present day gymnosperms are divided into the four following phyla:
1-Cycadophyta: palm-like trees of tropics/subtropics
2-Ginkgophyta: only a single species: Ginkgo biloba
3-Coniferophyta: cone bearing trees, evergreens: pines, firs, spruce
4-Gnetophyta: consists of 3 genera:
a. welwitschia: in African deserts with only 2 long strap-like leaves
b. Ephedra: desert shrub, souce of alkaloid ephedrine - used to treat congestion of hay fever, Asthma
c. Gnetum: trees or vines with large leathery leaves
Four: bryophytes, ferns, gymnosperms and angiosperms
Angiosperms and Gymnosperms branch from a single common ancestor.
Gymnosperms and angiosperms are the two groups of plants that make seeds. Gymnosperms have naked seeds. Angiosperms have seeds that are inside of a fruit that provides protection and food for the seed.
There are about four different groups of crystals structures that are available in the minerals. The four have different orientations of the close-packed layers.
Gymnosperms.
The four groups of gymnosperms are cycads, ginkgo, gnetophytes, and conifers. Conifers, which include pine, spruce, and fir trees, are the largest and most economically important group of gymnosperms due to their widespread distribution and economic significance in industries such as timber, paper production, and horticulture.
there are alot of different species but there is about the same number of angiospems so there is about 200,000-300,000
The four groups of terrestrial plants are bryophytes (mosses and liverworts), pteridophytes (ferns and their relatives), gymnosperms (conifers and cycads), and angiosperms (flowering plants). These groups vary in their reproductive structures and evolutionary history.
The fourth group of gymnosperms is called gnetophytes. They are a unique group of plants with distinctive features that set them apart from the other three groups. Gnetophytes include genera such as Ephedra, Gnetum, and Welwitschia.
The four main groups of plants are mosses, ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms. Mosses are non-vascular plants, ferns are seedless vascular plants, gymnosperms have naked seeds (like pine trees), and angiosperms have seeds enclosed in fruits (flowering plants).
angiosperms gymnosperms
Angiosperms (flowering plants) and gymnosperms (conifers, cycads, ginkgo) are two groups of vascular plants that produce seeds. Angiosperms have seeds enclosed within a fruit, while gymnosperms have seeds not enclosed, usually in cones.
Gymnosperms and angiosperms
Ferns are not gymnosperms. Gymnosperms are divided into 4 groups,cycads,ginkgoes,gnetophytes,and conifers.
Four: bryophytes, ferns, gymnosperms and angiosperms
Gymnosperms are divided into four main classes: Coniferopsida (conifers), Cycadopsida (cycads), Ginkgopsida (ginkgo), and Gnetopsida (gnetae). Each class includes different groups of gymnosperms with distinct characteristics and reproductive structures.
The four groups of vascular plants are Lycophytes, Pterophytes, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms.Plants in the following groups are:Lycophytes: Club mosses, Spike Mosses, QuilwortsPterophytes: Ferns, Horsetails, Whisk FernsGymnosperms: Ginko tree, ConiferAngiosperms: Flowers
