Phototropism – plants reaction to light
Positive = move towards the light
Negative = move away from the light
Gravatropism – plants reaction to gravity
Positive = grow with gravity (down)
Negative = grow against gravity (up)
Thigmatropism – plants reaction to touch

6. Create…
Your group will create and present a poster that
represents the connection between photosynthesis
and cellular respiration between a flowering plant and
an animal and other information. Make sure that you
include ALL of this information in your poster.
Molecules – CO2, H2O, C6H12O6, O2, ATP, and the sun!
Structures – Chloroplast, Mitochondria (in an animal),
lungs, blood stream, small intestine/villi, roots, leaves,
stems, xylem, phloem, stoma/stomata, and guard cells.
Terms/explanation to include – gravatropism and
phototropism.
Vascular Tissues – show what molecules are transported
and in what direction.
Flower Anatomy – show ALL of the male and female
reproductive organs.
