Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta Respuesta
chloroplast the organelle where photosynthesis occurs
chlorophyll the green pigment that captures light energy
limiting factors the factor in shortest supply when photosynthesis takes place
transpiration loss of water from evaporation via the stomata of the leaves
translocation the way sucrose is transported through the phloem
xylem carries water and dissolves minerals from the roots
phloem carries sucrose to the growing regions of the plants
auxin a plant hormone produced in the roots and shoots that controls growth
phototropism the response of a plant to light
gravitropism/geotropism the response of a plant to gravity
hydrotropism the response of a plant to water
biomass the amount of living material an organism is made up of
endothermic a reaction where heat energy is taken in
starch the form that glucose is stored as in a plant
iodine the chemical reagent that turns blue/black if starch is present
stomata controls what goes in and out of a leaf
vascular bundle tissue containing the xylem and the phloem together
cambium cells that separate the xylem and the phloem
companion cell cells joining phloem vessels that pump sucrose in and out of the sieve cells
lignin found in xylem, prevents cell collapse
waxy cuticle top layer, helps water runoff, reduces water loss, makes sure light can pass through
upper epidermis second layer, lets light through
palisade layer/mesophyll contains chloroplast and chlorophyll, where photosynthesis takes place
spongy layer/mesophyll contains air spaces, increases surface area for gas exchange
lower epidermis bottom layer, keeps leaf together
agriculture the science or practise of farming, including cultivation of soil for the growing of crops and rearing of animals
horticulture growing of fruits, vegetables and flowers
gibberellins plant hormone that makes the stem get longer
abscisic acid plant hormone that inhibits bud from growing
