Organ made of plant tissues that allows the plant to make food through photosynthesis

Organ made of plant tissues that allows the plant to support itself, connects roots and leaves, AND carries water and nutrients between them

plant tissue that transports water and nutrients throughout the plant body.

Group of similar specialized cells that perform a specific function

Based on thousands upon thousands of experiments using the scientific method

Organ made of plant tissues that allows the plant to absorb water and minerals from the ground. Anchors plant in ground.

The variable that is made different in an experiment (the cause)

How is the amount of leaves left on a tree effected by the amount of daylight? Identify the dependent variable.

group of 2 or more different tissues that work together to perform a certain function

How is the amount of leaves left on a tree effected by the amount of daylight? Identify the controlled variable.

plant tissue that functions in photosynthesis, storage, and support

The variable that is kept the same in an experiment

How is the amount of leaves left on a tree effected by the amount of daylight? Identify the independent variable.

A logical, systematic approach to the solution of a scientific problem by using an experiment

Leaves, Roots, Stem, Etc.

The variable that is measure in an experiment (the effect)

plant tissue that makes up the waxy outer layer of the plant
