Benchmark: Relate the structure of each of the major plant organs and tissues to physiological processes.
Objectives:
1. Student can explain the basic characteristics of plants plant organs: roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and cones.
2. Students can diagram and explain the physiological processes: photosynthesis, cellular respiration, transpiration, and reproduction.
3. Students can explain the role of plant tissues: meristematic, ground, dermal, and vascular tissues in the plant.
4. Students can describe how plant structures relate to their functions, including: cambium, guard cells, phloem, seed, stomata, and xylem
