Producers that have cell walls
- Have no “pipes” to transport water and nutrients- Small in size
- First plants to inhabit a new environment
- Reproduce using spores
- Have “pipes” to deliver water and nutrients
- Reproduce using spores- Ex: Ferns
- Have “pipes” to deliver water and nutrients
- Reproduce using spores
- Use pollen and seeds to reproduce
- Plant that use flowers to reproduce and have seeds in fruit- Ex: Apple Tree
- Ex: Ferns
- Have “pipes” to deliver water and nutrients
- Reproduce using spores

Transports water and minerals throughout a plant
Transports food
1) Support and anchor
2) Absorb water from soil3) Storage of food
Carnationshttp://www.stevespanglerscience.com/content/start_video/color-changing-carnations
Photosynthesis
Waxy protective covering
Cacti: hard pointed needles and Venus Flytrap: catches insects
1) Support2) Transport materials from roots to leaves3) Storage
1) Filament2) Anther: produces pollen (plant sperm)
1) Stigma: sticky to catch pollen
2) Style: tube that leads to eggs
3) Ovary: holds eggs
Purpose of Flowers: to attract insects
Transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma (egg)
When the pollen (sperm) unites with the egg
A young plant that is protected and nourished
Cones
Fruits
Wind, animals, water
It becomes inactive to survive drought or cold temperatures
When the young plant starts to grow and push out of the seed
Fruit: Ripened ovary
Animals eat fruit and disperse the seeds
What is a fruit and how does an angiosperms plant disperse it’s seeds?
