Across
- 3. Part of the plant that is for anchoring the plant to the soil, absorbing water and minerals and transporting them upwards, and storing the products of photosynthesis.
- 6. Tissue that serves as a site for photosynthesis and provides supporting matrix for vascular tissue
- 7. Modified stem that grows horizontally underground and has nodes and internodes
- 8. Meristematic tissues only found in monocots
- 9. Contain meristematic tissue located at the tips of stems and roots
- 12. Small hairs on the leaf surface that deter predators
- 13. Facilitate growth in thickness or girth in a maturing plant
- 14. Main hormones responsible for cell elongation in phototropism and gravitropism.
- 17. Arrangement of leaves on a stem
- 18. Tissue that covers and protects the plant
- 20. Provide support and are dead cells at maturity
Down
- 1. Tissue that transports water, minerals, and sugars to different parts of the plant
- 2. Responsible for metabolic functions, such as photosynthesis, and they help repair and heal wounds
- 4. Plant cells that are no longer actively dividing
- 5. Slender, twining strands that allow plants to seek support to climb on surfaces
- 10. Transports organic compounds from the site of photosynthesis to other parts of the plant
- 11. Elongated cells with unevenly thickened walls, provide support
- 15. Transports water and nutrients from the roots to different parts of the plant,
- 16. Part of the plant that connects the roots to the leaves
- 19. Plant cells that continue to divide and contribute to the growth of the plant
