Types of Plants – Seedless • Mosses (Bryophytes) • Ferns (Pterophyta)
Types of Plants - seeds • Cone Bearing (Gymnosperms) • Flowering (Angiosperm)
Gymnosperms vs Angiosperms Comparing Features of Seed Plants Feature Seeds Reproduction Examples Gymnosperms Angiosperms Bear their seeds on cones Can reproduce without water; male gametophytes are contained in pollen grains; fertilization occurs by pollination Conifers, cycads, ginkgoes, gnetophytes Bear their seeds within flowers Can reproduce without water; male gametophytes are contained in pollen grains; fertilization occurs by pollination Grasses, flowering trees and shrubs, wildflowers, cultivated flowers
Flower Functions • Sexual Reproduction! • Flowers are pollinated by: • Wind • Insects • Birds
FLOWER PARTS • Pistil – female part of the plant • Contains the stigma, style and ovary (surround and protect the seeds)
FLOWER PARTS • Stamen – male part of the plant • Contains the anther and filament
FLOWER PARTS • Petals – colorful, leaflike structures • Sepals – green leaflike structures at the base of the flower
Stamen Carpel Stigma Anther Style Filament Ovary Petal Ovule Sepal The structure of a flower.
Fruit – after pollination the ovary develops a wall of tissue surrounding the seed
