Q

Groups in kingdom plantae

A

Bryophytes- non vascular (mosses) simplest land plants, spores, low, wet places
Seedless vascular plants- spores (ferns) vascular tissue allows to grow tall
Gymnosperms seed producing vascular- seeds not covered by ovary cedar
Angiosperms (flowering plants) - seeds protected by ovary, 90% plants this type

Characteristics and type for archaea

A
Prokaryotic 
Membrane and cell walls have unique chemical makeup 
Asexual 
Most are extremely small 
Colonize in extreme environments 
Live in digestive tracts of animals
20

Characteristics and type of eubacteria

A

Prokaryotic
Cell walls contain unique compound
Asexual
Can be heterotrophic or photosynthetic

21
Q

What is mycelium and fruiting body in fungi kingdom

A

Mycelium- interwoven mat (roots) that functions as feeding structure
Fruiting body- grows out and above ground, used for reproduction
