Characteristics and classification of angiosperms, fungi, and algae

Angiosperms, Fungi, Algae

Characteristics of Angiosperms

The evolutionary diversification of angiosperms and the diversification of insects are is associated together in time about some 125 million years ago The seeds of angiosperms develop from the ovary of flowers and are enclosed in fruits.

The flowers of this plant assist in attracting pollinating organisms.

The fruits of angiosperms help in the dispersion of offspring.

Characteristics Of Fungi

Fungi are the most important group of plant pathogens

Fungi are more than 200,000 known species among which over 8,000 species can cause plant diseases.

Fungi that primarily survive on non-living organic material are known as saprophytes.

Most fungi can be seen with the naked eye for instance, mushrooms.

Fungi are reproduced by production of spores and are in a wide range of shapes and colors.

They produced in a wide variety of reproductive structures, which is known as fruiting bodies.

Most fungal plant pathogens apart from a few that produce mushrooms; form fruiting bodies, which are microscopic in size.

Fungal spores and fruiting bodies of fungi are different from all other plants Characteristics of Algae

An alga is one of the most remaining forms of plant life as it can freely float in the water or cling to walls, floor and other equipments.

This plant is nourished by sunlight and heat, and flourish in water with a high pH level and water that is in high nitrogen level.

Algae cultivate growth of bacteria.

Black Algae Cyanophyta: These are dark blue, black or in green color that are mostly grown in colonies as small dots.

They have a protective layer over itself and are usually visible in white plaster.
