Across
  1. 2. Vascular tissue that transports water; also known as sapwood in trees
  2. 3. Pollen is produced here
  3. 6. Male reproductive part of a flower
  4. 7. Outer bark that protects the cells inside
  5. 10. Old, inactive xylem that helps support the tree
  6. 12. Occurs when the embryo begins to grow again and pushing out of the seed
  7. 15. carries substances between the plant's roots and leaves, provides support for the plant
  8. 17. Protects the seeds as they develop
  9. 18. The young plant that develops from the zygote
  10. 19. Structures in which food is made
  11. 21. Fertilized egg
  12. 22. Protects the root as it grows through the soil
  13. 24. Pores that control when gases enter of leave the leaf
  14. 25. Waxy layers that help plant reduces water loss
  15. 29. Acts like plastic wrap, protecting the embryo and its food from drying out
  16. 30. Anchor a plant in the ground, absorb water and minerals from the soil, and sometimes store food
  17. 31. Reproductive structure of an angiosperm
Down
  1. 1. Vascular tissue that transports food
  2. 4. Hard to pull out of the ground, Cacti are examples
  3. 5. Represent a year of growth in a tree, made from xylem
  4. 8. Female reproductive part of a flower
  5. 9. The transfer of pollen from male reproductive structures to female reproductive structures
  6. 11. Scattering of seeds by either animals or the wind
  7. 13. Slender tube, connects the stigma to a hollow structure at the base of the flower
  8. 14. Type of stem that is hard and rigid, like in most trees.
  9. 16. Consists of many similarly sized roots, forming a dense tangled mass, Onions are examples
  10. 20. Type of stem that is often soft, example ivy
  11. 23. Usually the most colorful parts of the flower, pollinators are attracted to their color and sent
  12. 26. Tissue that produces new xylem and phloem
  13. 27. Leaflike parts of a flower, protect the developing flower
  14. 28. Capture the sun’s energy and carry out the food-making process of photosynthesis
