Plant Growth and Changes Quiz 1
Study Guide
Parts of an Experiment
Testable question - the question you want to answer with your experiment
Hypothesis - an educated guess of what will happen based on what you already know
Materials - the items you need for the experiment
Procedure - the steps you follow to perform the experiment
Variables - the one you change (manipulated), the ones you keep the same (controlled) and the
one that you measure at the end of the experiment (responding)
Observations - what you experience with your five senses
Conclusion - what your observation has taught you; did you answer the question?
Key Terms
Anther - the male part of the flower that consists of a long stalk and a bulb on the tip end
Bulb - an enlarged underground section of a stem that will grow into a new plant when planted
Erosion - the wearing away by the action of water, wind, or glacial ice
Flower - the part of the plan that produces the seeds
Fruit - the flesh, often sweet part of a plant that holds the seeds
Leaves - the green structures on the branches of plants which make the plant’s food.
Nutrient - a substance that provides nourishment
Pistil - the female part of the flower containing the egg or eggs in its swollen
Pollination - the transfer of pollen from the male part of a flower to the female part
Roots - the network of tubules and fibres that grow from the base of the plant
Seed - a structure containing a tiny embryo plant and stored food
Stem - the main body of the plant above ground that supports the branches and leaves
Key Concepts
What different items or products do we get from plant sources? How do plant roots prevent soil
erosion? What is the oxygen cycle? Why is it important?
What are the different parts of a plant? What is the function/purpose of each part? What are
the two types of root systems? What are the different parts of a flower? What are the different
types of stems? What are the different types of leaves? What are the different types of leaf
arrangements?
