- > 250,000 species
angiosperm
- all flowering plants
- all flowering plants were divided into two classes: monocots and dicots, now there are more

eudicots
the new classes of the phylum anthophyta (3)
water lilies
magnoliids and relatives
star anise and relatives
___ ___ is the most “primitive” living flowering plant and belongs in a class by itself

xylem cells in angiosperms and gymnosperms that provide support and transport water
tracheids
xylem cells in most angiosperms
-A. trichopoda does not have these
vessel elements
the ___ is the reproductive structure of flowering plants
flower

- sticky to receive pollen
stigma
tube shaped structure part of the pistil that connects to the stigma and the ovary
style
part of the pistil that contains the ovules that develop into seeds
ovary
flowering plants produce ___ which are mature ovaries. They help protect the seeds.
fruits
many fruits are fleshy and have ___ such as ___, these fruits attract animals and the animals distribute the seed in the fruits
