Types of Plants

Vascular plants, such as tracheophytes, have vascular tissue that allows for transportation of water and nutrients.
Gymnosperms, such as conifers and cycads, produce 'naked seeds' or cones.
Deciduous plants, such as oak and maple trees, have leaves that are lost during the fall.
Angiosperms, such as flowering plants, have a reproductive structure called 'flowers'.

Plant Characteristics

Bryophytes, such as mosses and liverworts, grow low to the ground and require high moisture in the soil.
Non-vascular plants, such as bryophytes and algae, lack vascular tissue.

Plant Organs and Systems

The 3 primary (non-reproductive) organs of a plant are roots, stems, and leaves.
The 2 organ systems in plants are the root system and the shoot system, which are responsible for absorption and transportation of water and nutrients, and photosynthesis and growth, respectively.

Plant Tissue

The 4 layers of plant tissue are epidermis, cortex, sclerenchyma, and parenchyma, which provide protection, storage, support, and photosynthesis respectively.

Plant Functions

Xylem tissue is responsible for transporting water and minerals from roots to leaves.
Phloem tissue is responsible for transporting sugars and nutrients produced by photosynthesis from leaves to the rest of the plant.
Meristematic tissue is responsible for plant growth and development, as it has the ability to differentiate into different cell types.
