Plant Groups
1. Bryophytes-Mosses (seedless, nonvascular)
2. Seedless vascular plants-Ferns
3. Gymnosperms-Evergreens
4. Angiosperms-Flowering plants

Bryophytes
Evolution of specialized
cells / tissue
Green algae
Evolution of cuticle
Bryophytes
 think moss
Bryophytes
 Small
 Found only in damp, moist areas on land
 1) Leaves must touch water for photosynthesis
 2) Sperm swims through water to reach egg
in gametophyte
Bryophytes
sporophyte
gametophyte
Alternation of generations

Evolution of
vascular tissue
Green algae
Evolution of specialized
cells / tissue
Evolution of cuticle
Vascular tissue
 Set of tubes that transport materials
around plant
 Allows plants to grow taller
 Water travels up through xylem
 Sugar travels throughout in phloem
Seedless vascular plants
 Think ferns
Vascular tissue
 Set of tubes that transport materials
around plant
 Allows plants to grow taller
 Water travels up through xylem
 Sugar travels throughout in phloem
Ferns live further on land
 Still must be in moist areas
 Sporophyte survives fine with vascular
tissue
 But sperm must still swim to egg in tiny
gametophyte
Fern gametophyte

Evolution of
pollen grains /
seeds
Evolution of
vascular tissue
Green algae
Evolution of specialized
cells / tissue
Evolution of cuticle
Pollen grains
 Hard covering around sperm, light weight
allows travel by wind
 Removes water requirement for
fertilization
Sperm still swims
 At the very end when
pollen lands on
another plant of
same species
 Pollen tube connects
to ovary, sperm swim
to egg
Full colonization of land
 Vascular tissue
+
 Reproduction through air
Seeds
 Tough coat protects newly fertilized
embryo
 Also contains supply of food (endosperm)
to survive during dormancy period
Gymnosperms
 Think cones (any conifer like pine trees)
female ovary
male pollen cone
Gymnosperm pollen
strategy
 Release a lot, hope some pollinate
 (Meanwhile, irritating everyone else)

Angiosperms
 Think flowers (most diverse plant group)
Flowers
 Attract animals to help carry pollen to the next
flower
 Color or scent attractors guide animals to
obtain sugar from plant
 Oh, and while you’re at it, grab some pollen
 Some angiosperms still wind pollinate (grass)
Advertising in UV color
After fertilization, ovary
becomes fruit
Fruit
 Typically collects sugar to attract animals
 Seeds survive animal digestive system,
pooped out far away from parent (and
with free fertilizer!)
 Some are not eaten by animals, just help
wind carry seed (dandelion)
Asexual reproduction
 Plants can also reproduce asexually
 Many plant parts can regrow to make a
whole new organism when separated
(vegetative reproduction)
