Plant Flashcards
Nonvascular plants ( mosses, liverworts, and hornworts); must live close to water and low to ground
Bryophytes
Long thin cells that anchor a bryophyte to the ground and abs org water and nutrients from the soil
Rhizoids
Vascular tissue that carries water from the roots to the rest of the plant
Xylem
Vascular tissue that carried nutrients and carbs produced by photosynthesis
Phloem
Plants with vascular tissue at do not use seeds in reproduction ex- club mosses, horsetails, and ferns
Seedless vascular plants
Creeping it underground stems seen in ferns
Rhizomes
Plants with vascular tissue that produce seeds; divided into two groups
Seed plants
Plants who’s see a are found on cones
Gymnosperms
Multicellular eukaryotes that have cell walls of cellulose
Plants
Flowering plants
Angiosperms
Angiosperm having one sees leaf, parallel veins, three part symmetry, fibrous roots and scattered vascular tissue
Monocot
Angiosperm having two seed leaves, branching veins, four to five part symmetry, taproots and vascular tissue arranged In a ring
Dicot
Plant that completes its life cycle in one growing season
Annual
Plant that takes two growing seasons to complete its life cycle
Biennial
Flowering plant that lives several years
Perennial
