Plant Anatomy

1. This is the main process by which plants grow.
   
   1. What is photosynthesis?
   2. What is respiration?
   3. What is meiosis?
      
      
2. This is the main energy source for plants.
   
   1. What is glucose?
   2. What is the sun?
   3. What is oxygen?
      
      
3. These are three major nutrients required for plant growth.
   
   1. What are oxygen (O), phosphorus (P) and calcium (Ca)?
   2. What are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K)?
   3. What are hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N) and potassium (K)?
      
      
4. This is an excellent way to provide nutrients to the soil for plants to grow.
   
   1. What is fungus?
   2. What is crop dusting?
   3. What is recycling tree leaves or grass clippings?
      
      
5. This is where most plants obtain their nutrients.
   
   1. What is air?
   2. What is water?
   3. What is soil?
      
      
6. This is the makeup of the soil.
   
   1. What is soil pH?
   2. What is soil texture?
   3. What is soil temperature?
      
      
7. This carries nutrients away from the soil due to a poor soil texture.
   
   1. What is leaching?
   2. What is watering?
   3. What is run off?
      
      
8. This would be the ideal pH for maximum absorption of nutrients.
   
   1. What is a pH range of 2.0 - 2.5?
   2. What is a pH range of 9.0 - 9.5?
   3. What is a pH range of 6.0 - 6.5?
      
      
9. These are nutrients needed in small amounts by a plant to grow.
   
   1. What are vitamins?
   2. What are micronutrients?
   3. What are macronutrients?
      
      
10. These are main nutrients, required by the plant, but are usually available without adding fertilizer.
    
    1. What are primary nutrients?
    2. What are secondary nutrients?
    3. What are micronutrients?
       
       
11. Plants naturally obtain these critical elements from the air and water.
    
    1. What are oxygen, carbon and hydrogen?
    2. What are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium?
    3. What are carbon, nitrogen and oxygen?
       
       
12. These nutrients cannot be absorbed well at a higher pH.
    
    1. What are macronutrients?
    2. What is water?
    3. What are micronutrients?
       
       
13. This is a critical element for protein formation, is present in chlorophyll and aids in seed production.
    
    1. What is nitrogen?
    2. What is phosphorus?
    3. What is oxygen?
       
       
14. This is a critical element for formation of starches and enables the plant to withstand stress.
    
    1. What is hydrogen?
    2. What is calcium?
    3. What is phosphorus?
       
       
15. This is a major element that aids the plant in disease resistance.
    
    1. What is iron?
    2. What is potassium?
    3. What is nitrogen?
       
       
16. This micronutrient is essential in the formation of chlorophyll.
    
    1. What is calcium?
    2. What is hydrogen?
    3. What is iron?
