Plant Structures

2. Pollen is produced here
4. Vascular tissue that transports water; also known as sapwood in trees
5. Tissue that produces new xylem and phloem
6. The young plant that develops from the zygote
7. Structures in which food is made
10. carries substances between the plant's roots and leaves, provides support for the plant
11. Waxy layers that help plant reduces water loss
12. Occurs when the embryo begins to grow again and pushing out of the seed
14. Consists of many similarly sized roots, forming a dense tangled mass, Onions are examples
15. Fertilized egg
16. The transfer of pollen from male reproductive structures to female reproductive structures
17. Vascular tissue that transports food
20. Type of stem that is often soft, example ivy
23. Protects the seeds as they develop
24. Protects the root as it grows through the soil
25. Leaflike parts of a flower, protect the developing flower
27. Hard to pull out of the ground, Cacti are examples

1. Male reproductive part of a flower
2. Represent a year of growth in a tree, made from xylem
3. Slender tube, connects the stigma to a hollow structure at the base of the flower
5. Outer bark that protects the cells inside
8. Female reproductive part of a flower
9. Scattering of seeds by either animals or the wind
13. Type of stem that is hard and rigid, like in most trees.
14. Reproductive structure of an angiosperm
18. Acts like plastic wrap, protecting the embryo and its food from drying out
19. Usually the most colorful parts of the flower, pollinators are attracted to their color and sent
20. Old, inactive xylem that helps support the tree
21. Anchor a plant in the ground, absorb water and minerals from the soil, and sometimes store food
22. Pores that control when gases enter of leave the leaf
26. Capture the sun’s energy and carry out the food-making process of photosynthesis
