Q

6 steps in photosynthesis in order

A
  1. the plant draw up water through its roots
  2. the leaves take in CO2 from the air
  3. the leaves trap energy from sunlight
  4. The plant uses the energy of sunlight to turn water and co2 into sugars and oxygen
  5. the plant releases oxygen
  6. the plant uses the sugars for growth

25
a nucleic acid present in a cell’s chromosomes that contains genetic information.
DNA
26
are characteristics that enable an organism to better survive in a certain environment.
Adaptations
27
the process by which organisms adapt to their environment over time, is the genetic change in a population of organisms from generation to generations.
Evolution
28
first ones who suggested a plausible mechanism , natural selection to explain evolution.
Charles Darwin and Alfred Wallace
29
autotrophic or heterotrophic can manufacture their own food include all green plants which make their organic food by photosynthesis also few non green plants just like bacteria which manufacture their organic food
autotrophs or independent plants
30
food web from first to last
1. producers 2. primary consumers (herbivores) 3. secondary consumers (small carnivores) 4. tertiary carnivores (large carnivores)
31
4 types of plants based on water requirements
mesophytes xerophytes hydrophytes halophytes
32
3 kinds of plants based on their habitat environment location
aquatic terrestial aerial
33
3 kinds of plants based on their life duration
annual plants biennial plants perennial plants
34
plants that live for one year or only one growing season
annual plants
35
plants that live for 2 years the first one limited for its vegetative growth the second for its reproductive year
biennial plants
36
plants that live from year to year or more than two years
perennial plants
37

trees shrubs herbs vines
43
woody plants with a single main stem which is commonly about 20ft in length
trees
44
woody plant is a relatively short length
shrubs
45
plants with soft succulent stems
herbs
46
climibing or twining plant with stems which may be tender or tough
vines
47
these are plants that lack vascular plants that specialized means of transporting water and organic nutrients, do not have true roots, stem and leaves
nonvascular plants
48
3 kinds of nonvascular plants
a. division hepatophyta b. division bryophyta c. division anthocerophyta
49
these are liverworts
division hepatophyta
50
these are mosses
division bryophyta
51
these are hornworts
division anthocerophyta
