Study Notes
Plant Groups
- Two main groups of plants: vascular and nonvascular.
Vascular Plants
- Tubes are located in the roots, stems, and leaves.
- These tubes transport water and nutrients throughout the plant.
- Leaves are the part of vascular plants responsible for carrying water and food.
Nonvascular Plants
- Lack tubes for transporting water and nutrients.
- Require damp environments to thrive.
Impact of Damage
- Crushing or breaking the main stem can be fatal for a plant, as it disrupts the transport of water and nutrients.
Examples of Plants
- An example of a nonvascular plant is moss.
- Ferns, flowers, and conifers are examples of vascular plants.
Monerans vs. Protists
- Monerans differ from protists in that they do not contain a nucleus.
- Bacteria are a type of moneran.
Classification Systems
- Linnaeus developed a classification system for living organisms.
- Other classification systems include clothing sizes (Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large) and types of computer software based on their usage.
