Listen to this podcast to learn about flowering and non-flowering plants. You can learn the features of each kind of plant, so you will identify them when you go outside the classroom. Are you ready?
A flowering plant is a plant that produces a flower. A flowering plant is called an angiosperm. It is important to remember that the flower is part of the reproduction cycle. All flowering plants produce seeds. Nonflowering plants are those that never produce a flower. Some nonflowering plants still produce seeds; this type of plant is called a gymnosperm. For example, conifer trees pines. Mosses and ferns are the other two major types of plants that do not grow flowers. Mosses and ferns reproduce by spores instead of seeds. The main difference between flowering and nonflowering plants is their method of reproduction. Flowering plants rely on pollination for reproduction, whereas nonflowering plants rely on dispersion to continue their life cycle.
A short history about rubbish. Recycling means reusing our trash instead of getting rid of it. This solves the problem of what to do with our trash and it also helps us with another problem. By using the same materials over and over again, we save our natural resources.
