Plants are multicellular photosynthetic organisms that are an essential part of nature and ecosystems. They evolved from water to land organisms and developed vascular tissue, seeds, and flowers. Plants are classified into angiosperms and gymnosperms. Angiosperms produce flowers and fruits and enclose their seeds, while gymnosperms rely on cones and wind pollination. Plants provide essential resources to humans like food, wood, paper, rubber, oils, and medicines and are vital to life.
