GROUPING
OF
PLANTS
How
Plants
Are
Grouped
Plants
are
often
put
into
groups
by
the
type
of
parts
or
structures
they
have.
They
can
be
grouped
according
to
their
types
of
leaves,
stems,
flowers,
roots,
and
even
seeds.
Many
plants
have
leaves
that
look
similar
while
others
have
totally
different
kinds
of
leaves.
Plant
and
tree
leaves
may
be
different
in
size,
shape,
and
color.
Trees
Trees
can
be
placed
into
groups
according
to
whether
or
not
they
lose
their
leaves
in
the
fall.
•
Deciduous
trees
are
trees
that
lose
their
leaves
in
the
fall.
An
oak
tree
is
a
deciduous
tree.
•
Coniferous
trees
do
not
lose
their
leaves
in
the
fall.
Coniferous
trees
have
leaves
that
look
like
needles.
A
pine
tree
is
an
example
of
a
coniferous
tree.

Checkpoint:
What
is
the
difference
between
a
deciduous
tree
and
a
coniferous
tree?

Plants
and
trees
also
have
various
stems.
For
example,
the
stems
of
most
trees
are
thick,
strong,
and
have
bark
protecting
them,
while
a
stem
of
a
tulip
is
thin,
green,
and
fragile.
Whether
a
plant
or
tree
produces
flowers
can
determine
what
group
plants
and
trees
belong
in
as
well.
Some
plants
and
trees
produce
flowers,
while
others
do
not.
Flowering
plants
have
parts
that
make
seeds
or
pollen.
Plants
that
flower
grow
new
flowers
by
producing
seeds.
Plants
that
do
not
produce
flowers
or
seeds
make
new
plants
in
a
variety
of
other
ways.
Lesson
Checkpoint:
How
do
flowering
plants
make
new
plants?
Plants
and
trees
can
also
be
put
into
groups
depending
on
whether
or
not
they
produce
seeds
or
cones.
Flowering
plants
and
trees
produce
flowers.
Coniferous
trees
do
not
produce
flowers.
They
produce
cones
instead.
Two
different
kinds
of
cones
grow
on
coniferous
trees.
One
kind
of
cone
that
grows
on
coniferous
trees
is
a
small
pollen
cone.
Another
kind
of
cone
that
grows
on
coniferous
trees
is
a
large
seed
cone.

In
order
for
a
coniferous
tree
to
make
seeds,
pollen
from
a
small
pollen
cone
needs
to
land
on
the
large
seed
cone.
The
wind
carries
pollen
from
a
small
pollen
cone
to
a
large
seed
cone
on
a
coniferous
tree.
When
pollen
mixes
with
the
seeds
on
a
large
seed
cone,
seeds
start
growing.
Seeds
grow
under
the
scales
of
a
large
seed
cone
on
a
coniferous
tree.

Let’s
not
forget
one
of
the
most
important
parts
of
a
plant…the
roots.
A
variety
of
plants
and
trees
have
long
roots
that
grow
deep
into
the
ground,
while
others
have
short
roots
that
grow
very
shallow.
Wait
there’s
more…
There
are
other
properties
to
consider
when
grouping
plants
besides
their
parts:
Plants
can
be
put
into
groups
according
to
how
they
grow.
For
instance,
some
plants
may
grow
low
to
the
ground
while
other
kinds
of
flowering
plants
may
grow
high
off
the
ground.
For
example,
violets
grow
close
to
the
ground,
while
sunflowers
grow
to
a
few
feet
above
the
ground.
Plants
can
also
be
put
into
groups
according
to
how
long
they
live.
Some
flowering
plants
only
live
one
year,
called
annuals.
Other
plants
die
during
the
fall
and
then
in
the
spring
they
grow
again,
called
perennials.

Checkpoint:
Name
two
ways
plants
can
be
grouped
besides
by
their
parts.
