20 Leaves Function: – Capture light energy – Convert light energy to chemical energy – Make glucose, fructose, galactose

22 STOMATA – opens & closes for gas exchange. Underside of leaf

26 Flowers Function: – Reproduction – Male: sperm (pollen) production – Female: egg/ovum (seed) production Ovary becomes the fruit to protect egg (seed)

39 Bark adaptations Green bark in desert Thin peeling bark in rain forest

40 Lianas The suction exerted by the leafy crown to draw up all this water from the roots is powerful. If a small cut is made in a liana stem, a hissing sound can be heard as air is sucked into the severed vessels. Lianas do not twine around the trunks of their supporting trees. Their stems hang freely, their weight carried by many small attachments in the crown.

41 Leaf drip tips
