Question 19

the idea of plant families is that plants that have something in common can be grouped together

Answer 19

spot characteristics

Question 20

1. It can help identify a new plant. If your unknown plant has the characteristics of a particular Family, then you can narrow the search to find its identity.
2. It can give you an idea of what the plant looks like. Almost anything in the Asteraceae Family will look like a Daisy. Most members of the Campanulaceae Family have blue flowers in a bell or star shape.

Answer 20

3. If you know which Plant Family a plant belongs to, it might help you to find the seeds.

For instance, members of the Cabbage family (Brassicaceae) have a seedpod that has a thin papery membrane between the two halves, members of the Nettle Family (Lamiaceae) don’t have a seed pod; they have four seeds on a pad at the bottom of the open calyx, and members of the Fabaceae Family all have their seeds in legumes (pods like pea or bean pods).

Question 21

mostly herbs, leaves are alternate, the inflorescence is capitulum

Answer 21

Family Asteraceae (Aster or Daisy Family)

1. Lactuca sativa (lettuce)
2. Helianthus annuus (sunflower)
3. Smallanthus sonchifolius (yacon)

LHS

Question 22

habit could be herbs, shrubs, vines, or trees, leaves are petiolate

alternate, fruits are legumes or sometimes lomentum

Answer 22

Family Fabaceae (Bean or Legume Family)

1. Tamarindus indica (tamarind)
2. Pisum sativum (pea)
3. Arachis hypogaea (peanut)
