1. Kingdom Plantae

2. Sources of Energy/ Nutrition
All are autotrophic
Also needs carbon dioxide and water to grow (germination)
Cells contain:
chloroplasts
cell wall.

3. Reproduction Vegetative propagation Asexual: Sexual:
Some plants use flowers and pollen to produce seeds
A SEED is a plant embryo surrounded by food supply and a protective coat.

4. Major Groups
1. Bryophytes-
non-vascular plants that obtain water by osmosis (Ex. Moss)

5. 2. Tracheophytes- vascular plants that obtain water by xylem and transport food by phloem (Ex. Oak tree)

6. Two types of Trachophytes
Angiosperms (flowering)
Ex: Dogwood Tree,
Gymnosperm
(cone bearing)
Example: Pine

7. RESPONSES
TROPISMS - movement of plants toward (positive) or away (negative) from a stimulus
PHOTOTROPISM growth of plant towards light
GRAVITROPISM  the gravity- directed growth process that directs both shoot and root growth throughout the plant’s lifecycle
THIGMOTROPISM reactions of the plants when they are in contact with solid objects
