Plantae Evolution Notes

Make your own notes on Kingdom plantae evolution notes slides
And a Plant evolution lab activity which will take us maybe two periods.  

Plants alternate their generations.  If humans did this, it would be something like this

Plant evolution and Alternation of Generation

Watch this video and learn about alternation of generation and then work through the worksheet on Plants in class.  Go over the sheet on Evolution of Plants.

All the consent forms of all members

Biological Classification  Quiz will be based on these questions and from  these notes:

Classification
