Plant Kingdom Notes
Producers that have cell walls
- Have no “pipes” to transport water and nutrients - Small in size - First plants to inhabit a new environment - Reproduce using spores
- Have “pipes” to deliver water and nutrients - Reproduce using spores - Ex: Ferns
- Have “pipes” to deliver water and nutrients - Reproduce using spores - Use pollen and seeds to reproduce - Plant that use flowers to reproduce and have seeds in fruit - Ex: Apple Tree - Ex: Ferns
- Have “pipes” to deliver water and nutrients - Reproduce using spores - Use pollen and seeds to reproduce - Plant that use flowers to reproduce and have seeds in fruit - Ex: Apple Tree - Plants that produce seeds in cones - Ex: Pine Tree - Ex: Ferns
Transports water and minerals throughout a plant Transports food 1) Support and anchor 2) Absorb water from soil 3) Storage of food Carnations carnations
Photosynthesis Waxy protective covering Cacti: hard pointed needles and Venus Flytrap: catches insects 1) Support 2) Transport materials from roots to leaves 3) Storage
1) Filament 2) Anther: produces pollen (plant sperm) 1) Stigma: sticky to catch pollen 2) Style: tube that leads to eggs 3) Ovary: holds eggs Purpose of Flowers: to attract insects
Transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma (egg) When the pollen (sperm) unites with the egg A young plant that is protected and nourished Cones Fruits
Wind, animals, water It becomes inactive to survive drought or cold temperatures When the young plant starts to grow and push out of the seed Fruit: Ripened ovary Animals eat fruit and disperse the seeds What is a fruit and how does an angiosperms plant disperse it’s seeds? _Vegetable
Plant growth in response to a stimulus Change in growth due to light Plants bend toward the light Change in growth due to gravity Growth toward or away from the pull of gravity
Flower only when days are short and nights are long Flower only when days are long and nights are short Have leaves all year Lose all leaves at some point in the year Prevents large amounts of water loss
