Glucose
1 of 16
A pore in a plant leaf that controls the passage of gases into and out of the plant
Stomata
2 of 16
A mature haploid male or female germ cell which is able to unite with another of the opposite sex in sexual reproduction to form a zygote.
Gamete
3 of 16
The action or process of fertilizing an egg or a female animal or plant, involving the fusion of male and female gametes to form a zygote.
Fertilization

The action of breathing.
Respiration
5 of 16
The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a by-product.
Photosynthesis
6 of 16
The semipermeable membrane surrounding the cytoplasm of a cell.
Cell membrane
7 of 16
The part of the alimentary canal which connects the throat to the stomach. In humans and other vertebrates it is a muscular tube lined with mucous membrane
Oesophagus
8 of 16
The process of taking air into and expelling it from the lungs.
Breathing
9 of 16
The organs and glands in the body that are responsible for digestion. The digestive system begins with the mouth and extends through the oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine, ending with the rectum/anus
Digestive System
10 of 16
The respiratory system is the set of organs that allows a person to breathe and exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body. An example of respiratory system is the human's nasal passages, larynx, trachea, bronchial tubes and lungs.
Respiratory System
11 of 16
The system that circulates blood and lymph through the body, consisting of the heart, blood vessels, blood, lymph, and the lymphatic vessels and glands.
Circulatory System

In biology, common limiting factor resources are environmental conditions that limit the growth, abundance, or distribution of an organism or a population of organisms in an ecosystem.
Limiting Factor

An acronym often used to help remember all the necessary features of living organisms: Movement, Respiration, Sensitivity, Growth, Reproduction, Excretion and Nutrition.
MRS GREN
14 of 16
A rigid layer of polysaccharides lying outside the plasma membrane of the cells of plants, fungi, and bacteria. In the algae and higher plants it consists mainly of cellulose.
Cell Membrane
15 of 16
The layered structure that makes up the stomach, consisting of a serous coat, a muscular coat, a mucous membrane, and other tissue layers in between.
