What is the ways of classifying plants?

Answer 1

PLANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEMS

There are several plant classification systems and little agreement, e.g. some botanists believe the ferns are a class within the Division Pteridophyta, others consider them a division of their own. In this course, rather than use a formal classification system we will simply refer to these groups by their informal names;-

Algae

Bryophytes

Pteridophytes

Gymnosperms

Angiosperms

There are a few other higher categories of classification you may come across in your reading.

Lower plants usually include algae and Bryophytes, while higher plants refer to Pteridophytes, Gymnosperms and Angiosperms.

The word Cryptogams literally means "hidden wedding" and alludes to the fact that the sex life of these plants (algae, Bryophytes and Pteridophytes) was once not understood. Phanerogams ("open wedding") are the seed plants - the gymnosperms and angiosperms.

Thallophytes is an outmoded term for plants whose body is not differentiated into root/stem/leaves but is termed a thallus. Algae fall into this category (and fungi did too when they were considered to be plants).

Vascular plants are those with vascular tissue (xylem & phloem). Embryophytes (all but algae) are plants that bear an embryo and are synonymous with land plants.

Answer 2

The way that you classify all living organisms is: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. The scientific name is the Genus and Species levels. The rules for writing a scientific name are: 1. italicise or underline (because it's in latin) 2. The first letter of the Genus is capitalized, the first letter of the species is not. (The rest is all lowercase) 3. Write in print (not cursive)

Answer 3

I'm not entirely sure, but we did this at school so I kind of know.

You can classify plants by sorting them into different sections depending on their qualities.

This is mostly because of their tissue and seed structure.

There are four main groups that you can sort plants into.

You might get some better answers if you search for plant kingdom.

thanks.

Answer 4

You classify plants by their reproduction.
