1. Structure and Function of Plants Foldable

2. Fold your sheet in half along the crease line.

3. Open your foldable and label it like this.
Structures
Functions
Open your foldable and label it like this.
Draw lines that match those on the front.

4. Cut flaps on folds by cutting the first layer only.  

5. Fill in your foldable with the notes provided
Fill in your foldable with the notes provided. Structure will go on one side and function will go on the other. Adaptations to the environment will go on the back.

7. Anther -produces pollen Pollen Stigma & Style Ovary
Structure
Anther
Pollen
Stigma & Style
Ovary
Function
-produces pollen
-haploid male gametes (sex cells)
-Sticky top of style where pollen lands. The Style transports it to the ovary.
-Female organ which produces female gametes
Floral

8. Fertilization of a flower
Stamen (male)
Pistil
(female)
Fertilization of a flower

9. Adaptation to Environment
1. Bright colors and sweet nectar to attract pollinators.
2. Development of Fruit for seed dispersal.
Pollinators

10. Leaves

11. Structure
Upper Epidermis
Palisade Layer
Spongy Layer
Lower Epidermis
Function
-contains cuticle; prevents water loss
Light reactions of photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis and storeage of CO2, O2, and H2O
Lets CO2 in and O2 out and
water out through stoma; controlled by guard cells

13. Adaptation to Environment
Thick cuticle in dry climates.
Few stomata to prevent water loss.
Reduced surface area of leaves to prevent water loss. (Cactus spines)
Leaf Adaptations

14. Stems
Stems

15. Structure
Xylem
Phloem
Function
-vascular tissue (tubes) that carry water from the roots to the leaves for photosynthesis and to other parts of the plant.
-Vascular tissue (tubes) that carry sugar from the leaves to other parts of the plant.
Vascular tissue

16. Adaptation to the Environment
Stiff cell walls for trunks and branches. Dead Xylem becomes the wood on the inside of tree trunks.
Can be modified to store food. Ex. Tubers (potatoes) and Bulbs

17. Roots

18. -protection and absorption of water and minerals.
Structure
Epidermis and root cap
Root hairs
Root tips
Function
-protection and absorption of water and minerals.
-increase surface area for absorption
- tip of root that is growing into the soil (area of mitosis).

21. Adaptation to the Environment
Can be modified to store starch and sugar. (Carrots, Beets, Turnips)
In dry climates root systems can be extremely long to reach water or spread out on the surface.
Anchor plant into soil.
