Pollination/Fertilization 100
The reason flowers need to be adapted for
pollination.
What is to attract
pollinators because
they are rooted and
can not move to get
pollinated?
Pollination/Fertilization 200
If you planted an ovule, it _________
grow. Explain.
What is it would NOT grow because it
has not been fertilized?
Pollination/Fertilization 300
What are the 2 types of pollination?
How are they different?
What is self and cross pollination? Self
pollination is when pollen from the same plant
pollinates itself and cross is from plant to plant?
Pollination/Fertilization 400
There are many ways that plants are pollinated.
What are 3 ways plants are pollinated besides
animals.
What are wind, rain,
and gravity?
Pollination/Fertilization 500
The difference between pollination
and fertilization is ________.
What is pollination is when pollen from an
anther contacts the sticky stigma and
fertilization is when the sperm nuclei unites
with the egg nucleus in the ovary (creating the
seed- containing embryo, endosperm, and
cotyledon).
Bacteria 100
Scientist that studies microbes and other
small living things.
What is a microbiologist?
Bacteria 200
Characteristic needed to be in the
Kingdom Monera (Bacteria).
What is prokaryotic—no nuclear
membrane, no membrane bound
structures?
Bacteria 300
A way that
microbes can be
harmful.
What is they can cause diseases
that kill?
Bacteria 400
Three ways that bacteria can be helpful.
What are:
- protects your body from diseases
-helps you digest food
-recycles materials (breaks down substances)
- makes food (such as cheese and yogurt)
-medicines
-clean up oil spills
Bacteria 500
Explain how bacteria produced
oxygen in the atmosphere.
What is blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) were the first
organisms to undergo photosynthesis. They took in the
sun’s energy, water and carbon dioxide to produce glucose
(which provides them with energy). The waste product of
photosynthesis is oxygen, so as the algae photosynthesized
they released oxygen which eventually built up in the
atmosphere allowing us to breathe and producing the
ozone layer which protects us from the sun’s harmful
rays.
Fungi 100
Act as “seeds” for the fungus.
What are spores?
Fungi 200
Three ways fungus can be helpful.
What is recycling, breaking down organic
matter, food making, pest control, medicine
or decomposing pesticides?

Fungi 400
The input and outputs of
fermentation.
What is input-sugar and
outputs- CO2 and alcohol?
Fungi 500
How do fungi get food?
What is it releases enzymes that
break down organic material and
the hyphae absorb the nutrients?
Plant Structures 100
The purpose of a leaf.
What is photosynthesis?
Plant Structures 200
Definition of fruit.
What is ripened ovary that
holds seeds?
Plant Structures 300
Purpose of a flower.
What is to reproduce?
Plant Structures 400
Definition of a perfect flower.
What is a flower that has male
and female reproductive parts?
Plant Structures 500
The male and female reproductive
parts and their structures.
Male – The stamen made up of anther
and filament?
Female - What is pistil made up of
stigma, style, and ovary?
Misc. 100
The inputs and outputs of
photosynthesis
Inputs – Sunlight, water and CO2
Outputs – Sugar and oxygen
Misc. 200
Describe guard cells. (What do
they look like, how do they
work, and what do they do?)
What are a pair of sausage shaped
cells . To open water enters the
guard cells. As they fill up they
buckle and the stomata open. They
control the amount of water that goes
in and out of the leaf.
Misc. 300
What is the purpose of stomata?
To control the movement of gases like
carbon dioxide, oxygen and water
vapor into and out of the cell.
Misc. 400
Describe how yeast helps make
bread rise.
What is when baker’s yeast is mixed with water and added to
warm, moist dough, the yeast cells become active. They begin to
reproduce by budding, and fermentation occurs, carbon dioxide
and alcohol are produced, the gas (carbon dioxide) becomes
trapped in the dough so it makes the dough expand, when the
bread is baked the dough stays in this expanded shape.

The difference between
xylem and phloem is
____________________.
What is xylem moves water and
phloem moves food throughout
the plant?
