Ch. 1, Lesson 2
a plant having a specialized conducting
system for water (the xylem) and food
products like sugar (the phloem);
includes ferns, gymnosperms, and
angiosperms
a group of vascular plants that
produce exposed seeds, often in
cones or hard berries, but do not
produce flowers or fruit;
includes cycads, conifers, ginkgo,
and gnetophytes
the ripened ovary of a plant;
produced by flowers; protects the

includes liverworts, hornworts, and
mosses
a usually unicellular and often
environmentally resistant dormant or
reproductive body produced by plants,
fungi, and some microorganisms which
is capable of development into a new
individual either directly or
after fusion with another spore;
the fern plant spore has very little stored
food resources compared with the actual
seeds other plants produce
vascular seed plants that
produce flowers and
enclose seeds
in an ovary (fruit)
a mass of microspores in a seed
plant, appearing
usually as a fine dust;
shed from anthers to be
transported to stigma
plants that live for
two years or seasons
a plant that lives longer
than two years
(possibly much longer)
having green leaves
or needles all year round;
many conifers are evergreen
losing leaves annually;
many broadleaf trees are
deciduous
the transfer of pollen from
anther to the stigma
in angiosperms
or
from microsporangium to
micropyle in gymnosperms
the union of a male
reproductive cell (sperm) and
a female reproductive cell (egg);
in plants, this occurs
after pollination
plants that live for only
one year or season
