Kingdom Plantae

•Nonvascular Plants: No water-conducting cells (xylem).1. Division Bryophyta (mosses and liverworts).

•Vascular plants: Xylem tissue, true roots, stems & leaves.

Pteridophytes: Spores but no seeds

2. Division Psilophyta (Psilotum or whisk fern.3. Division Lycophyta (club mosses).4. Division Sphenophyta (horsetails).5. Division Pterophyta (ferns).

Spermatophytes: Seed Plants

•Gymnosperms--Naked Seeds6. Division Cycadophyta (cycads).7. Division Ginkgophyta (maidenhair tree).8. Division Gnetophyta (mormon tea & Welwitschia).9. Division Coniferophyta (conifers).

•Angiosperms--Seeds Enclosed In A Fruit10. Division Anthophyta (flowering plants)

Division Bryophyta

• lack complex vascular tissue

• No true roots, stem and leaf

• Rhizoids• sperms are flagellated• Sporophyte is

dependent on the gametophyte

Seedless Vascular plants

• include ferns, whisk ferns, club mosses, and horsetails

• do not produce seeds• gametophyte and

sporophyte are independent
