The filament is almost a stem-like structure to support the anther, the pollen producing part of the stamen. Inside of the flower you can clearly see the anther, filament, and the pollen created on the sides of the petals.]]> 2017-06-16 17:29:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176686937 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176687151 Auxin is a plant hormone that allows plants to grow and develop. This hormone helps with the growth of the stem, new stems emerging from the plant, and is also found in the buds of flowers.]]> 2017-06-16 17:32:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176687151 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176687565 Bilateral Symmetry is when both the left and right sides are or nearly are identical to one another. The spider in the center of this picture is an example of bilateral symmetry in animals and the leaves can be an example of bilateral symmetry in plants.]]> 2017-06-16 17:38:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176687565 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176687849 C3 plants use a carbon fixation with a C3 molecule only. These plants keep their stomata open all day and closed at night and typically are able to survive better in cooler climates with regular precipitation. This red maple tree is an example of a C3 plant.]]> 2017-06-16 17:42:27 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176687849 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176688336 CAM plants are mostly found in hot, dry climates. During the day, CAM plants keep their stomata closed to avoid losing water. Then, at night, they open their stomata to take in CO2. Most succulents, like aloe(pictured below), are CAM plants.]]> 2017-06-16 17:49:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176688336 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689479 Cambium is the plant tissue that makes up a secondary layer of protection for the plant. The two layers of cambium are cork cambium and vascular cambium. The lighter colored material inside of the bark is the cork cambium and the darker, thinner line of material is the vascular cambium of this tree.]]> 2017-06-16 18:05:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689479 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689673 Cellular respiration is the process in which a plant undergoes several processes including glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation to form ATP, the energy of the plant. These processes together is cellular respiration and occurs in the mitochondria of all plant cells.]]> 2017-06-16 18:09:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689673 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689744 Cellulose is a polysaccharide found in the cell walls for structural support of the cell/plant. Plant fibers, like flax and cotton, are excellent sources of cellulose but can also be found in all plant cell walls. Below is a plant with an especially strong stem which exemplifies the structural support that cellulose gives.]]> 2017-06-16 18:11:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689744 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689874 Commensalism is the relationship between two species where they can benefit one another, but the species are neutral to one another. The relationship between the tree lichen(green, flowery growth) and the tree is an example of commensalism. The lichen does not draw nutrients from the tree because of photosynthesis, and the trees are nothing but used as places for lichens to grow.]]> 2017-06-16 18:13:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176689874 jakobmakover https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176690154 The cuticle layer of the plant is a layer on top of the epidermal cells of plants to keep water from escaping and drying the plant. This layer is waxy and water repellent because of the presence of the substance, cutin. The picture shows the cuticle layer's water repellant ability.]]> 2017-06-16 18:17:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jakobmakover/kk6jmvyniehi/wish/176690154
