PLANt KINGDOM
CHARACTERISTICSEukaryotic cellAutotrophic nutrition (photosynthesis)Multicellular organisms.Reproduction: Asexual (spores or fragments ) Sexual (seeds)Interaction: movements of growth.
Classification of plantsPlants without seeds: Plants without flowers that reproduce
trhough spores and live in wet environment to be able to reproduce.
Plants with seeds:They have flowers that contain the
reproductive organs and have seeds wich propagate better than spores. Spermatophytes
EVOLUTION IN PLANTSWITHOUT SEEDS WITH SEEDS
(Spermatophyta)
Mosses Ferns Gymnosperms Angiosperms
(bare seeds) (fruits)
Evolutionary time
Plants without seedsMossesNo tissues or organs.They reproduce by
spores formed in capsules. (Sporangium)
Non-vascular (no xylem or phloem tissue)
Without true roots, leaves or stems. With rhizoids.
The surface must remain moist
Plants without seedsFernsThey have roots, stem ,
underground stem (rhizome) and leaves (fronds)
Spores are formed on the underside of the frond in sorus.
They live in humid habitats , they need a lot of water to survive.
The reproduction is complex. The cycle involves spores and gametes!!!!
Fern
Plants with seeds but no fruitGYMNOSPERMSSeeds are not enclosed in a fruit. Conifers are the
most common gymnosperms.They are trees; they have thin and waterproof leaves.The majority are trees.The flowers are the cones that
contain their reproductive structures. Unisexual.Female cones: larger than male cones. Central axis and
sclaes arranged in a spiral shape around it. Each scale contains two ovules.
Male cones: smaller and grow in clusters. The scales contain millions of pollen grains.
A pine tree’s seed is called pine nut.
Plants with both seeds and fruits.AngiospermsMost are deciduous trees. Flowers have calix and
corolla. They can be unisexual or hermaphrodite.Seeds are developed into a fruit that comes form the
fertilisation of an ovule. Ovules and pollen grains are produced in the stamen
and carpels.Pollination is the transference of the pollen from the
anther to the stigma.The fertilised ovule develops into a seed that
contains an embryo (with food) and a seed coat . The ovary ripens into the fruit that contains the seeds
Flower structure
Seed structure
Plant structureOrgans:1. Roots: to anchor the plant and to absorb
water and mineral salts2. Stem: to support leaves, flowers and fruits.
It contains a system of vascular vessels that transport sap
1. Xylem: from roots to leaves2. Phloem: from the leaves to everywhere3. Leaves: with a waxy layer and stomata.
Photosynthesis
Leaf types
