Presentation
Most Mosses & Ferns Live in Moist Environments PLANT SPECIES ADAPTED TO LIFE ON LAND. –Scientists think that the first plants looked like green algae.
Plants The study of plants is called Botany. What is a plant? Multicellular eukaryote Produce their own food through photosynthesis Have thick cell walls.
Non-Vascular Plants. Evolution of Land Plants Land plants evolved from green algae The green algae called charophyceans are the closest relatives of land.
Plant Evolution. The Plant Kingdom Nearly all are multicelled Vast majority are photoautotrophs –Energy from sun –Carbon dioxide from air –Minerals dissolved.
Plants are multicellular eukaryotes that have cell walls made of cellulose. They develop from multicellular embryos and carry out photosynthesis using.
PLANTS!! Food, habitats, carbon dioxide taker uppers, oxygen providers What more could we ask for???
PLANTS WITHOUT SEEDS NON VASCULAR. 2 TYPES OF PLANTS NONVASCULAR: plants that DO NOT have tubes that carry water and food throughout the plant VASCULAR.
