Mosses (Bryophyta): Do not have true leaves. Instead they have a leaflike structure only one cell thick. Some species have cuticles and most have stomata.
Mosses use structure called: rhizoids to anchor themselves to soil, rocks, or tree trunks.
Mosses are often the first plants to grow on bare land. They can survive in deserts and tundras by remaining dormant unit water is available
Seedless non =vascular plants:
Liverworts (Hepatophyta): Live in damp environments. They gat moisture from the soil.
There are two basic forms: thallose and leafy. The thallose liverworts look like lobes of a liver and give the group its name. Leafy liverworts have stemlike and leaflike structures.
Seedless nonvascular plants:
Hornwarts (Anthocerophyta): Found in tropical forests and along streams all over the world.
The main plant body of a hornwort is flat and lobelike.
The name hornwort refers to the long spore like producing structures that look like horns.
Seedless nonvascular plants:
The Ferna(Pterophyta). The Club/Spike mosses (Lycophyta): These plants need water to reproduce, but their vascular system allows them to grow higher above the ground and get materials firm the soil.
Seedless nonvascular plants:
Cycadophyta (cycads): one of the three living phyla of gymnosperms that are Cycadophyta (cycad), Ginkgophyta (Ginkgo biloba) and Coniferophyta (conifers).
Gymnosperms: a seed plant whose seeds are not inside the fruit.
Angiosperms: a seed plant that has seeds enclosed in some type of fruit.
Flowering Plants (Anthophyta): Angiosperms belongs to a phylum Anthophyta/BioPills.
Google meaning : comprising flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed in an ovary.
Which of the following plants is from Pterophyta ?
Junipe, Orange, Pine, Fern
Fern sporophyte forms a stem underground called...........
rhizome (a thick underground stem that stores food).
Which of the following is vascular seeded plant ?
Liverworts, Mosses, Club mosses, Cycads
which of the following plants have needlelike or scale like leaves ?
gentophytes, conifres, flowering plants, cycads
A.............plants life spans two years
Biennial
Lifespans:
There are three basic types of lifespans occur in flowering plants.
Annuals: grow from a seed , produce flowers and die in one year, EX: corn, lettuce and some garden flowers are annuals.
Lifespans:
Biennials: take two years to complete a life cycle. During the first year the plant produces a short stem, leaves that grow close to the ground and an underground food reserve.
In second year, the food reserves are used to produce a taller stem, leaves, flowers and seeds, EX: carrots
Lifespans:
Perennials: Live for more than two years. Most woody plants, such as some grasses, die at the end of the fall and grow back in the spring.
.............have seeds that are part of the fruit.
Angiosperms
Plant cells have............but animals v=cells don't have it.
Chloroplast
Which of the following cells undergo photosynthesis ?
Collenchyma, Parenchyma, Sclerenchyma, Root hair
Ground Tissue Types:
:)
Ground Tissue Type
What is the function of Sclerenchyma cells in plants ?
Support
stone cells is a type of........cell
Sclerenchyma
which of the following plant cell can't divide ?
Parenchyma, Collenchyma, Sclerenchyma, Meristemic
The cause if the growth of grass after mowing or cutting the tips is......
Intercalary meristems
The 3 main tissues involved in plant growth and regrowth are: Apical meristem.
Intercalary meristem in leaf bases.
Lateral meristem/Tillers(also called shoots), rhizomes and stolons and buds.
Grasses have stems that can grow horizontally. Rhizomes and stolons are elongated and horizontal stems.
What is the benefit of xylem and phloem ?
Water and food transportation
The vascular system allows for the transport of water, minerals and sugars.
Water and dissolved minerals move through xylem.
Phloem carries sugar form the photosynthesis throughout the plant.
which vascular tissue carries food to plants :
Phloem
A hormone that causes the apical dominance phenomena in plants is.........
Auxin
Hormone
Chemical messenger produced in one part of an organism that affects the activity of cells in another part
Auxins
Make plant cells in the apical meristem or growing tip become longer, causing the main stem to grow upwards
Auxins
Also control some forms of tropism, which is the movement of a plant in response to an environmental stimulus
Gibberellins
Produce big changes in size, end seed dormancy, start germination and help young seedlings grow quickly
Gibberellins
Are also responsible for the large size of many fruits and fast upwards growth of some flower stalks
