Describe Plant Adaptations to Life on Land Plants are multicellular eukaryotic autotrophs Adaptations 1. Cuticle-protective outer covering
2. stomata- openings in leaves to prevent water loss a. Day- open, release water & oxygen and take in carbon dioxide b. Night- close to prevent water loss
4. Spores, seeds, fruits- reproductive structures 5. Leaves- photosynthetic organs 6. Roots- organs to help anchor and absorb water
Compare Vascular & Nonvascular Plants • 2. Vascular • Plants which contain vessels for transport • xylem- vessels transporting water & minerals up to leaves • Phloem- vessel transporting sugar down to roots • Example-flowers, trees • Nonvascular • Plants without vessels for water & mineral transport • Example-mosses
Describe Mosses • Nonvascular plants • Small, soft plants which grow in clumps • Absorbs water like a sponge • Live in moist, shaded areas • Height between 1-2 cm • Pioneer plants: break down rock
MOSS 7. Reproduction a. alternate generations: have 2 body forms in life cycle b. Gametophyte- body form which produces gametes c. Sporophyte- form which produces spores, grows from gametophyte capsule sporophyte stalk Stemlikestructure gametophyte Leaflike structure
8. Steps in reproductive cycle • Spore germinate & form gametophyte generation • Antheridium- forms male gametes(sperm) • Archegonium- forms female gametes(egg) • Sperm fertilizes egg & zygote is formed • Zygote divides and forms sporophyte

Describe seedless plants • Vascular plants- have xylem & phloem • Live in moist, fertile shaded areas • Form fronds instead of leaves • Produce spores instead of seeds Fiddlehead-young fern frond
5. Reproduction a. alternate generations b. sporophtye & gametophyte are independent of each other c. spores released, germinate to form heart- shaped gametophyte called Prothallus d. prothallus produces both antheridium & archegonium e. sperm released & swims through water to egg where it is fertilized f. zygote is formed and develops in sporophyte

1. Plants are ____________, ___________ autotrophs A. multicellular, prokaryotes C. unicellular, prokaryotes B. multicellular, eukaryotes D. unicellular, eukaryotes2. Identify this part of the plant A. stomata C. cuticle B. cellulose D. phloem 3. Gametophytes produce __________________. A. spores B. anteridium C. archegonium D. gametes The opening
4. Name this part of the moss life cycle • Protonema • Antheridia • sporophyte • sperm • 5. A fern leaf is called a ____. • Leaflet • Frond • Green leaf • leaf
