    The document discusses the classification of plants, identifying the key characteristics used to classify plants into kingdoms, divisions, and types. It covers the main plant groups including nonvascular plants like mosses and liverworts, vascular plants, spore-bearing plants like ferns and club mosses, and seed-bearing plants including both angiosperms and gymnosperms.

    CLASSIFICATION OF PLANTS

    PREPARED BY:CHRISTEN ANN AMPARO


    OBJECTIVES:
    At the end of the discussion the participants must have:
    *Identify the different plants based on key botanical characteristics.
    *Practice collecting and preserving plant specimens for accurate classification.
    *Foster appreciation for the diversity and importance of plant life in ecosystem.
    KINGDOM PLANTAE
    Most plants are autotrophs. They can make their own food
    through the process of photosynthesis by harnessing energy
    from the sun using their green coloring material called ,
    chlorophyll , absorbing water and nutrients from the soil
    through their roots , and capturing carbon dioxide from the
    air through the openings in their leaves and stems.
    PHOTOSYNTHESIS
    Chlorophyll
    NONVASCULAR
    PLANTS
    No special tissue for
    transporting food and
    water. Do not have true
    roots, stems, and
    leaves.
    MOSSES – grow in wet and shady places
    -found along riverbanks , in cracks between rocks , and on sides of trees
    -form carpets of many tiny plants
    -help in keeping soil formation and hydration
    LIVERWORTS – grow along riverbanks
    - bodies are either flat or made up
    of very short with small caps on the end
    -the caps contain reproductive
    structures
    -when structures fall on moist
    ground , they grow into new plants
    HORNWORTS –found in tropical forests
    -they look like greasy blue green
    patches
    -in some places , they cover large
    areas of soil or sides of trees
    VASCULAR PLANTS
    Have special tissues for
    transporting food and water.
    Have true roots , leaves ,
    stems , and reproductive
    organs.
    VASCULAR TISSUES
    XYLEM –carrieswater and minerals from the
    roots up to the stems and leaves

    PHLOEM – carries processed food from the


    leaves to the other parts of plant
    SPORE – BEARING PLANTS
    - produces spores from one parent
    plant
    - Spores fertilize themselves and
    develop into plants identical to
    their parent

    WHISK FERNS CLUB MOSSES

    HORSETAILS FERNS
    WHISK FERNS
    -small plants with spore – bearing branches but
    without true leaves or roots
    CLUB MOSSES
    -grow on the forest floor or branches of trees , with their spore
    cases growing at the base of their small branches covered by scale-like
    leaves
    HORSETAILS
    -grow in swampy places , with their spares
    found at the tip of their bushy stems
    FERNS
    -mostly grow in tropical places
    -can vary in size
    -spare capsules are found at the back of their leaves
    SEED – BEARING PLANTS
    (SPERMATOPHYTES)

    ANGIOSPERMS GYMNOSPERMS
    ANGIOSPERMS
    -flowering plants
    -seeds are enclosed inside an ovary usually in a fruit
    -lilies , orchids , agaves , roses , peas , sunflowers , oaks and maples
    GYMNOSPERMS
    -non-flowering or cone-bearing plants
    -seeds are unenclosed or `NAKED`
    -seeds are found on scales , leaves or as cones
    -ginkgoes , pine , spruce , fir , conifers cycads
    GINKGO TREE CONES GINKGO TREE
    SPRUCE TREE CONES SPRUCE TREE
    PINE TREE CONES PINE TREE
    CYCADS
