Plant Classification and Adaptation
CHAPTER 4
![Page 2: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Plants are living things in different sizes – from very tiny to very tall ones. The smallest plant cannot be seen without using a microscope. The big ones like Acacia tree, can be seen even from far afar.

Gymnosperms vs
Angiosperms

GymnospermsSeed-producing plants that do not have true flowersAlso known as conifers because they produce woody conesCones are fruits of conifers and are made up of scale
Are grown to stop the force of the winds around farms and to decorate parks and yards
Grows well in North America and Europe where the climates are temperate (ie. Baguio – pine trees)
![Page 9: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
AngiospermsSeed-producing plants that produce flowersGarden and wildflowers, weeds, plants that produce crops and vegetables, cereal grains, and trees that lose their leaves in the fall
Most of the trees in the PhilippinesDivided into two groups:
monocotyledons or monocotsDicotyledons or dicots
![Page 10: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
MonocotsPlants that produce seeds with one seed leaf
Mono means “one” cot means “seed leaf”
Usually have narrow, smooth edged, parallel-veined leaves
![Page 11: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

DicotsPlants that produce seeds with two seed leaves
Di means “two” cot means “seed leaf”
Usually have broad, irregularly shaped, netted leaves
![Page 13: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Plants That Do Not
Produce Seeds
![Page 15: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Plants That Do Not Produce Seed
Have three Major Groups
ThallophytesBryophytesPteridophytes
![Page 16: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Thallophytes
•Simplest form of plants•Have no roots, stems, or leaves
![Page 17: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Algae•Have chlorophyll•Can make their own food•They are colored and usually grow in water
Example: blue-green, green, red and brown algae.
![Page 18: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Fungi•Cannot make their own food•Do not have chlorophyll•Get their food from living or dead plants and animals•Some are colorless, others have varied colors
Example: yeasts, mushrooms and molds
![Page 19: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Nemesio L. Mendiola•Known as the Luther Burband of the Philippines•Was born in Angono, Rizal and studied at the College of Agriculture of the University of the Philippines•Combined the sweetness of Hawaiian pineapple and native pina•His work included rust-resistant coffee, the ambos banana, the Bornean tsempalak, the kopolescan, and the spice nutmeg

Plants are autotrophs; they are producers
They harness the energy of the sun in the process called photosynthesis
Plants uses sunlight, water, Carbon dioxide, and minerals from the soil
Photosynthesis Takes place in the leaves Air and carbon dioxide
enters the plant through the stomata
Water and minerals enter through the roots and travels through the xylem and the phloem
![Page 35: Plant classification and adaptation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061607/553a21a24a79595b7a8b4aa8/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Photosynthesis The chloroplasts are where
photosynthesis occurs which contain chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is the pigment in the plant that absorbs sunlight

Some plants live in a bog
•A bog is wetland where the soil has high acidity but low in oxygen and mineral content
•Plants that thrive in bogs:Venus flytrap and the pitcher plant
