Volcano is located in southwestern Washington state In 1980 it erupted, blowing 500 million metric tons of rock and ash outward Ash and lava devastated about 40,500 acres of what had been forest Mount Saint Helens Eruption
Plants moved into the empty habitat almost immediately Fireweed and blackberry were early colonists In less than ten years, willow and alders were on the scene Recovery
The angiosperms are seed-bearing vascular plants In terms of distribution and diversity, they are the most successful plants on Earth The structure and function of this plant group help explain its success Success of the Angiosperms
Shoots • Produce food by photosynthesis • Carry out reproductive functions • Roots • Anchor the plant • Penetrate the soil and absorb water and dissolved minerals • Store food Shoots and Roots
