Question

part 5 - plant processes matching

1. photosynthesis a. flowers, cones, spores
2. transpiration b. stomata, dermal tissue, guard cells
3. reproduction c. leaf, chloroplast, xylem, phloem, vascular tissue

Explanation:

• Photosynthesis: It occurs in the leaf (an organ), chloroplast (the organelle where the process happens), and involves vascular tissue (xylem and phloem for transporting water, nutrients, and the products of photosynthesis). So, it matches with option C.
• Transpiration: It is the loss of water vapor from plants. Stomata (pores on the leaf surface) are involved, which are part of the dermal tissue and are regulated by guard cells. So, it matches with option B.
• Reproduction: In plants, flowers (in angiosperms), cones (in gymnosperms), and spores (in non - vascular and some vascular plants like ferns) are all related to the reproductive process. So, it matches with option A.

Answer:

1. C. leaf, chloroplast, xylem, phloem, vascular tissue
2. B. stomata, dermal tissue, guard cells
3. A. flowers, cones, spores
