ThePlant Kingdom (Group 2)

Introduction

THE PLANT KINGDOM

There are some very strange plant in the world. There are plants that trap animals, plants that bloom only once every thirty years, and plants with flowers that smell like rotting meat. You probably don’t see such unusual plants every day. But you probably do see plants every day. You encounter plants whenever you see moss on tree trunks, run across a lawn, or pick ripe tomatoes from a garden. And all plants, both the unfamiliar and the familiar, have a lot in common.  

WHAT IS PLANT?

Plants are autotrophs You can think of a typical plant as a sun-powered, food-making factory. Sunlight provides the energy for this food-making process, called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, a plant uses carbon dioxide gas and water to make food and oxygen.

Members of the plant kingdom share several characteristics. Nearly all plants are autotrophs, organisms that produce their own food. All plants are eukaryotes that contain many cells. In addition, all plant cells are surrounded by cell walls.

CLASSIFICATION OF PLANTS

A. Nonvascular Plants

Plants that lack a well-developed systems of tubes for transporting water and other materials are known as nonvascular plants.

B. Vascular Plants

Plants with true vascular tissue are called vascular plants. Vascular plants are better suited to life in dry areas than are nonvascular plants. The well-developed vascular tissue solves the problem of transport, moving materials quickly and efficiently throughout the plants body.

 

 

Task
