s
Do NOT produce flowers

4. A plant can be divided into 3 parts

5. Examples of mosses

6. Moss Spore-producing capsule

7. Characteristics of Mosses
· Simplest plants
· No true roots, No vascular tissues (no transports)
· Simple stems & leaves
· Have rhizoids for anchorage
· Spores from capsules (wind-dispersal)
· Damp terrestrial land

8. Ferns

9. Characteristics of Ferns
· Roots, feathery leaves & underground stems
· Have vascular tissues (transport & support)
· Spore-producing organ on the underside of leaves
(reproduction)
· Damp & shady places

10. Gymnosperms
Pine tree

11. Needle-shaped leaves

12. Male cones
(in clusters)
Female cones
(scattered)

13. Characteristics of Gymnosperms
 · Tall evergreen trees
 · Roots, woody stems
 · Needle-shaped leaves
 · Vascular tissues (transport)
 · Cones with reproductive structures
 · Naked seeds in female cones
 · Dry places

14. Flowering
plants
Monocotyledons Dicotyledons
· Roots, stems, leaves
· Vascular tissues (transport)
· Flowers, fruits (contains seeds)

15. Monocotyledons
Parallel veins

16. Characteristics of Monocotyledons
 One seed-leaf
 Leaves have parallel veins
 Herbaceous plants
 E.g. grass, maize

17. Dicotyledons
Veins in network

18. Characteristics of dicotyledons
 Two seed-leaves
 Leaves have veins in network
 E.g. trees, sunflower, rose
