Overview: The Greening of Earth
•
Imagine all land without life.
Completely barren.
Overview: The Greening of Earth
•
Land surface WAS lifeless for >3 billion years!
•
Now there’re about 290,000 plant species on
land. Seriously. Wow.
•
Plants supply oxygen and are the ultimate
source of most food eaten by land animals
Land plants evolved from green algae
•
Green algae called charophytes are the closest
relatives of land plants
Green Algae
Mosses
Ferns
Conifers
(Gymnosperms)
Flowering
Plants
(Angiosperms)
*Some biologists think the plant kingdom should be expanded to include some or all green algae!
What do plants need to survive?
 Water
 Carbon
Dioxide
 Sunlight
 Nutrients. . .
 Not
much!
The Move to Land. . .
•
Benefits of moving to land:
•
•
•
•
•
unfiltered sun
more CO2
nutrient-rich soil (yes!)
few herbivores or pathogens
Challenges:
•
•
scarcity of water
lack of structural support
Plant Traits Enabling the Move to Land
•
•
•
Roots – suck up water and minerals in soil, anchor
Leaves – produce energy/sugar through photosynthesis
Vascular tissue
•
Xylem – pumps water & minerals
from roots to rest of plant
•
•
Phloem – pumps sugar/food/energy
from leaves to rest of plant
Cuticle
•
•
Water and gas-tight; reduces water loss
Stomata – pores in leaf cuticle; open to allow gas flow
and close to reduces water loss

Universal Plant Trait #1:
Alternation of Generations
•
Reproductive cycle: alternation of
generations.
•
Sporophytes (2n) produce spores (n).
Spores grow into gametophytes (n).
Gametophytes make gametes (n), which
fuse to become a fertilized zygote (2n).
Zygotes grow into sporophytes.

Universal Plant Traits #2 and #3:
2) Sporophytes use sporangia to make
spores.
3) Gametophytes use gametangia to make
gametes.
•
•
archegonia are female gametangia
• Remember: archeEGGonia produce EGGS!
antheridia are male gametangia
• site of sperm production and release

•
Cells from apical meristems can become
almost ANY type of plant tissue! (exciting)

From nonvascular to vascular. . .
•
NONVASCULAR PLANTS owned Earth for 100
million years!
•
BUT they needed moist environments:
•
•
•
No vascular system to take water up from soil!
Sperm have to SWIM to egg
So later, VASCULAR PLANTS took over!
•
Vascular tissue pumped water up from soil AND allowed
them to grow TALL!
We just did:
Nonvascular plants (mosses)
Seedless vascular plants (ferns)

Angiosperms

Most plants have vascular tissue; they’re vascular plants
Mosses have no vascular tissue; they’re nonvascular

Vascular tissues
True roots and leaves
Can grow TALL!
•
So. . .they can live farther from water!

In vascular plants,

You should now be able to:
Tell whether the gametophyte generation or the
sporophyte generation is dominant in each of the
following major groups of plants:

2.
3.
In non-vascular plants?
In seedless vascular plants?
In seed plants?

Plants
Most plants have vascular tissue; they’re vascular plants
Mosses have no vascular tissue; they’re nonvascular

And finally, seed plants!
•
A seed is an embryo and nutrients
surrounded by a protective coat
•
Seed plants form a clade and can be divided
into further clades:
–
–
Gymnosperms, the “naked seed” plants, including
the conifers
Angiosperms, the flowering plants
Parts of a Seed
Cotyledon – “seed leaf”
Purpose: reproduction - protects embryo, provides nutrients,
may aid in dispersal
Gymnosperms (mostly conifers)

Basics: have vascular tissue, seeds,
dominant sporophytes

Gymnosperm - means “naked seed”
Conifer - cone-bearing trees: pine, fir, spruce
Cone - scaly structure produced by some
seed plants; support either male or female
reproductive structures; site of seedproduction


WAY most common
Produce flowers
Seeds are enclosed in fruits
Either monocots or dicots (1 seed leaf or 2)
May be annuals, biennials, or perennials



Annuals – only live one year, seeds survive winter
Biennials – complex 2-year life cycle
Perennials – “hibernate” through winter, come
back year after year
