Q

what is spongy mesophyll

A

tissue layer of lossly spaced cells in a leaf

17
Q

whats the function of spongy mesophyll

A

diffusion of oxygen out and carbon dioxide towards the palisade cells

18
Q

function of vascular tissue

A

provides leaf with water needed for transportation and photosynthesis, and removes sugars

19
Q

what is phloem

A

sieve tube cells and companion cells

20
Q

what is the funtion of phloem

A

transports sucrose, sugar is used for protein

21
Q

what is xylem?

A

thick walled tubes

22
Q

is xylem living?

23
Q

what is the function of xylem?

A

moves water and disolved minerals from the roots up to the stem then to the leaves

24
Q

what is a vascular bundle

A

a strand of xylem, phloem and associated tissues bunched together

25
what are meristems
plant tissue in which cells divide by mitosis
26
whats the function of meristems?
produce root tissue and shoot tissue
27
what do root hairs do?
absorbs water and minerals
28
what are root hairs
dermal cell on plant root
29
what do guard cells do?
swells and contracts to control gas exchange through the stona
30
what is the cuticle
waxy, water proof layer on the outside of the leaf
31
what is the word equation of photo synthesis
carbon dioxide+ water+ sunlight energy= glucose+ oxygen
32
what is the chemical equation for photosynthesis
6co2+ 6H2O+ energy = C6H12O6 +6O2
33
what is cellular respiration
when the mitochondria breaks down glucose into energy in the form of ATP
34
what is the word equation of cellular respiration
glucose + oxygen + carbon dioxide + water + energy
35
what is the chemical equation for cellular respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
36
what is the stoma
tiny pores that allow gas exchange under the leaf
37
how do the stoma open?
carbon dioxide and oxygen move by diffusion at any time
