What are the tube-like structures that make up the vascular tissue?
Answer: xylem and phloem
Structures/Functions 200
What are the two main functions of stomata?
Answer: let extra water out, and allow gasses (carbon dioxide and oxygen) to be exchanged
Structures/Functions 400
What are the main functions of the roots?
Answer: absorb water from the soil, hold the plant in place, and store extra food
Structures/Functions 500
Why do we make graphs to show data?
Answer: as a way of studying information collected that is easier to understand, to identify trends or patterns
Graphing 100
What type of data would be best shown using a line graph?
Answer: any data that shows how something changes over time (minutes, days, months, etc.)
Graphing 200
When would you use a pie chart or circle graph?
Answer: anytime your data shows parts of a whole
Graphing 400
What is the difference between a stem-and-leaf plot and a histogram?
Answer: Stem-and-leaf plot shows frequencies of individual data and a histogram show frequencies of groups of data that are continuous.

Why is the soil the best place to water a plant?
Answer: Because the roots, which are underground absorb the water from the soil.
Absorption 100
What happens to the water after the roots absorb it?
Answer: water is passed from the roots to the xylem
Absorption 300
What are all the structures that are responsible for absorption?
Answer: roots and xylem
Absorption 500
What is the process of transpiration?
Answer: the process in which the plant releases extra water
Transpiration 100
Why don’t we see plants transpiring?
Answer: the stomata are tiny, and the amount of water released is so small that it evaporates quickly
Transpiration 300
Why would small leaves benefit desert plants?
Answer: there isn’t a lot of water, so small leaves would help a desert plant hold on to water…less leaf area to lose water
Transpiration 500
What are the ingredients that the plant needs to make food?
Answer: water, carbon dioxide, energy from the sun, chloroplasts
Photosynthesis 300
What does the plant get rid of during the photosynthesis process?
Answer: oxygen and water
Photosynthesis 400
Why would big leaves be helpful to plants in the rainforest?
Answer: so many plants competing for sunlight, so big leaves allow them to trap as much sunlight as possible
Photosynthesis 500
What is the difference between a positive and negative tropism?
Tropisms 200
Answer: positive grows towards a stimulus, and negative grows away from the stimulus
How do the roots and shoots respond to light?
Tropisms 300
Answer: the roots respond negatively by growing away from the light, and the shoots grow positively by growing toward the light
How do roots and shoots respond in geotropism?
Tropisms 400
Answer: roots respond positively by growing toward gravity, and shoots grow negatively by growing against gravity
