KingdomPlantaeSubmitted By:Flores, Elaine Gay R.Papa, April S.Rivera, Jasmine S.

Definition also called as kingdom Metaphyta contains about 300,000 different

species of plants  includes all types of eukaryotic,

multicellular, photosynthetic plants found in this biosphere.

CharacteristicsMost of the plants are eukaryotic and

chlorophyll containing organisms.Cell walls of plant cells are comprised of

cellulose.They have an ability to grow by cell

division.  In life cycle of plant cells, the

interchanges occur from the embryos and are supported by other tissues and self produce.

Characteristics Plants have both organs and organ systems. They obtain their energy from sun through

photosynthesis.  Plants reproduce both by sexual and

asexual. Plants develop a self defense mechanism to

protect them from being destroyed by animals, fungi and other plants

Organisms within Kingdom Plantae are multicellular, eukaryotic and autotrophic

They lack motility.

Classification

Based on their classification, plants are divided into the four main groups. These classifications was based onThe presence of vascular tissue.The absence of vascular tissue.The presence of seeds.The absence of seeds.

Classification

BryophytaPteridophytae AngiospermsGymnosperms

BryophytaThey are non-vascular land plantsThese plants are small, grow close to the

ground and include mosses and liverworts

The reproduction process is carried in their spores.

Depend on water for reproductionmale gametes , produced by

reproductive structures called antheridia

Example: Mosses

Pteridophytae

They are seedless vascular plantsThey are involved in

transportation of fluids.The reproduction process is

carried by spores.

Angiospermsare flowering plantsreproduction process is carried by

Angiosperm develop their seeds within an ovaryAngiosperms in the class Dicotyledoneae

grows into two seed-leaves (cotyledons).An angiosperms leaf consists of a single,

branched, and main veinThey also carry out a process called

double fertilization

Types of Angiosperms

Named for the number of seed leaves, or cotyledons.

MonocotsDicots

Monocots1 seed leafFlowering parts in multiples of

3.Parallel veinsEx. Corn and Lily

Dicots2 seed leavesFlowering parts in multiples of

4 or 5Netlike veinsEx. Bean, Rose, and Maple

Example:

Vines

Gymnosperms  are non-flowering plants with

undeveloped seedsMonocot begins with a single

seed-leaf.  The main veins of their leaves are usually parallel and unbranched. 

Monocot plays an important role in providing us with our primary sources of nutrition

Example:

Palms
