- Abstract ?
Growing root includes 3 regions:
- root tip
- elongation region
- maturation region
Root tip and elongation region are sites of
primary growth through apical meristem tissue
is asexual
Plant Growth
Vascular plants
Began to evolve during the Carboniferous
period
Division Lycophyta
- Club Mosses
vascular and non-
seed .
Division Pterophyta
whisk ferns, horsetails, and
ferns vascular and non-seed .
Seed Bearing Plants
Gymnosperms
are vascular
plants that
produce seeds
on scales of
woody strobili
called cones.
In other words, they have
naked seeds - seeds not
enclosed in a fruit.
The four divisions of
Gymnosperms are:
Cycadophyta
Ginkgophyta
Gnetophyta
Coniferophyta
Cycads have a terminal rosette of leaves
and bear seeds in cones.
All cycads have separate male and
female plants.
Division
Ginkgophyta has
only on living
species Ginkgo
biloba.
Like Cycads,
Ginkgos have
separate male
and female trees.
Division Gnetophyta has 3 genera:
Gnetum
Ephedra
Welwitschia
Coniferophyta is the largest and most
diverse division of the gymnosperms.

Division Anthophyta has two
classes of angiosperms .
Monocots and Dicots
Possible Advantages to
Alternation of Generations
Amplification of the sexual product
because it produces many spores.
