Kinds of Land Plants 1. Non-vascular (primitive)
10
Kinds of Land Plants Non-vascular (primitive) -Simple structures
11
Kinds of Land Plants Non-vascular (primitive) -Simple structures -Must live in moist areas
12
Kinds of Land Plants Non-vascular (primitive) -Simple structures -Must live in moist areas -Absorb water through all body parts
13
Kinds of Land Plants Non-vascular (primitive) Ex. Mosses, liverworts, hornworts
14
Kinds of Land Plants Non-vascular (primitive) Ex. Mosses, liverworts, hornworts Human uses: used for fuel (burning) & diapers (primitive cultures)
15
Kinds of Land Plants 2. Vascular
16
Kinds of Land Plants 2. Vascular - land plant with vascular tissue
17
Kinds of Land Plants 2. Vascular - land plant with vascular tissue Vascular tissue – a system of tiny tubes
18
2 Kinds of Vascular Tissue Phloem -
19
2 Kinds of Vascular Tissue Phloem – transports food - movement is up & down
20
2 Kinds of Vascular Tissue Xylem -
21
2 Kinds of Vascular Tissue Xylem – transports water & minerals
22
2 Kinds of Vascular Tissue Xylem – transports water & minerals -Movement only upwards
23
2 Kinds of Vascular Tissue Xylem – transports water & minerals -Movement only upwards -Thick cell walls
24
Vascular Plants
25
Vascular Plants have roots, stems, and leaves
26
Roots -Anchor plant in ground
27
Roots -Anchor plant in ground -Absorb water & minerals from soil
28
Roots -Anchor plant in ground -Absorb water & minerals from soil -Store materials (food) for plant for later use
29
Roots 2 Types of roots:
30
Roots 2 Types of roots: 1. Fibrous (tangled mass) (ex. grass)
31
Roots 2 Types of roots: 2. Tap (deep & penetrating) (ex. carrots)
32
Stems - Provide support
33
Stems -Provide support -Transport materials (between roots & leaves)
34
Stems 2 Kinds of stems: 1. Herbaceous (green & soft) (Ex. dandelions)
35
Stems 2 Kinds of stems: 2. Woody (hard & rigid) - made of layers of xylem (ex. trees & shrubs)
36
Stems Typical structure: Outer bark (hard & protective) Phloem Vascular cambium (new growth area) Layers of xylem (growth rings) Pith (soft core)
37
Leaves - Produce food through photosynthesis
38
Leaves Typical Structure:
39
Leaves Photosynthesis:
40
Types of leaves 1. Needle-shaped (ex. Pine, spruce, hemlock, larch)
41
Types of leaves 2.Simple (one main stem; blade in one piece) (ex. Oak, maple, apple, cherry)
42
Types of leaves 3.Compound (leaf blade contains many stems; blade in several pieces) (ex. Locust, hickory, ash, walnut)
43
Vascular Tissue Dissection
