Plants and Photosynthesis Plant cell Only in Plants Chloroplast Cell Wall Vacuole (?) Chloroplast Why are leaves generally flat and broad? Why are plants mostly green? Main pigment is Chlorophyll A and B Absorbs Blue and Red = Reflects Green Photosynthesis Photosynthesis Process by which organisms use light energy to convert H2O and CO2 into O2 and C6H12O6 (Carbohydrates). How do you get water and nutrients up there? Vascular System - Xylem Xylem: Hollow sieve tube that transports water Vascular Tissue - Phloem Phloem: Sieve tubes and companion cells that carry materials like carbohydrates What are the four groups of plants? Cone-Bearing (Gymnosperm) Flowering Plants (Angiosperms) Mosses (Bryophytes) Ferns (pterophytes) SMART Angiosperms – “Enclosed Seeds” Have ovaries that surround/protect seeds Fruits Parts of a flower (sketch) SMART Come back!!!!!!
