Presentation Transcript

  1. Plants

  2. What Is a Vascular Plant? • Have a vascular tissue = Xylem and Phloem • Produce Seeds

  3. Types of Vascular Tissue • Has specialized organs • Xylem = WATER flows UPWARD from the root • Pholem = NUTRIENTS/FOOD (such as sugar) flows DOWNWARD from the leaves • Stems = support and store essential molecules • Roots = absorbs water and anchors the plant • Leaves = do photosynthesis and exchange gases into and out of plant • Guard Cells = surround the stomata (opening in the cell), which regulates the gases and water vapor that enters and exits the cell.

  5. Types of Vascular Plants

  6. Types of Vascular Plants • What makes Vascular Plants different? • The WAY THE PLATNS reproduce makes the difference!!!

  7. Seedless Vascular Plants • Examples: Ferns, horsetails, many water plants • MUST live in water, because they have swimming sperm that fertilize eggs

  8. Gymnosperms • Reproduce with seeds that are exposed “Naked Seeds” (such as cones) • Have CONES (pine cones) • Makes male and female cones • Usually keeps leaves all year long • Examples: Evergreen trees, pine trees, gingko trees REMEMBER: “GYM likes CONES”

  9. Angiosperms • Reproduce with seeds that are covered “Enclosed Seeds” • These plants have fruits that protect the seed and allow it to be dispersed • Have FLOWERS!! • Male reproductive part: Stamen • Female reproductive part: Pistil • Ovary protects the seed as they develop, and then ripens as a FRUIT! • Angiosperms and their pollinators (bees, butterflies, etc) have co-evolved! REMEMBER: “Angi likes Flowers”

  10. Parts of a flower

  11. STERN GRR of VASCULAR Plants • Synthesis: • Can do photosynthesis (makes glucose = food) • Can do protein synthesis and build organic molecules • Transport: • Uses diffusion and osmosis to regulate levels of water, gases, and molecules • Uses XYLEM and PHLOEM to move materials throughout the plant

  12. Excretion: • Gets rid of waste through diffusion and osmosis • Uses transpiration to get rid of excess water (through the leaves) • Respiration: • Takes in CO2 and O2 through diffusion • Uses CO2 for photosynthesis and O2 for respiration • Nutrition: • Are autotrophic = makes their own food

  13. Growth: • Starts off life as a seed, and grows into an adult plant using mitosis • Reproduction: • Reproduce sexually and asexually. Most use pollen and eggs to produce seeds. Others use vegetative propagation to make asexual copies of themselves • Vegetative propagation = cloning • Regulation: • Communicate using HORMONES, specifically AUXIN, the growth hormone

  14. NON – Vascular Plants

  15. What Is a Non-Vascular Plant? • Plants that do not have a vascular system (NO XYLEM & PHLOEM,) leaves, roots, or stems. • They do NOT produce SEEDS! • Examples: Mosses, liverworts, and hornworts

  16. Life Processes of Non-Vascular Plants… • Synthesis: • Can do photosynthesis (makes glucose) • Also does protein synthesis and builds organic molecules • Transport: • Uses diffusion and osmosis to regulate levels of water, gases, and molecules • Excretion: • Gets rid of waste using diffusion and osmosis

  17. Respiration: • Takes in CO2 and O2 through diffusion (Uses CO2 for photosynthesis and O2 for respiration) • Nutrition: • Autotrophic = make their own food • Growth: • Starts off as SPORES and grows into an adult plant using mitosis

  18. Reproduction: • Reproduce sexually and asexually. The life cycles alter between haploid and diploid, and they uses swimming sperm to reproduce • Regulation: • Communication using hormones, specifically auxin, the growth hormone
