1. Tracheophyta: the seed plants

2. Two different kinds
Gymnosperms: have an unprotected seed (naked in cone like structures)
Angiosperms: seeds are enclosed and protected inside a fruit

3. Adaptations of seed plants
Can reproduce without water (wind or other creatures can carry genetic material)
There are separate male and female gametophytes

4. Gymnosperms Have thin, needle like leaves (covered by a waxy cuticle)
Roots extend over a wide surface area to hold the tree firmly in one place and access a lot of nutrients/water from the soil
Tend to live in colder/harsher climates
Ex: Evergreen trees!

5. Angiosperms
Have flowers (known as flowering plants) for attracting pollinators (like insects or birds)
Flowers have both male and female structures
Male (Stamen):
Anther :produces pollen
Filament: thin stalk that holds anther out of the flower
Female (Carpel/Pistil)
Stigma: where pollen gets deposited
Style: a slender stalk leading from stigma to the ovary
Ovary: contains ovule (egg cell)

7. Make sure you know the life cycles of seed plants pg 266 and pg 269

8. Coevolution
Some specific insect or animals are attracted to the nectar in specific flowers (and will thus pollinate them)
It is believed they evolved together: plant feeding insect while insect helps plant reproduce
