1. Asexual Reproduction in Plants Headings Vocabulary Important Info

2. Offspring will have same genes as parents
Vegetative Propagation:
Producing new individuals from roots, stems, or leaves of existing plants
Examples:
Runners- modified stems that grow along the top of the ground & send out their own roots
Strawberries

3. 2. Rhizomes-
modified stems that grow under the soil, produce new roots from stem.
Ex- Grasses
3. Tubers-
shorter, thicker stems that produce an “eye” which is capable of producing a new plant.
Ex-Potato

4. 4. Bulbs-
Stem covered with modified leaves which can produce a new plant
Ex: Onion
5. Food Storing Roots-
Roots which are capable of producing a new plant
Ex: carrots & beets

5. Artificial Propagation
Method of Asexual reproduction
most used in agriculture
1. Cuttings- pieces of stem cut from parent kept in water, moist soil or sand
Will put out new roots.
Ex:-Many garden plants

6. 2. Grafting-
Buds or sections are cut from one plant
Attached to another that is already rooted in the soil.
Ex- Roses, Fruit Trees
3. Tissue culture-
pieces of the center of stem are removed
placed in flasks with growth medium
a whole new plant will develop

7. Photosynthesis in Plants
Chlorophyll- green pigment in plants
Converts light energy to chemical energy in the form of carbohydrates
Sugars can be broken down to release ATP
Photosynthesis- process where plants trap energy to build carbohydrates
6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight energy 
C6 H12 O6 + 6O2

9. CELLULAR RESPIRATION C6H12O6 + 6O2  6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy (ATP)
Reversed Photosynthesis Equation
Cellular respiration is what cells do to break up sugars into a food that the cell can use as energy.
This happens in all forms of life.
Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create:
ATP
chemical which the cell uses for energy.
Some simple organisms can only go through anaerobic cellular respiration.
