| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Non-vascular plant | Non-vascular plants are low growing cell walls, and do not have roots for absorbing water from the ground. |
| Rhizoid | Structures that look like tiny leaves, drop of a small stomach structure. Finn, look like structures, called rhizoid, anchor the moss and absorb water and nutrients. |
| Vascular plant | Vascular plants are planted a tree or vascular tissue. Vascular plants can grow tall because they’re vascular tissue provides an effective way of transporting materials through the plant. |
| Phloem | Phloem is a vascular tissue through which food moves |
| Xylem | Water and minerals travel in the vascular tissue called xylem. |
| pollen | Sea plants do not need water for sperm to swim to the eggs instead, see plants produce pollen tiny structures that contain the cells that would later become sperm cells. |
| Gymnosperm | A gymnosperm is a seed plant that produces naked seeds. |
| Angiosperm | Angiosperms, or flowering plants share two important characteristics. First, they produce flowers. Second, in contrast to gymnosperms, which produce uncovered seeds, angiosperms produce seeds that are enclosed in fruits. |
| pigment | In biology, a pigment is a colored substance produced by living organisms that gives color to tissues and plays key roles in biological functions. |
| Know the info in "how are plants classified" | Plants are classified based on shared characteristics such as structure, reproduction, and evolutionary relationships. The main categories include vascular vs. non-vascular, seed-bearing vs. non-seed-bearing, and flowering vs. non-flowering plants. . |
| describe the different between phloem and xylem. | Phloem and xylem are two types of vascular tissues in plants, each with distinct roles: xylem transports water and minerals upward, while phloem distributes food and nutrients throughout the plant. |
