Across
- 1. openings or pores in the epidermis of leaves
- 3. layer of tissue between the vascular tissue and the epidermis
- 7. tough and waterproof outer layer cork cells in woody plants
- 9. stems that run almost parallel to the ground and can give rise to new plants at the nodes
- 10. protective layer covering the epidermal cells of leaves and other parts and limiting water loss
- 11. ground tissue towards the interior of the vascular tissue in a stem or root
- 13. vascular tissue in the root is arranged in the inner portion of the root
- 15. dead cells that have heavily thickened walls containing lignin
- 18. support tissue with irregular thick walls
- 19. layer of tissue between the vascular tissue and the epidermis
Down
- 2. modified branches appearing as sharp outgrowths that protect the plant
- 4. outermost single layer of cells covering and protecting stem, root, leaf, and other parts of a plant
- 5. type of plant tissue actively involved in photosythesis, cellular respiration, and food storage
- 6. transport organic compounds from the site of photosynthesis to the other parts of plants
- 8. hair-like structures on the epidermal surface of a plant
- 9. linear appendage found at the base of the petiole of a leaf
- 12. transports water and nutrients from the roots to different parts of the plant
- 14. thin and usually flattened blade of a leaf
- 16. outermost cell layer of root giving rise to the branches in roots
- 17. modified stem that grows horizontally underground and has nodes and internodes
