Categorize each structure below as either a female or male reproductive part of a flower.
Each term must be used only once!

Ovary
Stigma
Filament
Pistil

Female Reproductive Parts
Male Reproductive Parts

Some flowers can pollinate themselves ("self-pollination"). How is this possible?

plants are incapable of sexual reproduction, so they can always self-pollinate

pollinators, such as bees, carry pollen from other plants to those flowers to pollinate them

two eggs within the same flower are able to combine together to cause fertilization

the flower contains both male and female reproductive parts

Ɛhia

Which answer choice below most accurately describes what biology defines as a "fruit"?

the part of the plant containing seeds, which matures from the ovary of a flower

the part of the plant containing seeds, which matures from the stamen of a flower

an individual seed from a plant

the male reproductive structures of a plant

a sweet, colorful, and edible item grown on a plant

fleshy storage structures found primarily below-ground

Ɛhia

0.4

Plants are able to respond to their environment in a number of different ways. This often involves growing towards (positive) or away (negative) from a certain stimulus, called tropism. If a plant displays positive tropism, it is growing towards that stimulus. If a plant displays negative tropism, it is growing away from that stimulus.
Match each type of tropism below with the description that best applies to it.
Each answer can only be used once!

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Hydrotropism		a plant will usually bend and grow towards a light source
Thigmotropism		a plants' shoots and leaves will usually grow away from the direction that gravity pulls them, while the roots will usually grow towards that pull
Phototropism		some plants will curl around a fence, wall, or other solid structure, when they come into contact with it
Gravitropism		the roots of a plant will usually grow towards a nearby water source

The microscope images below show the upper (a) and lower (c) surfaces of a leaf from a certain plant species.
Based on these microscope images only, which conclusion below makes the most sense?

the pictures were taken at different times of the day - the upper image was likely taken during the night, while the lower image was likely taken during the day

this plant species is hydrophytic, because the leaf is well adapted for floating on water

this species is xerophytic, because the stomata are only located on the bottom of the leaf and not the upper surface of the leaf

this plant species is hydrophytic, because the stomata are only located on the bottom of the leaf and not the upper surface of the leaf

this species is xerophytic, because the leaf is well adapted for floating on water

[MARK ALL THAT APPLY!]
Which statement(s) below are TRUE?

The three main types of plant tissues are dermal, vascular, and ground.

Plants found in desert-like climates typically have increased numbers of stomata and very thin cuticle layers.

The main function of nodules is to help prevent water loss.

Animals are able to respond to their environment, but plants are not able to do so.

The two types of vascular tissue are phloem and xylem.

0.2

Which of the following terms best explains why so many of the plants that humans eat have dramatically modified plant parts (such as modified stems, roots, or leaves)?

Ɛhia

0.4

Reorder the events below so that they are listed from top (FIRST) to bottom (LAST), when you would expect them to occur during the reproduction processes of a certain flowering plant.

Seed and fruit are formed.
Seeds are released into the environment.
Egg becomes fertilized.
Downwards movement within the style.
Pollen located on stigma.
Release of pollen.
Fruit is eaten by an animal.
Pollen located on anther.

Which of these answer choices represents an edible modified root of a plant (based on our station activity)?

Ɛhia

0.3

The image below shows different examples of seed dispersal adaptations by different types of plants.
The main difference between angiosperms and gymnosperms involves a particular adaptation by angiosperms to help better disperse their seeds in a particular way. Which of the following best explains this angiosperm adaptation for seed dispersal?

surrounding the seed with a structure that is attractive and edible to encourage animals to eat them and disperse them

using sexual reproduction to create seeds, increasing the genetic diversity of the offspring

creating seeds that are surrounded by barbed spines that can easily stick to an animal walking by

growing seeds around a fertilized egg cell helps protect the new growing plant while it grows underground

making fewer seeds overall than gymnosperms, so they can concentrate all their energy and effort into creating a seed that is more likely to survive

Ɛhia

0.3

Tell me the one new thing you learned during the plant lab stations and/or these formative assignments that you thought was interesting/neat/cool in some way, and why you thought so!
If you really, truly knew 100% of the information covered in these activities and feel like you did not learn something new, then take a moment to look up a cool plant fact online and tell me the cool plant fact you found and why you thought it was cool!
Answer must be one complete sentence.
