Charophytes | A group of fresh water green algae |
Chara are commonly known as ------ because they are encrusted with calcium carbonate deposit | Stonewort |

Chara | The body consists of a single file of very long cells anchored in mud by thin filaments |
Microphylls | Plants with vascular tissue |
Plants that have roots, stems and leaves areââ | Vascular plants |
Megaphylls are | Ferns |
A seed contains? | An embryo and a protective coat |
What is the correct name for a flowering plant. (Covered seeds) | Angiosperms |

First land plants to have vascular tissue | Lycophytes |
Ferns have ------ called | Megaphylls ( large leaves with branched veins) |
What are fonds? | Ferns megaphylls |
What is a pollen grain? | Male gametophyte and produces sperm |
The female gametophyte which contains the egg is called the----? | Ovule |
------ occurs when the pollen lands on the female reproductive structure? | Pollination |
