Study Notes
Angiosperm Characteristics
- Angiosperms are flowering plants.
- They are the most diverse group of plants.
- Angiosperms produce seeds enclosed within a fruit.
Gymnosperm Example
- Conifers are a type of gymnosperm.
- Other examples include cycads, ginkgoes, and gnetophytes.
Chloroplast Function
- Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells.
- They are responsible for photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy.
Water Transport in Vascular Plants
- Xylem is the vascular tissue that transports water upwards in plants.
- Phloem is the vascular tissue that transports sugars and other nutrients throughout the plant.
Monocot Characteristics
- Monocots have a single cotyledon (seed leaf) in their seed.
- They typically have parallel leaf veins.
- Their flower parts are usually in multiples of three.
