6. 5.5.3 Distinguish between the following phyla of plants, using simple external recognition features: bryophyta, filicinophyta, coniferophyta, and angiospermophyta
Filicinophyta
plants – have vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) to conduct water and sugars
Have true roots, stems and leaves
Do not produce flowers, pollen or seeds
Reproduce by producing
Sperm eggs and fertilize
Ferns usually grow in places with
Zygote grows into

7. Ferns
frond
fiddlehead
This is the sporophyte (fern) which produces spores that grow into a gametophyte.
This is the gametophyte, called a prothallus, which produces egg and sperm
Sperm fertilizes egg to create zygote that grows into the sporophyte (fern)
