1 Types of Plants Vascular Plants Nonvascular Plants Seedless Plants Nonflowering seed plants Flowering seed plants

2 Does not have specialized tissue to move water & nutrients Small plants, depend on diffusion hornwort liverwort moss

3 Don’t have true stems, roots, or leaves –Do have structures that carry out activities Mosses –“mat” of tiny green plants –Rhizoid root-like structure that holds nonvascular plants in place Helps plant get water and nutrients

4

5 Liverworts & Hornworts –Similar to life cycle of mosses –Liverworts Gametophytes are leafy & moss-like OR broad and flattened –Hornworts Gametophytes are broad and flattened

6 First plants to live in new environment Decompose to form thin soil layer for other plants Provide soil stability (reduce erosion) Food chain Material for nesting Dried and burned Potting soils

7 Similarities in certain species suggest a common ancestor (cell wall, chlorophyll) Modern green algaeFern

8 Has tissue to deliver water & nutrients around plant Similar to circulatory system in humans Plants can be any size

9 Fern Horsetail Club Moss

10 Ferns –Rhizome-underground stem from which new leaves and roots grow
