Understanding the Classification of Plants - Non-flowering and Flowering Varieties

Explore the diverse world of plants through their classification into non-flowering (mosses, ferns, gymnosperms) and flowering categories. From the simplest mosses to the tall gymnosperms, learn about their characteristics, reproductive methods, and habitat preferences.

1. Classification of Plants

2. Plant Kingdom Non-flowering Plants Flowering Plants

3. Non - flowering Plants Mosses Ferns Gymnosperms Do NOT produce flowers

4. A plant can be divided into 3 parts

5. Spore-producing capsule Moss spores

6. Characteristics of Mosses Characteristics of Mosses Simplest plants No true roots, No vascular tissues (no transport) Simple stems & leaves Have rhizoids for anchorage Spores from capsules (wind-dispersal) Damp terrestrial land

8. A leaf (finely divided into small parts) underground stem root

9. spore producing organs (circinate) young leaf

10. Characteristics of Ferns Characteristics of Ferns roots, feathery leaves & underground stems have vascular tissues (transport & support) Spore-producing organ on the underside of leaves (reproduction) Damp & shady places

11. Pine tree

12. needle-shaped leaves

13. Male cones (in clusters) Female cones (scattered)

14. Characteristics of Gymnosperms Characteristics of Gymnosperms tall evergreen trees roots, woody stems needle-shaped leaves vascular tissues (transport) cones with reproductive structures naked seeds in female cones dry places

15. Flowering Plants Dicotyledons Monocotyledons roots, stems, leaves vascular tissues (transport) flowers, fruits (contain seeds)

16. Monocotyledons Monocotyledons Parallel veins

17. Characteristics of Monocotyledons one seed-leaf leaves have parallel veins herbaceous plants e.g. grass, maize

18. Dicotyledons Dicotyledons Veins in network

19. Characteristics of Dicotyledons Characteristics of Dicotyledons two seed-leaves leaves have veins in network e.g. trees, sunflower, rose

20. Plant Classification Plants Flowering Non-flowering 1 seed- leaf Monocots 2 seed- leaves Dicots Spore- bearing Naked seeds Gymnosperms No roots Mosses with roots Ferns
