Class B. Genus C. Family D. species Which of the following best describes the form of energy plants need for photosynthesis? A. Mechanical B. Electrical C. Chemical D. Radiant The oak tree below has moss growing on its branches. Which of the following statements best describes how the oak tree differs from the moss? A. The oak tree has herbaceous stems B. The oak tree reproduces with spores C. The oak tree needs water and nutrients D. The oak tree produces food by photosynthesis The path of the sperm cells to the egg cells is A. Pollen lands on a newly formed seed and fertilization occurs. B. Pollen lands on the stigma and fertilization of the egg occurs. C. Pollen lands on an anther; grows a tube to the filament; and fertilization occurs. D. Pollen lands on the stigma; grows a tube down the style to an ovule; and fertilization occurs. Which of the following best describes the type of energy that is created during photosynthesis? A. Mechanical B. Chemical C. Electrical D. Radiant Which of the following is the best comparison of flowering plants and conifers? A. Conifers reproduce with spores and flowering plants reproduce with seeds. B. Conifers reproduce with fruit and flowering plants reproduce with spores. C. Conifer seeds grow in an ovary and flowering plant seeds grow in a flower. D. Conifers seeds grow in a cone and flowering plant seeds grow in an ovary. Which of the following best describes the function of the xylem? A. To transport water and minerals from the roots to the rest of the plant. B. To absorb water from the soil and anchor the plant in the ground. C. To support the plant and hold the leaves up to the light. D. To protect the embryo from injury and drying out. Match each of the following plant structures with the appropriate function. Structure Function Phloem 1. sticky area at the top of the pistil where pollen grains land Stigma 2. protect the seed from injury Style 3. increase this surface area for absorbing water from the soil Root hairs 4. transport food made in the leaves to growing parts of the plant fruit 5. stalk where the pollen tube grows after pollination has taken place Plants whose seeds are to be dispersed by animals are usually covered with food. These types of food are known as A. Fruit B. Meat C. Seed D. Petal Name the Structures for #1 (parts A and B) and # 2 (parts C-F). In the diagram below, the “stamen” is labeled on the flower between steps C and D. Why is this an important part of the flower during this stage of reproduction? A. The stamen is where pollen is produced. B. The stamen is where the eggs are stored. C. The stamen is where the seed germinates. D. The stamen is where fertilization takes place. The model below represent which plant process? Sugar + Oxygen • Carbon Dioxide • Water • Energy A. Fertilization C. Transpiration B. Respiration D. Photosynthesis Which of the following describes germination? A. Pollen enters the ovule B. Early stage of seed growth C. Seed grows into a mature plant D.Fertilized ovule develops into a seed Which of the following best describes a similarity between all plants and animals? A. They both reproduce asexually. B. They both use vascular tissue to transport nutrients. C. They both use the process of respiration to release energy. D. They both use the process of photosynthesis to produce energy. The lima bean below was placed in a window sill for one week. A small amount of water was added each day. The root of the seed began to sprout at the top of the seed. Which statement below best explain what happened to the root as it grew? Which answer is incorrect? Justify your response. A. Hydrotropism made the root grow up toward the air. B. C. Phototropism made the root grow toward the light. Thigmotropism made the root grow toward the paper towel. Seed Root sprout D. Gravitropism made the root grow in a downward direction. Root Which of the following group of terms are most closely associated with asexual reproduction? A B • Pistil • Stamen • Egg • pollen D C • Xylem • Phloem • Fibrous root • taproots • Tubers • Bulbs • Cuttings • Runners • Monocot • Dicot • Conifer • spores The image below shows a potato forming new sprouts. These sprouts are an example of A. Asexual reproduction with tubers. B. Asexual reproduction with runners. C. Sexual reproduction with stem cuttings. D. Sexual reproduction with flowering plants. The model below represent which plant process? A. Fertilization B. Respiration C. Transpiration D.Photosynthesis The vast majority of plants function best when there is ample water and temperatures are well above freezing throughout the year. Plants, unlike animals, do not have the luxury of body insulation or locomotion. Consequently, as the temperatures decrease in the winter many plants respond by losing leaves and slowing growth. The statement above best summarizes which plant response to the environment? A. Dormancy C. Fertilization B. Phototropism D. Hydrotropism The model below represent which plant process? A. Fertilization B. Respiration C. Transpiration D.Photosynthesis Which of the following is a product of photosynthesis? A. Carbon Dioxide B. Chlorophyll C. Nitrogen D.Oxygen The following is a list of plant processes. Which one do you believe is most important to the plants survival? Use reasoning to defend your answer. Transpiration Fertilization Photosynthesis Respiration James was conducting a science experiment to learn about plant processes and structures. The image below shows James’s investigation. Which plant process would this experiment most likely demonstrate? Justify your response. A. Respiration B. Fertilization C. Transpiration D.Photosynthesis The picture below shows pollen being transferred to the pistil. This model best illustrations which plant process? A. Seed Production C. Germination B. Fertilization D. Pollination The model below demonstrates which plant response? Explain what is happening in the model and why. A. Gravitropism B. Hydrotropism C. Phototropism D. Thigmotropism Your neighbor had to go out of town for three weeks. You agreed to water her plants every few days. She closed the curtains so people could not see into the house. The only window that was NOT covered was in the kitchen. After two weeks, you noticed that the only healthy plant was in the kitchen. What question could you ask yourself to find out why the other plants do not look healthy anymore? A. Does the amount of sunlight a plant receives affect how well the plant grows? B. Should I repot the plants into bigger pots to give them more room to grow? C. Should I water the plants with something other than water? D. Do I need to water the plants more often to make them grow better?
