2 * We are learning about plants and how they work and what they do.

3 * Seeds come from plants that produce fruits after fertilizing http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Where_do_seeds_come_from

4 * Animals inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Green plants are the only plants that produce oxygen and make food, which is called photosynthesis. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_does_p hotosynthesis_mean_in_English

5 * Pollen is a fine to coarse powder containing the microgametophytes of seed plants, which produce the male gametes (sperm cells). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollen

6 * A plant is full of vascular cells that transport water and sap throughout, from root to leaf tip. As the amount of sunlight decreases in autumn, the veins that transport sap into and out of a leaf slowly close off. Then a layer of cells, called the separation or abscission layer, develops at the base of the leaf’s stem. When this layer is completely formed, the leaf falls off. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_do_plan ts_drop_their_leaves_in_Autumn

7 * plant part you choose appears contact-poisonous, you may immediately test a new plant on your other arm or behind your knee. If the plant causes a reaction before you have swallowed it, wait until the symptoms have disappeared before testing a new plant.

8 Names of Poisonous plants In N.Z. Cape Tulip: Toxicity: High Buttercup: Toxicity: Medium Calico Bush: Toxicity: Medium Apricot: Toxicity: Low Flax: Toxicity: High

9 * Before they can grow into new plants, seeds need to leave the seed pod. If all the seeds a plant produced landed just underneath the parent plant, they would be too crowded, and the established large plant might not leave them enough light or water for them all to develop properly. http://theseedsite.co.uk/dis persal.html

10 http://glassvisage.hubpages.com/hub/Difference-between-fruit-and-vegetable * Basically, fruits are developed from flowers, vegetables aren't.

11 Bananas, Tomatoes, Grapes, Blood berries, boysenberries, blackberries, raspberries, cloudberries Names of berries that are edible.

12 * sunlight, water, nutrients from soil, carbon dioxide. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_are_the_raw_materials_plan ts_need_to_make_food

13 Why do plants make food? Plants make food the same reason humans make food to survive without the essentials they wouldn’t be able to make food – The things that plants cannot live without are water, carbon dioxide from the air, sunlight, and nutrients in the ground! Plants use these things in a special process called “photosynthesis” which allows them to make their own food,

14 * Pollination is when pollen is transferred from the anther to the stigma of a plant http://www.audioenglish.net/dictionary/pollination.htm

15 * Photosynthesis is the process of converting light energy to chemical energy and storing it in the bonds of sugar. This process occurs in plants and some algae (Kingdom Protista). Plants need only light energy, CO2, and H2O to make sugar. The process of photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts, specifically using chlorophyll, the green pigment involved in photosynthesis. http://biology.clc.uc.edu/courses/bio104/photosyn.htm
