General Characteristics of Plants All plants are:
Eukaryotic Autotrophic Multicellular Cell Walls with cellulose Chloroplasts w/ chlorophyll
a, b, and carotenoids May have waxy cuticle to
prevent water loss. Stomata allow gas
exchange. Plants probably evolved
from green algae (charophytes) Chloroplast similarity Biochemical similarities Cell Wall similarities

Charophytes v. Plants
No alternation of generations
No cuticle needed Jacketed gametes No protection of
embryos
Alternation of generations
Cuticle (prevents water loss/dessication)
Jacketed gametes (protects from dessication)
Protected embryo
(protects from dessication)

Classifying Plants Plants can be divided into 2 major categories based
on their characteristics: Nonvascular Plants
Do NOT have specialized tissues to transport water and nutrients
Instead, these plants transport water from cell-to-cell by osmosis
Vascular Plants Have specialized tissues to transport water and nutrients in
plants Xylem – carries water upward from roots Phloem – carries nutrients and carbohydrates produced by photosynthesis
![Page 7: Plant Diversity. General Characteristics of Plants All plants are: Eukaryotic Autotrophic Multicellular Cell Walls with cellulose Chloroplasts w/ chlorophyll.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020200/5697bfc81a28abf838ca89d1/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Nonvascular Plants (Bryophytes)
Again, these plants do not have specialized tissues to transport water and nutrients and instead rely on osmosis Thus, these plants must be small Why?
Major types of bryophytes (nonvascular plants): Mosses Liverworts Hornworts
![Page 8: Plant Diversity. General Characteristics of Plants All plants are: Eukaryotic Autotrophic Multicellular Cell Walls with cellulose Chloroplasts w/ chlorophyll.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020200/5697bfc81a28abf838ca89d1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Nonvascular Plants/ Bryophytes
Mosses Have rhizoids that anchor
them to the ground (instead of roots)
Depend on water for fertilization The sperm must swim to the
egg Therefore, nonvascular
plants must live in MOIST environments
Gametophyte is the dominant phase of the life cycle
![Page 9: Plant Diversity. General Characteristics of Plants All plants are: Eukaryotic Autotrophic Multicellular Cell Walls with cellulose Chloroplasts w/ chlorophyll.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020200/5697bfc81a28abf838ca89d1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Vascular Plants/Tracheophytes
Reminder: Vascular plants have specialized tissues to
transport water and nutrients in plants Xylem & phloem
Vascular plants (tracheophytes) can be divided into 2 categories: Seedless vascular plants Seed (vascular) plants

Seedless Vascular Plants
Have true roots, leaves, and stems
Consist of ferns, club mosses, and horsetails
![Page 12: Plant Diversity. General Characteristics of Plants All plants are: Eukaryotic Autotrophic Multicellular Cell Walls with cellulose Chloroplasts w/ chlorophyll.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020200/5697bfc81a28abf838ca89d1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Seedless Vascular Plants
Ferns – A Close Up Diploid sporophyte is the
dominant stage Have rhizomes, which are
underground stems Fronds: large “leaves”
where spores develop Develop spores in
sporangia on underside of fronds
Reproduce using spores A sorus (plural: sori) is a
cluster of sporangia

Seed (Vascular) Plants Have true roots, leaves, and
stems Have the ability to form
seeds, which are used for reproduction
Seed plants are the most dominant group of photosynthetic organisms on land
There are 2 types of seed (vascular) plants: 1. gymnosperms 2. angiosperms
![Page 15: Plant Diversity. General Characteristics of Plants All plants are: Eukaryotic Autotrophic Multicellular Cell Walls with cellulose Chloroplasts w/ chlorophyll.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020200/5697bfc81a28abf838ca89d1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Seed (Vascular) Plants Gymnosperms = “cone bearers”
“naked seeds” – not enclosed in ovaries
Bear seeds directly on the surfaces of cones Cones = sporophyte
structures that produce gametophytes (seeds)
Coniferous trees are the major example Pines, junipers, spruces,
etc.

Seed (Vascular) Plants Angiosperms = flowering plants
Seeds are enclosed by an ovary Flowers are reproductive organs
Evolutionary advantage attract pollinators
Flowering plants contain ovaries Ovaries surround and protect
seeds Ovary develops into a fruit after
pollination & helps with seed dispersal when eaten
Examples: Maple trees, tulips, grass
