Plant Kingdom What is a Plant? • A plant is a multicellular autotroph. • Plant cells are eukaryotic. • Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts. • Plants make their own food in the process of photosynthesis. Classifying Plants • Non vascular – low growing because they have no support or way to transport materials • Vascular – can grow tall because they have Vascular tissue which • Transports water and food throughout a plant’s body • Gives strength and stability Adaptations for living on land • Plants get water and nutrients from the soil • Plants lose water through transpiration • Plants have a cuticle to keep them from drying out. • Some plants use a system of tubelike structures called Vascular Tissue to move materials. • Vascular tissue also supports some plants Reproduction • Sexual Reproduction – Seed plants use seeds and pollen – Seedless plants use spores • Asexual Reproduction – Runners – Tubers Gymnosperms • A seed plant that produces naked seeds because the seeds are NOT enclosed in a fruit • Reproduce with pollen and seeds • Have needle-like or scale-like leaves • Deep-growing root systems Angiosperm • Flowering plants • They produce flowers and seeds enclosed by a protective fruit
