General Characteristics
Eukaryotic Multicellular Autotrophic
Plant Classification
Vascular vs Nonvascular
Have vascular tissue (xylem and phloem)
Include the flowering plants (angiosperms) and cone bearing plants (gymnosperms)
Do not have vascular tissue
Do not grow very tall Must live in wet/moist
habitats
Photo-Moss
Photos-Liverworts
Photos-ferns, clubmoss, horsetails
Angiosperms Gymnosperms
Flowering plants Ex) maples, roses,
daffodils, poinsettias, grasses
Are broken up further into monocots and dicots
Cone bearing plants Ex) firs, pines, hemlock,
spruce

Sexual reproduction in plants involves flowers and cones!
Gymnosperms do not form flowers
Most gymnosperms are conifers such as pines and spruce
Seeds are produced on the scales of their reproductive structures-the cone
Angiosperms are flowering plants
The flower is a sex organ! Seeds are produced and
enclosed in a fruit
Define these terms:
Petals Stamens Anther Stigma Ovary
Sepals Calyx Corolla Filament Pistil Style Fruit
Label thisflower:
Attracting Pollinators
Pollination-the transfer of pollen from the anthers to the stigma
Self-pollination-transfer occurs on the same plant
Cross-pollination-transfer occurs between 2 different plants
Pollinators
1) Wind-flowers not very showy 2) Insects, birds, bats-attracted by colorful
flowers and attractive scents, sometimes the plant rewards these pollinators with nectar ( a sugary liquid)
Fruits and Seeds
After fertilization… Ovules become seeds Ovaries become fruit (for the protection and dispersal
of seeds)
Seeds=ripened ovules
3 parts 1) seed coat-protective outer covering 2) embryo-develops by mitosis after fertilization 3) endosperm-food storage
Seed dispersal-in order for a plant species to survive it must effectively disperse its seeds
Some adaptations: Lightweight seeds have attachments so they can be
carried by the wind Some float in water Burs or hooks that get stuck to mammals fur and
carried off Sweet fleshy fruits eaten by animals so the seeds will
be carried elsewhere Pressure inside the ovary causing seed pod to explode
Dormancy
-the ability of a seed to slow its growth or stop it altogether until conditions are favorable
Cotyledons
-the seed leaf, all angiosperm embryos have at least one
Sometimes it also functions as food storage like the endosperm
Monocot vs Dicot
Have only 1 cotyledon Leaves have parallel veins Flower parts are in 3’s Vascular tissue in the
stems are in scattered bundles
Have 2 cotyledons Leaves have net like veins Flower parts are in 4’s or
5’s Vascular tissue bundles
form a ring in the stem
