All About Plants
• Plants are multicellular eukaryotes that have cell
walls made of cellulose.
• Plants in the Kingdom Plantae
• Plants are autotrophs
• Plants life cycles have two alternating phases, a
diploid (2N) phase and a haploid (N) phase known
as alteration of generations
• Diploid phase (2N) also known as sporophyte;
spore producing plant
• Haploid (N) phase also known as the
gametophyte, or gamete producing plant
Structure of a Plant

•
Roots- help to anchor the plant in the soil
so it doesn’t fall over
Stems- support the plant; act as the
plants pluming system by conducting
water and nutrients from the roots and
food in the form of glucose from the
leaves to other plant parts
Leaves- designed to capture sunlight
which flowers use to make food through
photosynthesis
Photosynthesis- the process by which
plants, some bacteria, and some
protistans, use the energy from sunlight
to produce sugar, which cellular
respiration converts into ATP the “fuel”
used by all living things
Flowers- the reproduction part of most
plants
Seeds- an embryo of a plant that is
encased in a protective covering and
surrounded by food supply
What Do Plants Use To Make
Food?
Plants uses many different
things to make food including:
•Chlorophyll which is a green
pigment that is in leaves of
plants
•Light
•Carbon Dioxide
•Water
•Nutrients and Minerals
•In photosynthesis, plants
release oxygen into the air in
which humans and animals
breathe.
Reproduction
• Pollination- the transfer of pollen from a stamen to a pistil; starts the
production of seeds
• Stamens- the male part of the flower and they produce a sticky
powder pollen
• Pistil- the female part of the body;
• Stigma- the top part of the pistil which is often sticky
• Ovule- the base of the pistil where seeds are made
Pollination
• Plants that are pollinated by animals are often bright
colored and have a strong smell to attract the animal
pollinators
• Plants that are pollinated by wind are pollinated when
wind picks up pollen from one plant and carry the pollen
to another plant
Monocots and Dicots
• Two classes within the angiosperms: the
Monocotyledonae, or monocots, and the dicotyledonae,
or dicots.
• Monocots and dicots are named for the number of seed
leaves, or cotyledons, in the plant embryo
• Monocots have one seed leaf, and dicots have two
Cotyledons
• Cotyledon- the first leaf or the first pair of
leaves produced by the embryo of a seed
plant
What Plants Need to Survive
• Plants use the energy from sunlight to carry out
photosynthesis; plants displays adaptations shaped by the
need to gather sunlight
• All plants require a constant supply of water; plants must
obtain and deliver water to all their cells ; plants have
certain structures that limit water; as plants absorb water,
they absorb minerals
• Plants require oxygen to support cellular respiration as
well as carbon dioxide to carry out photosynthesis: plants
exchange gases with the atmosphere without losing
excessive amounts of water through evaporation
• Plants take up water and minerals through their roots but
make food in their leaves
Venation Patterns
• Cotyledon venation patterns are
described for 93 species
• Patterns are grouped into series
of levels of complexity according
the number of primary vein, nine,
seven, six, five, three, or one and
three vein patterns are
predominate
