QuestionAnswer
characteristics of Plantae kingdom kingdom of mullticellular photosynthetic autotrophs or eukaryotes that have cell walls containing cellulose. they develop from multicellular embryos and carry out photosynthesis using green pigments chlorophyll a and b.
characteristics of Plantae kingdom pt.2 the alternation of generation, meaning a diploid gametophyte generation and a haploid sporophyte generation Most plants, other than the bryophytes (simple plants, think moss) have a vascular system (zylem, phloem, roots, etc)

plants and ____ most likely moved together onto land from their aquatic protista ancestry fungi
Adaptations of land plants Protected embryo, waxy cuticle, stoma, tracheids, haploid tonic cycle,
_______ covered plant surfaces helped protect against_______ cutin (wax), dehydration
_______ and guard cells evolved to permit openings for___ _____ cutin- covered surfaces stomata, air exchange
ability to fertilize without cells using _____ swimming in water to reach opposite mating types flagella
took ___ ______ yrs for plants on land to evolve means for ____ without water one million, fertilization
in order to support increase in size plants evolved complex polymers such as _____ to strengthen cell walls; supporting heavier/ larger structure ligin
plants evolve ____ tissue to carry ____ xylem, water
______ tissue to carry _____ phloem, nutrients
roots evolved with _______ to anchor plant and absorb water/ minerals from soil mycorrhizae
very primitive plants used ____ to protect embryo achegonia
_____ final protective structure for embryos evolved; contains seeds or embryos of plant kingdom fruit
plants that evolved first were small and dependent on water for ____ and without ____ tissue fertilization, vascular
most complex plants today ______ evolved flowers and fruits to protect embryos angiosperms
different groups of plants Mosses, Ferns, Conifers, and Flowering Plants
What distinguishes kingdom plantae from all the other kingdoms, is that the cells of kingdom plantae have cell walls made of cellulose that are used to support the plant
Another characteristic belonging only to kingdom plantae is their chloroplasts; their ability to convert inorganic matter to organic matter with the use of photosynthesis
