Across
- 3. Microscopic holes in leaves that allow CO2 to enter the leaf and O2 to exit.
- 9. A baby plant with its own food supply.
- 11. What pollen is attached to.
- 12. Tubes that transport water from the roots to the leaves to be used in photosynthesis.
- 14. This means "outer skin" in Latin.
- 15. When pollen from one flower meets an egg (ovule) in another flower.
- 16. The process when water activates (wakes up) a seed and it grows a root.
- 18. The sweet syrup that flowers make to attract pollinators.
- 21. The plant cell organelle that photosynthesis occurs in.
- 25. These are the brightly colored part of a flower that attracts pollinators.
- 26. The green pigment in chloroplasts that captures the light energy.
- 27. The ability to do work. All living things need/use it.
- 28. These provide nutrients and water to the seed until they are ready to germinate. Also they taste good!
Down
- 1. Where the egg cells (called ovules) in a plant are located.
- 2. A sugar/food (C6H12O6) produced by plants during photosynthesis that provides energy to the plant.
- 3. A plant with many leaves, but no flowers or fruits.
- 4. Plants breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out this gas.
- 5. These cells open and close the stomata.
- 6. When an egg cell and sperm cell combine.
- 7. The reproductive organ of a plant.
- 8. Tubes that transport food (glucose/sugar) from the leaves to the rest of the plant to be used for energy.
- 10. A stem with 2 leaves.
- 13. This means "middle leaf" in Latin.
- 17. A process that converts light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose.
- 19. The waxy outer coating of a leaf. Careful! Sometimes it is toxic!
- 20. Plant sperm.
- 22. The part of the plant where photosynthesis occurs.
- 23. It holds the leaves/plant up.
- 24. This is what the roots carry to the leaves to be used in photosynthesis.
