P LANT ADAPTAT I ONS

1. PLANT ADAPTATIONS

2. Heterotrophs and Autotrophs Plants have adapted to make their own food. • Autotroph: organisms produce their own organic compounds by photosynthesis

3. It only eats one meal of Algae and then it never has to eat another meal for the rest of its life! (Kinda reminds me of some alien species that alledgedly use photosynthesis to survive, and they are obviously plant animal hybrids too) Makes sense to me. Animal, plant or both? What type of relationship is this? • This beautiful leaf-shaped sea slug Elysiachlorotica lives in shallow pools along Atlantic coast of North America, eats algae with gusto - one meal is enough for its lifetime! - and by using photosynthesis like any other plant, shatters the most basic definition between the "animal" and "plant" kingdoms.

4. What is the main plant organ that carries out photosynthesis?? Answer: The Leaf

6. How do gases enter and exit the cell? Stomata Activity- Stomata Prac

7. Stomata USUALLY on the undersurface of a leaf

8. Upper Epidermis Palisade mesophyll Lower Epidermis Spongy mesophyll Stoma with two guard cells

11. Environmental adaptation in Angiosperms Plants that produce flowers are classified as Angiosperms. These plants are all vascular plants. Have various types of flowers Live in a variety of diverse environmental conditions. They can be further described as being Hydrophytes, Mesophytes, Xerophytes or Halophytes.

12. Hydrophyte

13. Mesophyte

14. Xerophyte Pits with sunken stomata

15. Halophyte
