Non- vascular plants   Plants that have no true vascular tissue  
🗑
Rhizoid   Thin root like structure that anchor to the ground and transport water.  
🗑
Vascular plant   Plants with specialized vascular tissue that includes xylem and phloem  
🗑
Phloem   The vascular tissue through which food moves in some plants.  
🗑
Xylem   The vascular tissue through which water and minerals move in some plants.  
🗑
Front   The leaf of a fern plant  
🗑
Pollen   Tiny structure (male gametophyte) produced by seed plants that contain the cell that later becomes a sperm cell.  
🗑
Seed   The plant structure that contains a young plant and a food supply inside a protective covering.  
🗑
Gymnosperm   A plant that produces seeds directly on the scales of cones—not enclosed by a protective fruit.  
🗑
Angiosperm   A flowering plant that produces seeds enclosed in a protective fruit.  
🗑
Cotyledon   A leaf produced by an embryo of a seed plant; sometimes stores food.  
🗑
Monocot   An angiosperm that has only one seed leaf.  
🗑
Dicot   An angiosperm that has two seed leaves.  
🗑
What are the two types of vascular tissue and what do they do?   The two types of vascular tissue are xylem and phloem. Xylem is responsible for trans[porting water, and phloem is responsible for transporting sugars.  
🗑
What are the three groups of seedless, vascular plants?   1. Lycophytes 2. Pterophytes 3. Psilophytes  
🗑
What are the 2 characteristics of seed plants?   The presence of vascular tissue and the production of seeds for reproduction  
🗑
What are the four main groups of plants?   1. Bryophytes 2. Pteridophytes 3. Gymnosperms 4. Angiosperms  
🗑
What are the 3 characteristics of non vascular plants?   1. Lack of vascular system 2. Reliance on moist environments 3. Dominance by the gametrophyte generation in their life cycle  
🗑
Where do non-vascular plants typically live and what is their size?   They live in damp shady environments, their size is few inches tall rarely exiting 10 centimeters (4 inches) in height  
🗑
How do non-vascular plants get nutrients.?   They get nutrients from the soil.  
🗑
What are the three groups of non-vascular plants?   1. Mosses 2. Liverworts 3. Hornworts  
🗑
What are the 2 functions of vascular tissues?   Transport and support  
🗑
What are the 2 characteristics of seedless, vascular plants?   The presence of the vascular tissue and the reproduction through spores.  
🗑
What are the 2 characteristics of seed plants?   Gymnosperm and Angiosperm  
🗑
How do seed plants reproduce?   Pollination, Fertilization, Dispersal  
🗑
What are the two groups of seed plants?   Angiosperms and gymnosperms  
🗑
What are two examples of gymnosperm?   Gnetophytes Cycads  
🗑
What are the two ways that Angiosperms are different from Gymnosperms?   Angiosperms have seeds that are enclosed within an ovary (usually a fruit), while gymnosperms have unenclosed or “naked” seeds on the surface of scales or leaves. Angiosperms have flowers and fruits, while gymnosperms do not.  
🗑
What are the two major groups of angiosperms? Give an example of each.   Dicots Monocots  
🗑
