| photosynthesis | a plant uses carbon dioxide gas and water ot make food and oxygen |
| cell wall | a boundary that surrounds the cell membrane and seperates the cell from the environment |
| cellulose | chemical that makes the walls rigid |
| chloroplasts | structures in which food is made |
| vacuole | large, sack like storage area |
| tissues | groups of similar cells that perform a specific function in an organism |
| chlorophyll | green pigment found in the chlorplasts of plants as well as algae and some bacteria |
| cuticle | waxy, waterproof layer that covers the leaves of most plants |
| vascular tissue | transporting tissue that is an internal system of tubelike structures through which water and food move inside the plant |
| zygote | fertilized egg |
| sporophyte | stage when the plant produces spores |
| gametophyte | stage when the plant develops two kinds of sex cells |
| gametes | sperm cells and egg cells |
| fertilization | occurs when a sperm cells unites with an egg cell |
| egg and sperm | sex cells or gametes |
| autotroph | organism that can make its own food |
| multicellular | made up of many cells |
| eukaryote | cells with an organized nucleus |
| prokaryote | cells without an organized nucleus like bacteria cells |
| cell wall and chloroplasts | organelles that plant cells have and animals do not have |
| 5 things plants need to live on land | ability to obtain & retain water, support to grow larger, vascular tissue to transport water & materials and support, and reproduce successfully without water |
