Vocabulary • Autotroph: An organism that can make its own food • Fertilization: Joining of a sperm and an egg cell • Phloem: Vascular tubes that carry food throughout the plant • Photosynthesis: the process plants use to produce glucose (food) for themselves and oxygen for the air
Vocabulary • Pollination: the transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma in a flower • Transpiration: the releasing of excess water in the form of a gas from the plants leaves • Xylem: vascular tubes that transport water and minerals throughout the plant
Characteristics • Multicellular • Autotrophs or ______________________ • Cells have ____ _____ and _____________ • Colors can be vibrant to attract insects and birds for pollination Producers Cell Wall Chloroplasts
Structure (Fill in Chart) A: Leaf • Site for photosynthesis • Called food factories B: Stem • Support: for the leaves; used in transport • Stores food • Ex: celery
Structure (Fill in Chart) C: Roots • Anchor: holds plant in soil • Absorbs: water and minerals • Some plants store food • Ex: potatoes, carrots, turnips
