Identifying Plants
• Physical characteristics are used to identify plants which include…. • Life Cycle • Form • Foliage Retention • Plant Parts • Use & Location

Life Cycle
• Annuals • Plants that complete their life cycle in
one year. • Biennials
• Plants that complete their life cycle in two years.
• Perennials • Plants that live more than two years.

Introduction
• Taxonomy is the science of classifying and identifying plants.
• Scientific names are necessary because the same common name is used for different plants in different areas of the world.
• Latin is the language used for scientific classification.
![Page 36: Unit 7 - Plant Taxonomy - South Sevier High School - · PDF fileKingdom Phylum/Division Class Order Suborder Family Genus Species . Plant Kingdom Flowering Plants Non-flowering Plants](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020100/5aa6dd747f8b9ab8228b6f6d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Karl von Linne (1707-1778)
• Swedish botanist • Developed binomial
classification scheme for plants.
• Uses two Latin words to indicate the genus and the species.
• Changed his name to the Latin name of Carolus Linnaeus.

Plant Kingdom Flowering Plants Non-flowering Plants](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022020100/5aa6dd747f8b9ab8228b6f6d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Scientific Names
• The first word is the genus and the second word is the specific epithet.
• If there are additional words, they indicate the variety or cultivar.
• Some scientific names bear the name of the person who first named the plant.

Genus
• Plants in the same genus have similar characteristics.
• Examples: • Quercus – Oaks • Acer – Maples • Pinus – Pines • Ilex – Hollies • Cornus – Dogwoods • Ficus – Figs

Scientific Classification
• The broadest category of scientific classification is the Kingdom. • Either Plant or Animal
• The broadest category of the plant kingdom is Division or Phylum.

1. Most common gymnosperms are Conifers
2. Conifers have leaves called needles or scales have a reduced surface area and thick waxy coat on the needle to reduce water loss and prevents freezing.

Conifer Reproduction
1. Male cones produce pollen and the female cone produces eggs and seeds.
2. Pollen is inefficiently transferred by the wind.
3. Once mature, the scales on the female cone dry out and open scattering the seeds by the wind.

Angiosperms
• Flowering plants - Flower will develop into fruit that is used for seed dispersal via wind, water, or animal.
• Pollination can be by wind, bird, bat, insect. • Most advanced (recent) • Gametophyte is reduced and within the flower. • Most diverse: grasses to trees • Divided into Monocots and Dicots
