1. Plant Review and Adaptations

2. Do you see what I see? Write down as many parts of the plant cell can you label?

3. Chloroplast

4. Vacuole

5. Cell Membrane

6. Cell Wall

7. Nucleus

8. Fibrous roots – prevent erosion Taproots – reach water deep in the ground

9. Releasing O 2 + H 2 O Transpiration

10. Leaves: Monocot vs. Dicot Monocot – parallel veins Dicot – branched veins

11. Label the flower

12. Did we get it?

13. Leaf A B C D E F

14. A: vein B: petiole C: margin D: blade E: axillary bud F: stem

15. Life cycle of a plant

16. Cross section of leaf

17. cuticle Upper edidermis Pallisade mesophyll Spongy mesophyll Guard Cell Stoma Vein (Xylem and Phloem) Lower Epidermis

18. Pollination Flowering plants use the wind, insects, bats, birds and mammals to transfer pollen from the male (stamen) part of the flower to the female (stigma) part of the flower.

19. Fertilization Pollen grains germinate on the stigma, growing down the style to reach an ovule. Fertilized ovules develop into seeds. The carpel enlarges to form the flesh of the fruit and to protect the ovary.

21. Fruit or Veggies? With a partner, classify the following: CucumbersPotato TomatoesStrawberry CarrotsRadish OrangeSquash PumpkinGreen peppers

22. “Plant behavior”

23. Hormones Auxin – causes cell growth towards the sun Cytokinins – cause plants to branch and seeds to sprout Gibberellins – cause plants to increase in size Ethylene – causes fruits to ripen

24. Tropisms Gravitropism – roots grow down, stems grow up Phototropism – growth towards light Thigmotropism – response to touch

25. Others… Photoperiodism – plants response to periods of light (day and night) Winter Dormancy – plants get ready for the winter (stop photosynthesis)

26. Plant Adaptations… In spite of being rooted in the ground, plants need to have strategies that allow them the necessary “skills” to survive.

28. TRUE or FALSE After each statement, move to the right side on the room for true or the left side for false. Ready…
