SPIROGYRA

BRYOPHYTA
Simplest Land Plants
No true Stem,Leaves and Roots
Hair like rhizoids to hold
Need water for fertilisation
Embryo after fertilisation
EXAMPLE - MOSES

VASCULAR CRYPTOGRAMS PTERIDOPHYTES
Plant body has Stem, roots and leaves
Vascular system present
Reproductive organs- multicellular
Fertilised Egg becomes Embryo
EXAMPLE - FERNS

GYMNOSPERMS
Naked Seeded plants
Sporophyte tall trees
