How do you get food around your body? How does your body exchange gas and carbon dioxide?
2
Plants
3
If you could guess... 1. Do you think plants are prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
4
If you could guess... 2. Do you think plants are unicellular or multicellular
5
If you could guess... 3. Do you think plants are Motile or nonmotile?
6
If you could guess... 4. Do you think plants are Autotrophs or heterotrophs? Producers or consumers?
7
Plants are... Eukaryotic Nonmotile Multicellular Autotrophs They have chloroplasts, walls, large vacuole.
8
What we need to know about plants! 1. Photosynthesis 2. Cross section of a leaf (including stomata, xylem and phloem) 3. Vascular vs nonvascular plants 4. Parts of a flower 5. Adaptations
9
Plants use photosynthesis 5. What is the formula for photosynthesis? ______+ ______ ______+ _____
10
How photosynthesis works.
11
Where does photosynthesis take place? In the leaf of a plant.
12
A cross section of a leaf
13
Vascular Tissue
14
Some plants have tubes to carry water and nutrients up and down. These plants are called vascular plants.
15
Vascular Tissue (bundle) Xylem – transports water Phloem - transports food
16
Non vascular plants don't have tubes. These plants use osmosis to move water up the plant.
17
What is the difference between vascular and nonvascular plants?
18
What's stomata? (and guard cells) *Used for gas exchange. *Usually located on the bottom of the leaf. *Can open and close as needed.
19
Perspiration is sweat on you. Transpiration is sweat on plants
20
Reproduction in a flowering plant
21
Adaptations Flower colors - are specific to what they want to attract. Blue and violet attracts bees while red gets a butterfly or hummingbirds attention. Flower smells – attract the attention of the specific pollinator.
22
Corpse Flower smells like rotten flesh...what will it attract?
23
Bee mimic flower
24
Leaf adaptations
25
Plants fight back! Poison Ivy – Skin irritant Natural repellants for insects – mint Toxins – hemlock Thorns - roses

27
Questions 1. Some plants have adaptations designed to keep herbivores from eating them. Which of the following is NOT an example of this type of adaptation? A. thorns B. chemical with unpleasant taste C. sugary berries D. chemical skin irritant
28
Questions 2. Pond lilies grow leaves on the surface of ponds. Bottom surface of leaves is in direct contact with water. What adaptation will a lily need to exchange gases? A. many stomata on the bottom of plant B. few stomata on the bottom of plant C. many stomata located on the top of the plant D. few stomata located on the top of the plant
29
Questions 3. How do the spines of a cactus help it adapt to its environment? A. Spines disperse excess water after heavy rain. B. Spines produce flowers after rain. C. Spines reduce water loss D. Spines support the plant during drenching rain
30
Questions 4. Which type of flower adaptation would you expect for a plant to attract flies that feed on dead and decaying matter? A. small purple flowers B. large white flowers C. a fruity smell D. a decaying meat smell
31
Questions 5. Why would a stomata be closed?
32
Questions 6. What is transpiration?
33
Questions 7. What is the formula for photosynthesis?
34
Questions 8. How are you similar to a plant?
