Document Summary

We assume that all plants are photoautotroph, but some plants are heterotrophic, heterotrophic plants can feed on neighbouring plants through a sharing of roots, plants can survive in areas where no animal could survive. Land plants have 2 multicellular stages in their life cycle: one diploid one haploid, diploid generation: produces spores and is called sporophyte, haploid generation: produces gametes by mitosis and is called gametophyte. Miosis forms spores not gametes (sperm and egg like in animals) When moisture levels low they would dry out and when high they would increase meaning they were drought resistant because they could survive drying out. Changes in earth"s atmosphere and climate altered certain biochemical pathways resulting in formation of lignin: vascular plants. Fine roots go though growth and death. Leaves: arose several times during plant evolution: represent modification of stems, 2 types. Microphylls: narrow leaves with only one vein or strand of vascular tissue: evolved as flap like extensions of main stem.
