• The synthesis their food by the means of photosynthesis
• Water is very essential for their growth thy absorb ground water by means of roots


Plant kingdom
1- non-Green plants
2- green plants

Non-Green plants
Which do not have steam, root, and leaves, they lack chlorophyll so they cannot synthesize their food through photosynthesis i-e bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Green plants
Plants which contains chlorophyll and synthesize their food through photosynthesis
They are further divided into two

1- flowering plants or Phanerogams
2- non-flowering plants or Cryptogams

Flowering plants
Those plants which contain seed , they are further divided into two

• Gymnosperms
Those flowering plants which contains naked and unprotected seeds
i-e Pine, Fir, Spur, and Cypress etc

Angiosperms
Whose seeds protected by a fruit or seedpod
i-e Grass, Crops, Vegetables, Fruit and Weeds



Non-flowering plants
Plants which do not have seed, or seedless plants
