8. 1. A gymnosperm Is a seed plant that produces “naked” seeds (they are not inside a fruit) Usually has needle-like or scale-like leaves and a deep growing root system.

9. 2. Different types of gymnosperms are Cycads are usually found in tropical areas Conifers are cone-bearing plants; the largest gymnosperm group Ginkgoes – today there is only one species left; Ginkgo biloba Gnetophytes live in hot deserts and tropical rainforests

12. 3. Most gymnosperms reproduce with cones Cones are covered with scales There are usually two different cones: – Male cones produce pollen – Female cones contain an ovule

15. 4. Pollination is A transfer of pollen from the male reproductive structure to the female After pollination, the egg is fertilized and seeds are dispersed by the wind

16. 5. Gymnosperms provide many useful products Paper Lumber used for building homes Rayon fibers in clothes Cellophane wrappers on food Turpentine in paint Rosin

18. Angiosperms

19. 1. Angiosperms are Flowering plants that produce – Flowers – Seeds inside fruits Found everywhere on Earth

20. 2. The flower is the reproductive structure of the plant Come in all shapes and sizes: – Complete flower – Incomplete flower Flowers include: – Sepals and petals – Stamens – Pistils

21. 3. The Sepals and Petals Sepals are leaf-like structures that protect the flower when it is a bud Petals are colorful leaf-like structures Petals vary from plant to plant. In fact, not all flowers have petals!

22. 4. Stamens Stamens are the male reproductive parts – Filament (thin stalk) – Anther (produces pollen; sits on top of stalk)

23. 5. Pistils Pistils are the female reproductive parts – Stigma (sticky tip) – Style (a slender tube that connects stigma and ovary) – Ovary (contains eggs that become seeds)

25. 6. Pollinators Insects, birds, and bats are attracted to a flower’s color, shape, or smell. They help carry pollen from one flower to another

26. 7. Reproduction in angiosperms Pollen falls on the stigma Sperm from the pollen fertilized the egg in the ovule Seed develops Ovule swells and grows around the seed as a fruit

27. 8. Types of angiosperms Two major groups are monocots and dicots Monocots – Have one seed leaf – Long slender leaves; parallel veins – Flowers have 3 petals or multiples of 3 – Example: corn, wheat, rice Dicots – Have two seed leaves – Leaves are wide with branched veins – Flowers have 4 or 5 petals or multiples of 4 or 5 – Example: roses, violets, dandelions
