Characteristics of Plants

Traits
1. an organism consisting of a cell or cells in which the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes contained within a distinct nucleus. Eukaryotes include all living organisms otherthan the eubacteria and archaebacteria.
  1. of an organism or part having or consisting of many cells.
    1. is an organism, either a green plant or bacterium, which is part of the first level of a food chain.
      1. Sun, carbon dioxide are producers for plants

    3. brown algae, red algae have multicellular cells

Adaptions
1. the action of protecting someone or something, or the state of being protected.
  1. Support
    1. bear all or part of the weight of
      1. Transportation
        the action of transporting someone or something or the process of being transported

Classifications
1. Vascular
  1. of, relating to, affecting, or consisting of a vessel or vessels, especially those that carry blood.
    1. Non-Vascular
      1. Non-vascular plants are plants without a vascular system
        Non-vascular plants are plants without a vascular system which are xylem and phloem.
    2. Seeded
      1. The spermatophytes, also known as phanerogams or phenogamae, comprise those plants that produce seeds, hence the alternative name seed plants. They are a subset of the embryophytes or land plants.
        Seedless
        Ferns, horsetails, mosses, and liverworts do not produce flowers or grow from seeds. The life cycles of these plants have two distinct stages – one in which SPORES are produced, and one in which sex cells (sperm and eggs) are produced. Most seedless plants live in damp and shady habitats.
        Ferns, horsetails, mosses, and liverworts do not produce flowers or grow from seeds.
        The spermatophytes, also known as phanerogams or phenogamae
    3. The vascular plants include all seed-bearing plants (the gymnosperms and angiosperms) and the pteridophytes (including the ferns, lycophytes, and horsetails).
