Across
- 2. is a water-impervious protective layer covering the epidermal cells of leaves and other parts and limiting water loss.
- 4. contains genetic material to make a new plant, and nourishment for the baby plant as it starts growing.
- 7. Is responsible for the absorption of light to provide energy for photosynthesis.
- 8. A non-flowering seed plant, such as a pine tree, redwood or fir tree.
- 10. A vascular plant in which the seeds are not enclosed by a ripened ovary (fruit).
- 11. indicating growth or turning movement of a biological organism in response to an environmental stimulus.
- 13. The vascular tissue that transports water.
- 14. A pore in the epidermis of a leaf or stem that allows gas exchange.
Down
- 1. structure within the cells of plants and green algae that is the site of photosynthesis, the process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy.
- 3. The tissues of a leaf that are located in between the layers of epidermis and carry on photosynthesis.
- 5. The outermost layer of cells. Humans have this layer too, but ours aren’t green.
- 6. is the process where plants absorb water through the roots and then give off water vapor through pores in their leaves.
- 9. is the process by which a plant grows from a seed.
- 12. The vascular tissue that carries sugars and other nutrients throughout the plant.
