13. cells - bean-shaped cells covering the stomata opening.
  7. 14. Tissue - comprises the bulk of the primary plant body.
  8. 17. cells - often occur as bundle cap fibers.
  9. 18. - may be defined as a region of localized mitosis.
  10. 19. - transports, and stores water and water-soluble nutrients in vascular plants.
Down
  1. 1. cells - cells that retain their nucleus and control the adjacent sieve cells.
  2. 2. elements - shorter, much wider, and lack endplates.
  3. 3. Tissue - transports food, water, hormones, and minerals within the plant.
  4. 5. cells - these cells are characterized by thickenings of the wall, they are alive at maturity.
  5. 7. System - above the ground and include the organs such as leaves, buds, stems, etc.
  6. 8. - a lateral meristem that usually produces secondary growth.
  7. 11. cells - generalized plant cell type that is alive at maturity.
  8. 15. System - including parts of the plant that can be found under the ground.
  9. 16. - long and tapered, with angled end-plates that connect cell to cell.
