answers
mitosis- genetically identical; daughter cells.
meiosis- genetically different; gamates - answer Describe the process of
mitosis & Meiosis and include the stages of Mitosis
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Interphase - answer Stages
of mitosis & meiosis
photosynthesis- makes food, sun, h20, co2, creates sugars & starches
transpiration- loss of water from plant
cell respiration- releasing energy - answer Describe the function of
photosynthesis, transpiration, & cellular respiration.
1-4 cultivate (1 is best, can farm on)
5-8 grazing (only for animals) - answer List & define 8 types of land
classification
soil texture- % of sand, silt, clay
,soil structure - arrangement of particles - answer what is soil texture vs
soil structure & list the soil particles in order of particle size- large to
small
macro: Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Oxygen, Carbon, Hydrogen,
Calcium, Sulfur, Magnesium.
Micro: Maganese, Molybdenum, Chlorine, Copper, Boron, Zink, Nickel,
Iron - answer Separate the 17 essential plant nutrients into macro &
micro, make sure t indicate which three are the most important
Nitrogen; helps to make the plant green (chlorophyll) - answer what is
the most important nutrient's main purpose for the plant?
Air layering is a method of propagating new trees and shrubs from
stems still attached to the parent plant. The stem is wrapped with damp
moss to encourage roots to form.
Plant tissue culture is a collection of techniques used to maintain or
grow plant cells, tissues or organs under sterile conditions on a nutrient
culture medium of known composition. It is widely used to produce
clones of a plant in a method known as micropropagation.
Stem cuttings: It involves taking a section of stem from a parent plant
and manipulating it to create a new plant.
leaf cuttings: stem cutting produces new roots, and a root cutting
produces new stems
, root cuttings: the portion of root is cut from a parent plant (often called
a mother plant), placed in a growing medium, and then left to grow its
own system of roots and stems.
seeds: is the method of plant propagation (multiplying, reproducing, or
breeding new plants) that is done throu - answer Describe the following
propagation methods of air layering, tissue culture, stem cuttings, leaf
cuttings, root cuttings, & seeds.
germination- seed sprouts
propagation- growing plants - answer What is germination vs
propagation
asexual: cuttings, layering, division, buddings, & grafting
sexual:involves the union of the pollen (male) with the egg (female) to
produce a seed - answer Describe asexual plant propagation & sexual
plant propagation.
Gymnosperm- cones, naked seeds
Angiosperm- Flower parts (monocotyledons- first leaf, parallel veins,
non-woody flowers * 3) (dicotyledons- netted veins, woody, flowers *4
or 5). - answer Breakdown the spermatophyta category of plants &
describe each sub level.
monocot- vascular bundles
