TRANSCRIPT
Definition: the attraction between two different molecules
Explain: The adhesion of the water to sheet shows attraction between the two which holds the drops of water onto it.
Definition: Fruit that
comes from one flower with many
pistils
Explain: A strawberry
is an aggregate fruit
because it comes
from a single flower
with many pistils.
Definition: fruit bearing
plant where the seeds
are in a closed ovary
Explain: Raspberries
are the fruit of a
raspberry plant which
is an angiosperm
because the
raspberries are used to
move the seeds away
from the parent plant.
Definition: a group of
phylum animals made up of
segmented worms
Explain: Earthworms
make up one of the
well-known out of
150,000 species in
the annelid group.
Definition: Filament is the stalk of the stamen where the anther is. The anther is where the pollen is in the stamen.
Explain: The anther and stamen are the outreaching long tubes with a brown top attached in the center of the flower.
Definition: producers from the food chain, an organism that makes organic molecules from chemosynthesis or photosynthesis
Explain: Aloe plant undergoes photosynthesis and cellular respiration to grow.
Definition: includes
mushrooms which are fungus with
spores that develop
in basidia
Explain: These mushrooms that are
fungus contain
spores.
Definition: plant that metabolizes necessary carbon through process with mesophylland bundle-sheath cells
Explain: This a corn field. Corn is a C4 plant because undergoes a different process in order not to lose water.
Definition: group of organic compounds that include sugars, starch, and cellulose that can be broken down to release energy
Explain: Black rice is an example of a carbohydrate like bread. It is a starch.
Definition: insoluble
solution that makes up most of plant cell
walls and vegetable
fibers
Explain: Paper is a cellulose which is
made of tree fibers
Definition: attraction
between molecules of the water that
hold them together
Explain: The water
molecules are
attracted together in
hold together in the
cup.
Definition: refers to
trees that lose the leaves according to
the seasons
Explain: This leaf
comes from a tree
that sheds its leaves
in the winter
Definition: division of animal king which is made up of bilaterally symmetrical animals
Explain: Fish are bilaterally symmetrical animals that fall under the deuterostomecategory.
Definition: part of
seed where food is stored for the
embryo
Explain: Endosperms
make up the edible
part of corn. The
corn kernels contain
the endosperm.
Definition: substance
that helps to speed up chemical
reactions
Explain: The
proteolytic
enzyme, bromelain is
found in pineapples.
Definition:
flammable gas that is hydrocarbon from
the alkene series
Explain: Ethylene is
naturally produced
by tomatoes and
other fruits. The gas
helps ripen the
tomato.
Definition: organism that has cells which are made up with DNA in chromosomes inside of the nucleus
Explain: The body of this human is made up of cells which contain nuclear membranes which prokaryotes don’t.
Definition: breaking
down chemically of a substance through
bacteria and yeasts
Explain: The wine
went through the
process of
fermentation to
obtain its alcohol.
Definition: female
part of flower located at the base
of the carpel which
turns into a fruit after
fertilizing
Explain: The ovary of
the flower in located
in the middle of the
male parts.
Definition: Fleshy are formed from a single flower or many flowers with one or many seeds in it. Dry have seeds in seedpods that release seeds and then ones that don’t have pods but open
Explain: Apples are fleshy because they form from flowers and have many seeds. Peanuts are dry because they are seeds and fruit that have been kept in pods.
Definition: plant
hormone that helps promote plant
growth
Explain: Gibberellins
are sprayed on
seedless grapes to
help their growth.
Definition: where the
hardest timber of a tree is or the inner
part of the trunk
Explain: The inner
part of the trunk can
be seen from this
mature tree trunk.
Definition: organism with reproductive organs for both female and male
Explain: Rose contain both male and female organs which means they will probably get fertilized from the pollen of the same flower.
Definition: fibrous
protein that makes up hair and hoofs
Explain: This keratin
oil can be added to
hair to strength it
and grow healthier.
Definition: these
leaves last more than one growing
season
Explain: The leaves
on this Christmas tree
have lasted more
than one growing
season.
Definition: area of
plant tissue at the tips of roots that form
new cells and
growth
Explain: The stem of the green pepper is
the meristem.
Definition: insect who
takes pollen from flower to flower
Explain: Bees take
pollen from flower to
flower.
Definition: symmetry
that is circled around the central axis
Explain: Sand dollars
have radial
symmetry through its
fingers.
Definition:
underground stem that grows
continuosuly
Explain: Ginger is the
rhizome of the
zingiber plant.
Definition: vascular
tissue that moves water up from the
roots of the plant
Explain: Water
moves up in the
xylem vessels in
celery
Definition: shelled egg where embryo can grow in an amniotic sac and has a nourishing yolk
Explain: These eggs are produced by birds like chicken whose eggs are made of calcium carbonate shells.
Definition: this tissue
connects and supports organs or
tissues
Explain: The bone
and cartilage in the
hand are both types
of connective tissue.
Definition: tissue that
covers the body’s internal surface and
organs
Explain: The skin on
this hand is an
example of epithelial
tissue as it covers the
internal parts of the
body.
Definition: a plant
that can survive with little water
Explain: Aloe is a
plant that needs little
water to
live, allowing it to live
in dry habits or with
people who forget
to water it.
Definition: The breaking down of carbohydrates and turning into glucose. When not in use, the glucose is stored connectively and this is called glycogen.
Explain: To restore glycogen in the body, one can eat a carbohydrate like bread which like be turned into glucose when broken down then stored as glycogen.
Definition: species of animals with few offspring, they can live long, low mortality reproduce late, are near carrying capacity. Take care of young as well.
Explain: A dog is a k-strategist because they take care of their offspring and have a low mortality rate.
Definition: an organism that genes have been modified by genetic engineering
Explain: Rice has been enriched for vitamins genetically by changing three genes that produce betacarotene which prevents the removal from husks during milling.
Definition: one of the two divisions of flowering plants that has petals in multiples of three and parallel veins.
Explain: Musaceae, the banana family is part of the monocot family. This banana is fruit of the plant that comes from the flower.

their needs
Explain: Carrots have
modified roots which
are for water
storage.
