ANGIOSPERMS
Angiosperms are unequivocally the largest and most diverse group of plants on earth. they grow in flowering plants, bushes, trees shrubs and herbs. the characteristics of angiosperms include...
· All angiosperms have flowers at some stage in their life. The flowers serve as the reproductive organs for the plant, providing them a means of exchanging genetic information. · Angiosperms have small pollen grain that spread genetic information from flower to flower. These grains are much smaller than the gametophytes, or reproductive cells, used by non-flowering plants. This small size allows the process of fertilization to occur quicker in the flowers of angiosperms and makes them more efficient at reproducing. · All angiosperms have stamens. Stamens are the reproductive structures found in flowers that produce the pollen grains that carry the male genetic information. · Angiosperms have much smaller female reproduction parts than non-flowering plants, allowing them to produce seeds more quickly. · Angiosperms have a carpel that encloses developing seeds that may turn into a fruit. |
