what is the chromatin

small strands of genetic material

What is a Golgi body

packages and sends ribosomes away

what are ribosomes

makes proteins

chlorophyll

makes plants green

vacuole

stores waste, water, food

lysosomes

the "clean up crew" breaks down old to make room for new.

what do nearly all organism get their energy from why

the sun, because...

where does photosynthesis occur

in the leaves of a plant

what is the 'recipe' of photosynthesis (word and chemical equation)

sun energy, 6CO2 + 6H20 --> C6H12O6 + 602

why are leaves so important to a plant what do they inhale what do they exhale

because it has its waxy cuticle to absorb and conserve water. it also has has its stomata which is its nose to breath. they inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen

why do plant leaves bubble when completely submerged by water provided their stem is clamped

it is exhaling oxygen, when doing so under water it turns in to bubble form, the stem has to be clamped so it wont come out the stem instead of the leaves

what is the role of the cuticle

to absorb and conserve water for the plant

what are the stomata most likely located on the under side of the leaf what's on the top and why

because if it were on the top it would be hard for it to breath, like if a human put a blanket over their mouth and tried to breath. the waxy cuticle is on the top, all the water wouldn't be able to even tough the cuticle if it were on the bottom, and the plant would die without carbon dioxide

would the stomata be most likely be located on the top or bottom of a lily pad why

they need carbon dioxide which is in the air on the top rather than the bottom, so it would be on the top.

describe 4 characteristics of the plant kingdom

plants obtain water from soil so they can eat, they have transport tubes through their stems to transfer chemicals, they retain water with a waxy cuticle layer, they support their bodies with cell walls, they reproduce with pollen and seeds or spores.

what does vascular transport mean

well developed transport tubes for plants to obtain water and food.

give an example of a plant that has strong vascular transport

celery

What tubes in the plant's stem transport water

low growing, dont have great roots for absorption, like damp shady places, lack well developed transport tubes.

how would you describe a plant that doesn't have strong transport tubes

low growing, doesn't have great roots for absorption, like damp, shady places, lack well developed transport tubes

What is the the role of the phloem

Phloem takes the plant food from the leaves and takes it to other parts of the plant.

why would a plant have more water loss after lunch then after dinner

because the sun is still up so it is more of a chance for water on the cuticle to evaporate than after dinner when there is no sunlight left
