6 Vascular Plants- plants that have tube-like cells in their roots, stems, & leaves that carry H 2 O and nutrients Vascular comes from the Latin word “vasculum” which means “vessel” Lose their leaves like a pet sheds

7 Vascular Plants: 2 Types of Tubes tube-like cells that carry water & dissolved minerals from the roots to leaves tube-likecells that carry food, from leaves (Photosynthesis), to all parts of the plant tube-like cells that carry food, from leaves (Photosynthesis), to all parts of the plant  each one has a specific function (job) a) xylem b) phloem  vascular plants have 2 different types of tube-like structures inside them  think of tiny pipes...like a plumbing system Xylem - Phloem-

8 Vascular Plants (Seedless) Ferns-usually grow in moist shady areas they have adapted to grow in other environments: stem stores the food & water - aquatic (water) - dry climates - tropical regions water horn fern tropical fern typical fern

9 Vascular Plants: Seedless (ferns) Fern Leaf divided into tiny leaflets that look “feathery” loses leaves at the end of each growing season ferns are classified by their leaves reproduce by spores formed on the underside of the leaf Fern Reproduction the cases that hold the spores look like brown and orange spots

Vascular Seed Plants Gymnosperms Nonflowering Examples Conifers, Pines, Cycads Needle-like leaves Most are evergreen Soft wood. Reproductive structure is a cone or cone- like structure.

11 Vascular Plants: Seed Plants (conifers) Evergreens- type of conifer (cone-bearing) that keeps its leaves all year long lose leaves but not all at same time example: pine, spruce, fir and cypress trees

12 Vascular Plants: Seed Plants (conifers) Conifer- 2 main parts : embryo- An organism that contains a new young plant and stored food in its earliest stage of birth seed- A plant embryo that contains a new young plant and stored food surrounded by a protective coat a type of seed plant that produces its seeds inside a cone

Vascular Seed Plants Angiosperms Flowering plants Flower is used for pollination Seeds found in fruit Examples: Apple Tree, Rose, Oak, Maple, Corn, and Grass

Angiosperms Broad leaf plants Most are deciduous (leaves fall off) Hardwood
