This document discusses the key characteristics of plants. It outlines that plants share four main characteristics: (1) photosynthesis using chlorophyll, (2) a protective cuticle layer, (3) rigid cell walls, and (4) a reproductive cycle with sporophyte and gametophyte stages. It then describes the four main groups of plants as nonvascular plants, seedless vascular plants, nonflowering seed plants, and flowering seed plants. Finally, it discusses how scientists believe plants originated from ancient green algae due to their many similarities.

A basic overview of vascular and non vascular plants - gymnosperms and angiosperms; monocots and dicots. Appropriate for High School or advanced middle school.
If you have not (yet) settled down, but you still want to grow your own food, this class will offer tips and tricks for gardening on the move. Topics will include practical skills with container gardening, creating movable planting areas, transplanting, and proper plant care, as well as how to address some of the more emotional challenges of caring for a garden that goes with you wherever you go.
It is fun to have a small, lovely garden in your backyard. People who love gardening enjoy the activity a lot. One of the gardening styles that are becoming quite popular is vertical growing.

I'm Charlie Nardozzi. People are growing plants in the wildest places these days. There are rooftop gardens sprouting up on top of 30 story buildings, container gardens on balconies and fire escapes, and now living green walls in cities, schools and homes.
The green wall revolution coincides with the increased interest in urban gardening. Gardeners are growing everything in green walls. I saw a school once in Queens that had a living green wall indoors to help purify the air. Many common plants can filter off-gasses emitted by paints and carpets. And you don't have to live in a city for it to make sense. I was at the Coastal Maine Botanic Garden last summer and they have a green edible wall filled with basil and cherry tomatoes. In my latest book, Urban Gardening for Dummies, coauthored with Paul Simon, we devote a whole chapter just to vertical gardening.
Space saving is always a good idea and green wall technology now makes it easier for a home gardener to grow up. To grow a vertical garden at home, you can purchase simple kits with pots that hook on a wire screen that can be mounted to a wall or sophisticated planting devices with drip irrigation and fertilizer systems.
You also can make a simple green, wall garden with old wooden pallets. Here's how. Fix any lose boards and remove protruding nails. Staple landscape fabric around the back and three sides of your pallet. Place plants in the one side that will be the top and then lay the pallet horizontal and fill it with potting soil. Plant transplants in the open slats, mixing flowers, veggies and even strawberries. Let them grow on the ground for a few weeks to get established keeping them well watered, then prop up the pallet to grow vertically.
Place, Purpose, Plants: Urban Gardening with Native PlantsFlatbush Gardener
Since 1981, I've gardened in New York City. I've included plants native to eastern North America in in each garden since.
In 2005, we bought a home in the central Brooklyn neighborhood of Flatbush. By gardening with native plants, I've transformed a barren urban yard into lush gardens and wildlife habitat.
These slides accompanied my talk about these experiences at the Long Island Botanical Society on May 12, 2015.
This is a three chapter review for the Agriculture Major Admission Test conducted by the College of Agriculture of Cavite State University, the topicsare: Plant Bilogy, Crop and Agriculture and basic Physiological processes of plants. Credits to all my sourceswhich include lecture notes from our faculty, online sources and books published in the Republic of the Philippines.

2. Plants have 4 Plant
characteristics
that they all share: Characteristics
(1) Photosynthesis
– Plants are green
because they
contain
chlorophyll
– Chlorophyll: green
pigment that
captures energy
from sunlight,
found in
chloroplasts
3. – Plants use energy
from sunlight to
make food from
carbon dioxide and
water—this
process is known
as photosynthesis
– Plants are
producers—they
make their own
food
4. (2) Cuticles
– Plants don’t dry out
because they are
protected by a
cuticle
– Cuticle: a waxy
layer that coats
most of the
surfaces of plants
that are exposed to
air
5. (3) Cell Walls
– Plants do not have a
skeleton like animals
– They stay upright and
are protected because
they are surrounded by
a rigid cell wall
– Cell wall is made of
carbohydrates and
proteins
– Some plants form a
secondary cell wall
this stops them from
growing larger
6.
7. (4) Reproduction
– Plants have 2 stages in their life cycle:
sporophyte stage and gametophyte stage
– In the sporophyte stage plant makes spores
– In suitable environment, spores grow & these
new plants are called gametophytes
8. – During gametophyte stage, female gametophytes
produce eggs and male gametophytes produce
sperm.
– Sex cells cannot grow directly into new plants—a
sperm must fertilize an egg
– The fertilized egg grows into a sporophyte, makes
more spores, and the cycle starts again
9. Check for Understanding
What are 4 characteristics that all
plants share?
Photosynthesis, cuticle, cell wall, and
reproduction
10. 4 Main Groups of Plants
First they can be classified as nonvascular plants and
vascular plants
Vascular plants are further divided into 3 groups:
– (1) seedless plants
– (2) nonflowering seed plants (gymnosperms)
– (3) flowering seed plants (angiosperms )
11. Seedless Plants
***2 groups of plants don’t make seeds:
(1) Nonvascular Plants
– Three groups of plants that lack specialized
conducting tissues and true roots, stems, and leaves
– Depend on diffusion to move materials from one part
of plant to another
– Most are small
– Usually live in damp places
– Don’t have true stems, roots, or leaves
12. – 3 groups of nonvascular plants are
liverworts, hornworts, and mosses
liverworts hornworts mosses
13. Mosses, Liverworts,
and Hornworts
– Have leafy stalks and
rhizoids
– Rhizoid: a rootlike
structure in nonvascular
plants that holds the
plants in place and helps
plants get water and
nutrients
– Have 2 stages to their
life cycle
14. – Importance of Nonvascular Plants
Usually the first plants to live in a new
environment, such as newly exposed rock
When they die, they form a thin layer of soil
Hold soil in place, reducing erosion
Some animals eat nonvascular plants
Other animals use them for nesting
material
Peat mosses are important to humans
because they can be dried out and burned
as fuel
15. (2)
Seedless
Vascular Plants
– Ferns, horsetails, and
club mosses are
usually much smaller
than in the past—
some ferns grew 8
meters tall in ancient
forests!
– Because they have
vascular tissues, they
are often larger than
nonvascular plants
16. Ferns
– Have a rhizome
an underground
stem from which
leaves and roots
grow
– Fern leaves are
called “fronds”
– -The end of the
fronds are called
fiddle heads
17. Club Mosses
– Have vascular tissue, so not
actually a moss
Horsetails
– Stems are hollow and
contain silica—gives them
gritty texture
– Early Americans used
horsetails to scrub pots and
pans
18. – Importance of Seedless Vascular Plants
Help form soil & prevent erosion
Ferns add to soil depth, helping other plants to
grow
Popular houseplants
Fiddleheads of ferns and some horsetails can
be eaten
Horsetails are used in some dietary
supplements, shampoos, and skin-care
products
Remains of ancient ferns, horsetails, and club
mosses form coal, which humans rely on for
energy
19. Check for Understanding
Name & describe the 4 main groups of
plants
1)nonvascular: no specialized tissues
2) Seedless vascular: ferns, horsetails,
club mosses
3) Gymnosperms: nonflowering seed
4) Angiosperm: flowering seed
20. The Origin of Plants
– Green algae may look like a plant, but it isn’t a
plant
– Scientists think that green algae and plants
share a common ancestor because of the
following similarities:
Both have the same kind of chlorophyll
Have similar cell walls
Both use photosynthesis to make own food
Both store energy in form of starch
Both have a two-stage life cycle
21. The similarities between a modern green algae
(right) and plants, such as ferns (left), suggest
that both may have originated from an ancient
species of green algae.
