3. CLASSIFICATION OF PLANTS
Plants are divided into: flowering plants and non-flowering plants.
Flowering plants : angiosperm and gyimnosperms
Non – flowering plants: ferns and mosses.
Angiosperms: Produce fruits with seeds inside. Examples: Cherry
Trees.
Gymnosperms: Have small flowers. They don´t produce any fruit
and their seeds develop in cones.
Ferns: They hace roots and strong
Mosses: They produce sores inside capsules.

4. Parts of plants
• Roots: The roots hold the plant in the ground. Roots absorb water and
minerals needed for nutrition from the ground through the roots hairs.
• Stem: The stem holds up the pther àrts pf the plant, It also transports
materials to and from the leaves. Water and minerals travel through the
stem yo the leaves for photosyntesis. The food produced through
photosyntesis then travels to the other parts pf the plan.
• Leaves: Leaves contain chlorophyll, a green subtance which is necessary for
hotosyntesis. Most leaves have two parts: the petiole and the blade. Veins
in the blade support the leaf and carry water and minerals. On the
underside of the blade, there are tiny holes, called stomata. The gas
exchange in leaves takes place through stomata
