Document Summary

Cell walls made of cellulose, use of chlorophyll a and b, and creation of a cell plate during cell division are characteristics that algae and land plants share. Alternation of generations is what the lifecycle is characterized by. A sporophyte is a diploid multicellular and a gametophyte is a haploid multicellular. Oxygen from early photosynthesis started to create ozone, which led to the formation of the ozone layer. Bryophyte is the first lineage of land plants. A waxy cuticle prevents water loss in higher plants allowing them to survive in drier environments. Vascular tissue is an important development in plants. Lignin is responsible for creating rigidity associated with higher plants. A fern is the most common kind of seedless vascular plant. A gymnosperm is the most basic example of seeded plants. An angiosperm is the most advanced and most numerous group of plants. The flower is where the embryo forms and the ovary expands around it.
