Plant Diversity Chapter 22
2
What is a Plant? Members of the Kingdom Plantae They are divided into 4 groups: Bryophytes, Ferns, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms They have cell walls made of cellulose Carry out photosynthesis using chlorophyll
3
Plant Life Cycle Alternation of generations: Diploid phase: sporophyte or spore producing plant meiosis Haploid phase: gametophyte or gamete producing plant mitosis
5
Bryophytes Mosses and their relatives Nonvascular plants: do not have vascular tissue (system of transport tubes) that conduct water and nutrients Depend on water for reproduction Osmosis Mosses, Liverworts, Hornworts
6
Bryophytes http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /30695-assignment-discovery-bryophytes- video.htm http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /30695-assignment-discovery-bryophytes- video.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcWYA nmm-QE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcWYA nmm-QE
8
Plants with Vascular Systems A vascular system is a system of tubes to transport water and nutrients in a plants Includes Ferns, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms. Ferns are Seedless Vascular Plants Gymno and Angiosperms are Vascular Seed Producing Plants
9
Vascular Plants Tissues Tracheids: cell that is specialized to conduct water Xylem: carries water upward from the roots to every part of a plant Pholem: Transports solutions of nutrients and carbohydrates
11
Ferns and their relatives Include club mosses, horsetails, and ferns Seedless vascular plants - they produce spores Have true roots, leaves, and stems http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /30696-assignment-discovery-ferns- video.htm http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /30696-assignment-discovery-ferns- video.htm
13
Vascular Seed Plants Divided into two groups: Gymnosperms and Angiosperms
14
Seed Plants Gymnoperms: bear seeds directly on the surface of cones http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9byV QxvMXs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9byV QxvMXs http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /30697-assignment-discovery- gymnosperms-video.htm http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /30697-assignment-discovery- gymnosperms-video.htm
15
Seed Plants Angiosperms: flowering plants that bear their seeds within a layer of tissue that protects the seed http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /27703-assignment-discovery- angiosperms-video.htm http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery /27703-assignment-discovery- angiosperms-video.htm
16
Seed Plant Reproduction Includes: Flowers or cones Pollen grain (male) http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery/3 0702-assignment-discovery-plant- reproduction-video.htm http://videos.howstuffworks.com/discovery/3 0702-assignment-discovery-plant- reproduction-video.htm
17
Monocots – 1 seed leaf Angiosperm Diversity
18
Dicots – 2 seed leaves
19
Annuals: complete a life cycle only in one growing season. Biennials: complete their life cycle in two years Perennials: live for more than two years
