- anchoring the plant to the ground - extracting water and minerals from the soil - some also store food energy (as starch) - 3 main types of root are tap root, fibrous root, and adventitious
Stem
- supporting leaves and flowers - holding the leaves and flowers in the best position for food gathering and reproduction - using xylem and phloem to transport materials from areas of plenty to areas of need in various parts of the plant - storing nutrients for future use
Leaf
- maximizing surface area for photosynthesis - controlling the intake and release of gases (opening called “stoma” which are surrounded by 2 guard cells)

2 types of seed bearing plants: Angiosperms and Gymnosperms
Angiosperm (Flowering)
Angiosperms are produce protected seeds using flowers as are their sexual reproductive organs Eg Tulips
- pollen is spread from the anther to the stigma of another plant (cross pollination) or the same plant (self pollination) by bees, insects, wind, etc.- a pollen tube grows down the style into the ovary - a sperm travels down the tube to fertilize one egg resulting in the development of a seed
Dicot
Two cotyledon (2 Seed Leaves) Leaves of 4 or 5 petals Network veins Vascular bundles in rings
Dicot stem 100x
Dicot root 100x

Monocot
One cotyledon (1 Seed Leaf) Leaves of 3 petals Parallel veins Scattered vascular bundles
Monocot Stem 40x

Gymnosperm (Cone bearing)
Gymnosperms are plants that produce naked seeds (mostly cone bearing plants) using their sexual reproductive organs. Eg. Pine trees
Pollination
- The pollen from the male cones are carried by the wind to the female cones to make seeds in a process - The seeds are protected by a structure like a maple key and fall to the ground to germinate and grow into new trees.
Pollen 100x
Basidiomycota– have short lived fruiting bodies E.g. mushrooms in the grass
Coprinus 100x
Ascomycota – largest group, develop finger-like sacs, include yeasts
Zygomycota– usually multicellular, terrestrial Eg. rhizopus (bread mould)
Rhizopus Sporangia 40x
Rhizopus Mycelium 100x
Chytridiomycota – mostly unicellular , aquatic, spores have flagella E.g. Synchytrium endobioticum (potato wart)
Deuteromycota - diverse but no sexual structures E.g. Trichophyton rubrum (causes Athlete’s foot)

- Eg. Humans - All chordates have had a notochord in one stage in their life - are deuterostomes - are bilaterally symmetric - have a fluid-filled body cavity
Subphylum Vertebrata
- Chordates with the notochord replaced by a vertebral column during development
Classes of Vertebrata
Class Mammalia
- Eg. Dogs - Have hair - Specialized Teeth - Endothermic (warm-blooded) - Have mammary Glands - Have placenta (most) - Diaphragm - Give birth to live young except monotremes and marsupials
Class Aves
- Eg. Falcons - Have backbones - Have feathers - Endothermic - Hollow bones
Class Reptilia
- Eg. Snakes - First class of organisms to adapt to life on land - Cannot regulate own body temperature - Powerful jaw
Class Amphibia
- Eg. Frogs - Live part of their lives in the water and part of their lives on the land - 4 legged
Class Chondrichthyes
- Eg. Sharks - Flexible skeleton made of cartilage instead of bone - One or two dorsal fins
Class Osteichthyes
- Eg. Eels - Jawed fish - Specific organs for respiration, excretion and blood circulation. - Have a swim bladder (gas filled sac)
Class Agnatha
- Eg. Lampreys - Jawless fish - Earliest vertebrates - Most agnathans have a skeleton made of cartilage - Fertilization of eggs takes place outside the body.
Subphylum Tunicata
- Sea squirts, larvaceans both of which are soft-bodied filter-feeders - Sessile - Salps float in water and feeds on plankton
Subphylum Cephalochordata
- Lancets (Amphioxus) - Small, "vaguely fish-shaped" animals that lack brains, clearly defined heads and specialized sense organs
- Eg. Spiders - insects and crustaceans - Invertebrates with exoskeletons (made of chitin) - Hemolymph - All terrestrial species use internal fertilization - Aquatic can use internal or external
- Eg. Squid - Body cavity is a hemocoel (open circulatory system) - Most molluscs have muscular mouths with radulae - Most perform external fertilization - Hermaphrodite molluscs use internal fertilization
- Eg. Leeches - Segmented worms - Closed circulatory system (blood is contained in tubes) - Eat microscopic critters in the soil - Sexually and asexually
- Eg. Tapeworms - Have true digestive system open at both ends (mouth and anus) - Round body - Parasites - Sexually and asexually
- Eg. Flatworms - Invertebrates - Bilateral symmetry - Flattened body - Can be scavengers or parasites - Sexually and asexually
Planarian W.M 100x
Planarian C.S 400x
- Eg. Starfish, sea urchins - Have radial symmetry, - Most are able to reproduce asexually and regenerate tissue, organs, and limbs.
- Eg. Jellyfish Have a single orifice and body cavity that are used for digestion and respiration Classified into 4 groups - Sessile Anthozoa - Swimming Scyphozoa - Cubozoa - Hydrozoa
Hydra 40x
- Sponges - Asymmetric - No tissues/organs - Filter feeders
Phylum Acrasiomycota

- Filamentous - Some parasitic (extend threads into host tissues and absorb nutrients)
Phylum Oomycota
