Botany Terms flashcards are a set of cards that contain important vocabulary words related to the field of botany. These flashcards can help students learn and remember key terms used in the study of plants and their characteristics.
Botany is the scientific study of plants, including their structure, growth, reproduction, and classification. It is a branch of biology that focuses on all aspects of plant life, from tiny mosses to towering trees.
Using flashcards can be a helpful way to study and memorize new information. They provide a quick and interactive way to review material, test your knowledge, and reinforce learning. Flashcards can be used on your own or with a study partner to make learning fun and effective.

quick facts
Botany is the study of plants, including their structure, growth, reproduction, and classification.
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into food.
Germination is the process by which a seed begins to grow into a new plant.
Stamen is the male reproductive organ of a flower, which produces pollen.
Deciduous trees are those that shed their leaves in the fall and remain bare during the winter.

Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis: The process by which plants use sunlight to make food.
Chlorophyll
Chlorophyll: Green pigment in plants that helps them make food through photosynthesis.
Stomata
Tiny openings on the surface of leaves that allow plants to exchange gases.
Xylem
Xylem: Plant tissue that transports water and nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant.
Phloem
The tissue in plants that transports sugars and nutrients from the leaves to other parts of the plant.
Pollination
Pollination: The transfer of pollen from the male part of a flower to the female part, leading to fertilization and the production of seeds.
Germination
The process of a seed sprouting and growing into a plant.
Transpiration
The process by which plants release water vapor through their leaves.
Pistil
Female reproductive organ of a flower.
Stamen
Male reproductive part of a flower.
Sepal
The sepals are the outer part of a flower that protect the developing bud.
Petal
The colorful part of a flower that attracts pollinators.
Ovary
The ovary is the female reproductive organ that produces eggs.
Fruit
Mature ovary of a flowering plant containing seeds.
Seed dispersal
Seed dispersal: the movement of seeds away from the parent plant to new locations.
Root system
The roots of a plant that anchor it in the ground and absorb water and nutrients.
Leaf morphology
Leaf morphology: The study of the physical characteristics and shapes of leaves.
Flower structure
The parts of a flower, including the petals, stigma, style, ovary, and stamen.
Plant hormones
Chemicals in plants that control growth and development.
Tropism
Tropism: a plant’s growth response to a stimulus, like light or gravity.
