Plantae Characteristic & Classification

Question 1

is plantae a eukaryotic or prokaryotic

Answer 1

eukaryotic

Question 2

What is their cell wall made out of

Answer 2

cellulose

Question 3

Heterotroph/Autotroph and from where do plants get their nutritions from

Answer 3

autotroph aka photosynthesis
(6CO2 + 6H20 -> C6H12O6 +6O2)
(Carbon dioxide + Water -> Glucose + Oxygen)

Question 4

is there any plants that are unicellular

Answer 4

no, all are multicellular (macrosopic)

Question 5

mention other characteristic of plantae

Answer 5

they are immobile and mostly terminal (land)

Question 6

what is the main role of plantae

Answer 6

producer and provide o2 from photosynthesis

Question 7

how are plants divided

Answer 7

non vascular and vascular

Question 8

characteristic of non vascular

Answer 8

no xylem and no phloem. they reproduce by spores

Question 9

characteristic of vascular

Answer 9

they have xylem and phloem

Question 10

mention the classifications

Answer 10

bryophyta, pteridophyta, spermatophyta, gymnospermae, angiospermae

Question 11

What does xylem and phloem do

Answer 11

Xylem: Transport water from root to leave
Phloem: Transport sucrose from leaves to all parts of plants

Question 12

mention characteristic of bryophyta

Answer 12

• non vascular: no xylem & no phloem
• no true roots/stems/leaves but have thallus for all of it (Thalophyta)
• Reproduce using spores and gametes,
• Live in moist area

Question 13

mention characteristics of pleridophyta

Answer 13

• Vascular: Has xylem & phloem
• True roots/stem/leaves
• Seedless (Reproduce with spores)
• Has fiddlehead (circinatus) on young leaves
  -Live in Cold, Dry, Moist, even salty area

Question 14

mention characteristics of Gymnospermae

Answer 14

• Vascular
• Producing seeds in reproduction
• Naked seed (Not protected by fruit)
• Reproduce using Storodilli (cone)
• Usually has a needle like leaves
• Found mostly in cold & high environment

Question 15

What are the 4 types of Gymnospermae

Answer 15

Cycadophyta
Ginkgophyta
Gnetophyta
Coniferophyta/Pinophyta

Question 16

What are the characteristics and example of Cycadophyta (Cycads)

Answer 16

• Rossete Plants
• Separate male and female plants
  Ex: Cycas Rumpii

Question 17

What are the characteristics and example of Ginkgophyta

Answer 17

• Lobed Leaves
• Separate male and female plants
  Ex: Ginkgo Biloba

Question 18

What are the characteristics and example of Gnetophyta

Answer 18

• Simple Leaves
• Male and female exist in same plant
  Ex: Gnetum Gnemon

Question 19

What are the characteristics and example of Coniferophyta/Pinophyta

Answer 19

• Needle-like Leaves
• Male and female exist in same plant
  Ex: Pinus Merkusii (Pine Tree)

Question 20

mention characteristics of Angiospermae (Flowering Plants)

Answer 20

• Vascular Plants
• Produce seed
• Seed is enclosed and protected by fruits
• Reproduce using flower
• Most successful group of plants

Question 21

What are angiospermae’s divided into

Answer 21

• Monocot (1 Seed)
• Dicot (2 Seed)

Question 22

What are the characteristics of Monocot. Cotyledon, Flower, Roots, Leaf, Pollen, Stem

Answer 22

• Cotyledon: 1
• Flower: Multiples of 3
• Roots: Fibrous Roots
• Leaf: Parallel Leaf Veins
• Pollen: Polen Grain has 1 pore or furrow
• Stem: Vascular bundles throughout stem’s around tissue

Question 23

What are the characteristics of Dicot. Cotyledon, Flower, Roots, Leaf, Pollen, Stem

Answer 23

• Cotyledon: 2
• Flower: Multiples of 4 or 5
• Roots: Taproots
• Leaf: Netlike Leaf Veins
• Pollen: Polen Grain has 3 pore or furrow
• Stem: Arranged in a ring

Question 24

Pollination in Angiospermae

Answer 24

• Birds are attracted to red flowers
• Beed can see colors that human cant
• Moth-pollinated flowers are white and bloom at night
• Many insects are attracted to odors, one species smells like rotting meat and its pollinated by flies
