  1. How do we classify Plants? 5th Grade

  2. Scientists study what is INSIDE plants to divide them into 2 groups. What are these 2 groups called? • 1) Vascular plants • 2) Nonvascular plants

  3. Moss

  4. Corn

  5. What is the difference between the microscopic view of the moss and the microscopic view of the corn?

  6. 2 types of plants • Moss = tightly packed cells that look like a jigsaw puzzle  NONVASCULAR • Corn = tube-like cells that tunnel up and down the stem  VASCULAR

  7. Vascular = “composed of or containing vessels” • Water is taken in by a plant’s roots and moves up a set of tubes toward the plant’s leaves, flowers, and other parts • Foods made in the leaves move down the other set of tubes, leading to the plant’s parts • VASCULAR TISSUE

  8. Vascular Plants have tubes that… • Transport water and nutrients over a distance

  9. Vascular Plants: have roots, stems, leaves

  10. Nonvascular Plants • Plants that do not have vascular tissues (tubes to connect different parts of the plant and transport materials)

  11. In Nonvascular Plants, water from the outside passes directly into the cells…
