Across
  1. 2. the hormones that facilitate for cell elongation in phototropism and gravitropism
  2. 4. serves as a storage and also transports nutrients throughout the plant lies between the vascular tissue and the center of the root
  3. 5. plastids that produce and store starch
  4. 9. leaves that do not have a petiole or stalk and are directly attached to the plant stem or peduncle.
  5. 11. plant hormones that are responsible in regulating different processes necessary for plant development such as stem elongation, germination, fruit and flower maturation.
  6. 13. are a class of photoreceptor used to detect red light and far red light that function in regulating seed germination, chlorophyll synthesis and other aspects of plant development.
  7. 16. organelles that conduct photosynthesis - allow plants to capture energy from the sun.
  8. 17. plant proteins that are designed to perceive light and signal different biological reactions in plants.
  9. 18. water vapor movement from the plant to the atmosphere through the stomata
  10. 19. potential that is a measure of the potential energy in water as well as the difference between the potential in a given water sample and pure water.
Down
  1. 1. type of roots that enable a plant to grow on another plant; derives its moisture and nutrients from the air, rain, water, or from debris accumulating around it.
  2. 3. inner layer of cells in the leaf that provide large spaces for carbon dioxide to move freely; where photosynthesis occurs.
  3. 6. type of tissue found in plants that consists of undifferentiated cells capable of cell division.
  4. 7. a plant's response to blue wavelengths of light that causes a plant to either grow toward or away from a light source.
  5. 8. hairlike structures on the epidermal surface that help to reduce transpiration and defend the leaves against herbivore predators.
  6. 10. strong and thick cells that provides support to the plant and eventually dies at maturity.
  7. 12. vascular tissue in charge of transport and distribution of the soluble organic nutrients such as sugars
  8. 13. arrangement of leaves around the stem
  9. 14. specialized tissue of vascular plants that is responsible for transporting water and dissolved nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant as well as provide mechanical support and storage.
  10. 15. a tissue found in many vascular plants that lies between the epidermis and phloem, responsible for secondary growth and replaces the epidermis in roots and stems.
