Plant Poster Project Understanding xylem, phloem and photosynthesis!

Plant Poster Project You will create a poster to help you review plant facts, while being creative and following directions! In the trunk, include strips of information about xylem and phloem, and show the direction of movement in these tubes. In the leaves, include facts about photosynthesis and transportation system and vascular structure.
