Introduction
• Kingdom Plantae includes all the plants.
They are eukaryotic, multicellular and
autotrophic organisms. The plant cell
contains a rigid cell wall. Plants have
chloroplast and chlorophyll pigment, which is
required for photosynthesis.
Characteristics of Kingdom Plantae
• They are non-motile.
• They make their own food and hence are called
autotrophs.
• They reproduce asexually by vegetative propagation
or sexually.
• These are multicellular eukaryotes. The plant cell
contains the outer cell wall and a large central vacuole.
• Plants contain photosynthetic pigments called
chlorophyll present in the plastids.
• They have different organelles for anchorage,
reproduction, support and photosynthesis.
Classification
• Plant body - Presence or absence of a well-
differentiated plant body. E.g. Root, Stem and
Leaves.
• Vascular system - Presence or absence of a
vascular system for the transportation of
water and other substances. E.g. Phloem and
Xylem.
• Seed formation - Presence or absence of
flowers and seeds and if the seeds are naked
or enclosed in a fruit.
Summary
• Plantae is the plant kingdom that contains all plants
on the earth. They are multicellular eukaryotes.
Characteristically, they contain a rigid structure that
surrounds the cell membrane known as the cell wall.
Plants also have a green-colored pigment known as
chlorophyll that is quite vital for photosynthesis.
• We investigate six plantae characteristics, one of
which is "They reproduce asexually by vegetative
propagation or sexually."
• Plantae are classified into three types: plant body,
vascular system, and seed formation.
