| Sporopollen | Protective polymer surrounding the early descendant of land plants spores |
| Nucleariids | amoebas which are a close relative of fungi |
| Chitin | a structural polysaccharide that forms part of the cuticle in arthropods and fungi |
| Mycelium | Interwoven mass of branched hyphae |
| Mycorrhizae | plant-fungal symbiosis where fungal hyphae transfer nutrients to plant |
| Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi | Extended hyphae through the root cell wall and into tubes formed by invagination of the root cell membrane |
| Ectomycorrhizal mycorrhizal fungi | Form sheaths of hyphae over the root and also grow into the extracellular spaces of the root cortex |
| Apical meristems | Apical meristems give rise to the primary plant body and are responsible for the extension of the roots and shoots. |
| Sporangia | a sac or capsule that is made of special cells. It produces and encloses asexual spores |
| Stomata | pores in the epidermis of the leaf or stem of a plant which allows movement of gases in and out of the intercellular spaces. |
| Xylem | the vascular tissue in plants that conducts water and dissolved nutrients upward from the root |
| Phloem | the vascular tissue in plants that conducts sugars and other metabolic products downward from the leaves. |
| Lignin | a complex organic polymer deposited in the cell walls of many plants, making them rigid and woody. |
