Activity! Definition of a plant (Circle the words you don’t know) Any of various photosynthetic, eukaryotic, multi-cellular organisms of the Kingdom Plantae characteristically producing embryos, containing chloroplasts, having cell wall made of cellulose, and lacking the power of locomotion. Photosynthetic – Makes sugar from light. Eukaryotic – Cells with a nucleus. Multi-cellular – Made of many cells. Embryo – Young organism that grows inside. Chloroplast – An organelle that does photosynthesis. Cellulose – A complicated and strong sugar. Locomotion – To move. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Plants: Have cell walls and make their own food (photosynthesis), and lack the power of locomotion. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

The most familiar Eukaryotic cells are Plants Cells and Animal Cells

This is a picture of a plant cell. It has… Protective cell walls. Chloroplast for photosynthesis. Large storage vacuole that serves many purposes. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

There are many varieties of plants called Divisions.

Plants are divided into Divisions instead of Phylums. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

The energy flow of life occurs because of plants The energy flow of life occurs because of plants. Plants harness the energy from the sun, and pass it on to all other life forms. Except for extreme bacteria on the ocean floor and their predators that use chemosynthesis. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Between 500 and 400 million years ago, some algae made the transition to land, becoming land plants required a series of adaptations to help them survive out of the water. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

The first land plants Had to struggle with maintaining water in cells. But still need gas exchange. How to support yourself out of water. How to reproduce on land. How to anchor into ground. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Vascular plants appeared by 350 million years ago, with forests soon following by 300 million years ago. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Ginkgophyta (Ginkgo) Seeded plant. Living Fossil that dates back 270 million years.

Cycadophyta (Cycads) Seeded plants (Jurassic) Large crown and stout trunk

Gnetophyta (Gnetum & Welwitschia) Contain vessel elements (which transport water within the plant) as found in flowering plants. Relative to flowering plant.

Flowering plants appeared around 140 million years ago. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Angiosperm: Flowering, covered seed, produce seeds enclosed in a fruit /ovary.

They have become very successful. 96% of all vascular plant species. Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

Anthophyta: Flowering Plants. Flowers Fruits Vascular System.
