Understanding Plant Evolution Through Concept Mapping

A concept map is a visual tool for organizing information graphically, illustrating relationships between concepts. This guide focuses on plant evolution, detailing the hierarchy from Charophytes (green algae) through Bryophytes (non-vascular land plants) and Pteridophytes (vascular, non-flowering plants), to Gymnosperms (seed-producing plants) and Angiosperms (flowering plants). Each group includes examples like mosses, ferns, and fruit trees, aiding in the comprehension of plant taxonomy and evolution.

  2. What is it? • A concept map is a visual way to organize information graphically. • Lines are drawn from one concept to another, these lines represent a relationship between the concepts.

  3. Why use them? • Concept maps like other visual graphic organizers aid in clarification of a topic or text.

  4. Plant Terms in the Evolution of Plants Concept Map • Charophytes – Green Algae • Bryophytes – ‘Land Plants’ that do not have a vascular system • Pteridophytes– Vascular system plants that do not flower or produce seeds. • Gymnosperms – Plants with a vascular system that produces seeds not coated with an ovary • Angiosperms – Flowering plants that produce seeds covered by an ovary

  5. Examples of Plants • Charophytes – Green Algae • Bryophytes – • Mosses, Liverwarts, and Hornwarts • Pteridophytes – • Ferns, Club Mosses, Spike Mosses Horsetails • Gymnosperms – • Ginkgophytes, Conifers, Gnetopsids, Cycads • Angiosperms – • Fruit Trees and shrubs
