PLANTS
Plants are organisms in the kingdom Plantae. They are crucial to life on Earth as they play an important role in many ecological processes. Here are some important facts about the plant:
- Cell Structure:
Plants are eukaryotes; This means that their cells have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. They also have cell walls made of cellulose. - Photosynthesis:
They can photosynthesise, converting sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose (a type of sugar) and oxygen. This process is necessary for energy and oxygen production in space.They can photosynthesise, converting sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose (a type of sugar) and oxygen. This process is necessary for energy and oxygen production in space. - Reproduction:
They reproduce sexually and asexually. Sexual reproduction occurs by the union of male and female gametes. Asexual reproduction can occur through methods such as vegetative propagation, in which new plants grow from the parent plant’s origin. - Ecological Importance:
Plants are important in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem. They provide oxygen, provide food to animals, and help with water. They also play a role in soil stabilisation and erosion control. - Classification:
They are divided into various groups according to their different characteristics. Major groups include bryophytes (mosses and liverworts), ferns (ferns), gymnosperms (cones), and angiosperms (flowering plants).
