chlorophyll | the green pigment that captures light energy |
limiting factors | the factor in shortest supply when photosynthesis takes place |
transpiration | loss of water from evaporation via the stomata of the leaves |
translocation | the way sucrose is transported through the phloem |
xylem | carries water and dissolves minerals from the roots |
phloem | carries sucrose to the growing regions of the plants |
auxin | a plant hormone produced in the roots and shoots that controls growth |
phototropism | the response of a plant to light |
gravitropism/geotropism | the response of a plant to gravity |
hydrotropism | the response of a plant to water |

iodine | the chemical reagent that turns blue/black if starch is present |
stomata | controls what goes in and out of a leaf |
vascular bundle | tissue containing the xylem and the phloem together |
cambium | cells that separate the xylem and the phloem |
companion cell | cells joining phloem vessels that pump sucrose in and out of the sieve cells |
lignin | found in xylem, prevents cell collapse |

upper epidermis | second layer, lets light through |
palisade layer/mesophyll | contains chloroplast and chlorophyll, where photosynthesis takes place |
spongy layer/mesophyll | contains air spaces, increases surface area for gas exchange |
lower epidermis | bottom layer, keeps leaf together |
