Growth Binomial nomenclature Plant tissue Irrigation Other
100
Is the growth of an organism in response to a light stimulus.
What is phototropism
100
Two names to name something. It is a system used to classify species into organized categories according to their genetics.
What is binomial nomenclature?

Evapotranspiration (ET) is the combination of evaporation and transpiration. Evaporation is water movement from wet soil and leaf surfaces. Transpiration is water movement through the plant. This water movement helps move vital nutrients through the plant. Essentially a plant is breathing and sweating.
What is evapotranspiration
100
Is a type of micro-irrigation system that has the potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants
What is drip irrigation?
100
is a non-native species that spreads from the point of introduction and becomes abundant, and causes harm to humans or the environment.
What does invasive mean? Give an example.
200
Is a coordinated process of differential growth by a plant or fungus in response to gravity pulling on it.
What is gravitropism
200
A group of any rank, such as a species, family, or class.
What is a taxon?
200
What is xylem?
This is one of the two types of transport tissue in vascular plants, phloem being the other. The basic function is to transport water from roots to stems and leaves, but it also transports nutrients.
200
Method of crop irrigation in which equipment rotates around and crops are watered with sprinklers
What is center pivot irrigation?
200
an original or indigenous inhabitant
What does native mean? Give an example.
300
Is light-mediated development, where plant growth patterns respond to the light spectrum
What is photomorphogenesis?
300
Genus and species
What two taxa are used for binomial nomenclature?
300
What is phloem?
Is the living tissue in vascular plants that transports the soluble organic compounds such as sugars.
300
Where water is applied and distributed over the soil by gravity
What is surface irrigation?
300
an organism that is not native to a region but has established itself. Typically is not an excessive problem.
What does naturalized mean? Give an example.
400
Cold weather improves yield, reduces vegetation. Warm weather reduces yield, improves vegetation.
What happens to a fruit plant's yield and vegetative mass (that can endure) when it is put in cold weather? What about warm weather?
400
Latin was picked since it is a fairly dead language and is universally recognized for its value in classifying organisms. No or minimal translation is needed since it is its own language and code.
What language is used for binomial nomenclature? Why do you think they picked this language? Think about it.
400
A place where plants are grown for transplanting, for use as stock for budding and grafting, or for sale
Define a nursery.
400
a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment.
Define ecosystem.
500
Doman, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species
Name all the taxa in order
500
Drip irrigation and center pivot would work. Surface irrigation could work but would have to be executed in a way that isolates applied water from water in the environment.
What kind of irrigation would work best for nurseries in Florida? What would not work?
500
a large naturally occurring community of flora and fauna occupying a major habitat, e.g. forest or tundra.

describes how an organism or population responds to the distribution of resources and competitors and how it in turn alters those same factors.
