Plant Unit Review
    • Plant Reproduction
    • Plant Types
    • Plant Structure
    • Dormancy
    • Photosynthesis

2
Name the 2 reproductive parts of the plant.  Which one produces the pollen?  Which one produces the seed?
3
How a seed is born!
  • Pollen is transferred from the stamen to the pistil.
  • The pollen travels down the pistil tube to the ovary and is fertilized.
  • A seed begins to form in the ovary.
4
Which plant produces seeds:  plant A or B?  Which produces spores?
5
There are 4 parts to a plant:
  • Flowers
  • attract birds and insects.
  • Leaves
  • produce food for the plant.
  • Stems
  • provide support and carry the water and nutrients  through the plant.
  • Roots
  • anchor the plant and take                in nutrients and water.


6
Dormancy
  • Dormancy is when a plant is in a state of suspension.  This means the plant is still alive, but it looks dead.
  • Dormancy is to plants as hibernation is to animals.


7
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their own food.
8
Process of photosynthesis
9
How do plants help us?
  • People breathe out carbon dioxide.
  • Plants breathe out oxygen.
  • Plants need carbon dioxide to make food.
  • People need oxygen to live.

Plant Review Continued
  • Give 2 examples of plants that produce spores.
  • What is photosynthesis?
  • What is dormancy?
  • What gas do plants give us?
  • What gas do plants take in?
