Modified leaf of a plant

 

MODIFIED LEAF OF A PLANT-  

  The flowers of the poinsettia plant are the yellow clustered buds in the center.  The colored leafy parts are actually bracts or modified leaves.

 

 

FERMENTATION-

 

An anaerobic(without oxygen)  cellular process in which organic foods are converted into simpler compounds and chemical energy (ATP) is produced.  Wine is an example.

PHLOEM-

In vascular plants, phloem is the living tissue that carries organic nutrients, particularly sucrose to all parts of the plant when needed.  In trees the phloem is the innermost layer of the bark.
