Across
  1. 5. the outside of a leaf that contains a large surface area to absorb sunlight
  2. 7. green pigment that absorbs sunlight
  3. 9. transports glucose / organic nutrients from leaf
  4. 13. transports water and glucose around the plant
  5. 15. the attractions between the same substances e.g. water molecules x2
  6. 16. controls the opening and closing of the stomata
  7. 19. the bottom of a plant which attracts nutrients from the soil
  8. 20. 6CO2 + 6H20 -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
  9. 22. light energy
  10. 24. the attraction between different substances e.g. water molecules and walls
  11. 25. sugar C6H12O6
  12. 26. CO2, generated by plants through photosynthesis. a waste product of respiration
  13. 27. the movement of molecules from a high to low concentration
  14. 28. composed of xylem and phloem tissues; to transport critical substances to the leaf
  15. 29. O, byproduct of photosynthesis; breaks down sugar for energy
Down
  1. 1. packed with chloroplasts for photosynthesis
  2. 2. air spaces for efficient gas exchange; some photosynthesis may occur here
  3. 3. top layer of the leaf, transparent to allow sunlight
  4. 4. that stalk that attaches the leaf to the plant's stem
  5. 6. second layer of the leaf, transparent to allow sunlight
  6. 8. where photosynthesis occurs in
  7. 10. transports water from the roots
  8. 11. the process water turning to gas
  9. 12. the inside structure of a leaf
  10. 14. the force which helps in drawing the water upward from roots to leave
  11. 17. H2O
  12. 18. given to plants through photosynthesis
  13. 21. a hole that allows oxygen and carbon dioxide to exchange
  14. 23. provides strength throughout the leaf, keeps it sturdy
  15. 25. exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen
