  1. Introduction to Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Plantae - complex, multi-cellular, autotrophic, eukaryotic organisms that are usually green and use photosynthesis to make sugar BrainPop

  2. PLANT CHARACTERISTICS 1. Multicellular Organisms 2. Cells • Eukaryotic – Has a Nucleus - Surrounded by a Cell Wall 3. Producers (Autotrophic) • Make their own food through Photosynthesis

  3. Origin of Plants • Similarities between modern green algae and plants suggest that both may have originated from an ancient species of green algae.

  4. PhotosynthesisBrainPop - Photosynthesis • Photosynthesis - the process by which a plant takes in carbon dioxide and water and in the presence of sunlight makes sugar and oxygen

  5. Photosynthesis Carbon Dioxide + Water + Sunlight  Sugars + Oxygen • Series of chemical reactions that use energy from the Sun to produce Sugars • Occurs in the Chloroplast -Chlorophyll - the green pigment IN chloroplasts where photosynthesis occurs • Photosynthesis is important because this is how plants make their food and get their energy

  6. Plants also release energy through cellular respiration (mitochondria)

  7. Plant Systems 1. Root System - Roots -Brings in water and nutrients 2. Shoot System – Stems and Leaves -Makes energy-rich materials -Moves material up and down through the plant *The Root and Shoot Systems are Organ Systems*

  8. Nonvascular Plants • Have no “pipes” to transport water and nutrients. • They depend on diffusion and osmosis to move materials from one part of the plant to another. • Ex. Mosses and liverworts

  9. Vascular Plants • Have tissues that deliver needed materials throughout a plant, much as pipes deliver water to faucets in your home. • Two groups • Plants that produce seeds • Plants that do not produce seeds • ferns, horsetails, and club mosses

  10. Gymnosperms Non-flowering plants Angiosperms Flowering plants Plants that produce seeds - 2 GroupsBrainPop - Seed PlantsBrainPop - Seedless Plants

  11. Reproduction Plants reproduce both asexually and sexually BrainPop - Pollination

  12. Asexual Reproduction In asexual reproduction, there is only one parent and all offspring are identical to the parent

  13. Sexual Reproduction • In sexual reproduction, there are two parents and the offspring inherit traits from each parent • Pollen carries the sperm in sexual reproduction

  14. Plant life begins with a CELL:

  15. A group of similar cells working together make a TISSUE:

  16. A combination of two or more tissues that work together make an:ORGAN

  17. A group of organs working together make an: ORGAN SYSTEM

  18. Organ systems working together to create something that can live on its own is an: ORGANISM

  19. Plants role in an Ecosystem Plants are producers – they are the first biotic factor in all land-based food chains sun plant  worm  turtle  eagle (abiotic) (biotic) (biotic) (biotic) (biotic) BrainPop

  20. Review Questions True/False: Members of the Kingdom Plantae include: a. Ferns b. Flowers c. Trees d. Vegetables

  21. In which kingdom(s) will you find complex autotrophic organisms? • Kingdom Bacteria • Kingdom Protista • Kingdom Plantae • Kingdom Animalia

  22. What are the two products produced by plants during photosynthesis? • sugar and carbon dioxide • sugar and oxygen • water and carbon dioxide • water and oxygen

  23. Which structure is found in a plant cell but not in an animal cell? a. nucleus b. cell membrane c. cell wall d. chromosomes

  24. Which statement about photosynthesis and respiration is true? • respiration stores energy and photosynthesis releases energy • photosynthesis and respiration are the same process • photosynthesis and respiration have nothing to do with energy • photosynthesis stores energy and respiration releases energy

  25. What two organelles in a plant cell are most closely related to the processes of photosynthesis and respiration? • mitochondria and chloroplast • lysosome and chloroplast • mitochondria and vacuole • ribosome and lysosome

  26. Complex organisms, like plants, are organized in the following way: cells tissues organs organ systems organisms

  27. Specialized cells that are similar in structure and function are usually joined together to form: • Organs • Tissues • organ systems • organisms
