  1. Classification of Plants

  2. Plant Kingdom Non-flowering Plants Flowering Plants

  3. .3 groups Non - flowering Plants Mosses Ferns Gymnosperms Do NOT produce flowers

  4. A plant can be divided into 3 parts

  5. Examples of Mosses

  6. Spore-producing capsule Moss spores

  7. Characteristics of Mosses .Simplest plants .No true roots, No vascular tissues (no transport) .Simple stems & leaves .Have rhizoids for anchorage .Spores from capsules (wind-dispersal) .Damp terrestrial land

  8. Fern

  9. Fern A leaf (finely divided into small parts) underground stem root

  10. spore-producing organs (circinate) young leaf

  11. Characteristics of Ferns .roots, feathery leaves & underground stems .have vascular tissues (transport & support) .Spore-producing organon the underside of leaves (reproduction) .Damp & shady places

  12. Gymnosperms Pine tree

  13. needle-shaped leaves

  14. Male cones (in clusters) Female cones (scattered)

  15. Characteristics of Gymnosperms .tall evergreen trees .roots, woody stems .needle-shaped leaves .vascular tissues (transport) .cones with reproductive structures .naked seeds in female cones .dry places

  16. Flowering Plants .2 groups Monocotyledons Dicotyledons .roots, stems, leaves .vascular tissues (transport) .flowers, fruits (contain seeds)

  17. Monocotyledons Parallel veins

  18. Characteristics of Monocotyledons .one seed-leaf • leaves have parallel veins .herbaceous plants .e.g. grass, maize

  19. Dicotyledons Veins in network

  20. Characteristics of Dicotyledons . two seed-leaves . leaves have veins in network . e.g. trees, sunflower, rose

  21. Plant Classification Plants Non-flowering Flowering 1 seed-leaf 2 seed-leaves Spore-bearing Naked seeds Monocots Dicots Gymnosperms No roots with roots Mosses Ferns
