| Grows at depths of 170 m, deeper than any other algae | red algae |
| Made from red algae, used in petri dishes | agar |
| peat | formed from the deposits of dead plants |
| nonvascular plants | Include,algae,mosses,hornworts and liverworts |
| Ferns | Vascular plants that do not produce seeds |
| fiddleheads | A young fern frond(leaf) |
| xylem | vascular tissue that carries water up from the roots |
| phloem | vascular tissue that carries food throughout a plant |
| vascular plants | Plants that have true roots, stems and leaves and produce seeds |
| used as food, spices, medicine, dyes | roots |
| Transport water,minerals and food from roots to leaves or vice-versa | stems |
| Herbaceous | plants with soft stems |
| Woody | Plants with tough, strong stems |
| Underground food storing stems | Tubers, bulbs and rhizomes |
| photosynthesis | the food-making process in plants |
| pollen | A tiny grain that contains sperm cells |
| pollination | Process where pollen is transferred to female reproductive structures |
| angiosperms | flowering plants |
| gymnosperms | cycads, gingkos, gnetophytes and conifers |
| stomata | opening on bottom of leaves that allows for gas exchange |
| male reproductive organs | stamen |
| female reproductive organs | pistil |
| tropism | Growth of a plant toward or away from a stimulus |
| annuals | plants that complete their life cycle in one season |
| perennials | plants that live for many years |
| A ripened ovary | a fruit |
| Stigma | female reproductive part that captures the pollen grains |
| The palisade mesophyll | Area in leaf where majority of photosynthesis takes place |
