Field study at Central park
  1. Field Study: Identify plants in a west coast rainforest, describe
    and draw:
    1. trees: vine maple, cedar, hemlock, douglas fir
    2. bushes: salal, huckleberry, salmonberry, red elderberry
    3. ground cover: moss, ferns
be prepared to identify the plants from a picture
You have 2 plant diagrams:
  1. Plant diagrams: Summarize the correct order of plant evolution.
  2. What are three evolutionary trends of plants?
  3. How do land plants adapt to conditions on land?
    1. Identify how plants prevent water loss
    2. How do tracheophyte plants disperse their male gametophyte?
      1. Ferns (use swimming sperm.)
      2. Conifers ( use wind pollination)
      3. angiosperms (use wind AND vector pollination (attract the pollinator))
    3. How do plants move water up from the ground?
  4. What is the definition of a plant?
  5. See the plant diagrams: Also textbook p. 257 to 274,

      moss gametophyte  
Classification notes (handout) : and the text: p196-199
