Plantae sensu stricto, ou Viridiplantae, uma circunscrição estrita, mas mais alargada que a anterior, incluindo, para além das Embryophyta, toda ou parte das algas verdes ( Chlorophyta e Charophyta ), mas deixando de fora as algas vermelhas ( Rhodophyta) e ainda o pequeno grupo atípico das algas Glaucophyta.

Plants are the eukaryotes that form the kingdom Plantae; they are predominantly photosynthetic. This means that they obtain their energy from sunlight, using chloroplasts derived from endosymbiosis with cyanobacteria to produce sugars from carbon dioxide and water, using the green pigment chlorophyll.
Flowering plants are plants that bear flowers and fruits, and form the clade Angiospermae (/ ˌ æ n dʒ i ə ˈ s p ər m iː /), commonly called angiosperms. They include all forbs (flowering plants without a woody stem), grasses and grass-like plants, a vast majority of broad-leaved trees, shrubs and vines, and most aquatic plants.

At least some plant cells contain photosynthetic organelles (plastids) which enable them to make food for themselves. With sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide, the plastids make sugars, the basic molecules needed by the plant. Free oxygen (O2) is produced as a by-product of photosynthesis. Later, in the cell cytoplasm, the sugars may be turned into...
The roots of plants perform two main functions. First, they anchor the plant to the ground. Second, they absorb water and various nutrients dissolved in water from the soil. Plants use the water to make food. The water also provides the plant with support. Plants that lack water become very limp and their stems cannot support their leaves. Plants w...
Flowers and pollination
Flowers are the reproductive organ only of flowering plants (Angiosperms). The petals of a flower are often brightly colored and scented to attract insects and other pollinators. The stamen is the male part of the plant. It is composed of the filament (a stalk) that holds the anther, which produces the pollen. Pollen is needed for plants to produce seeds. The carpel is the female part of the flower. The top part of the carpel contains the stigma. The style is the neck of the carpel. The ovary...
Seed travelers
A plant produces many spores or seeds. Lower plants such as moss and ferns produce spores. The seed plants are the Gymnospermsand Angiosperms. If all the seeds fell to the ground besides the plant, the area might become overcrowded. There might not be enough water and minerals for all the seeds. Seeds usually have some way to get to new places. Some seeds can be dispersed by the wind or by water. Seeds inside juicy fruits are dispersed after being eaten. Sometimes, seeds stick to animals and...
The question of the earliest plant fossils depends on what is meant by the word "plant". 1. If by plants we mean phototrophs using chlorophyll, then cyanobacteria in stromatolites are the first fossils, 3,450 million years ago (mya) in the Archaean eon. The remarkable precision is possible because the fossils were sandwiched between lava flows that...
Morfologia vegetal. A morfologia vegetal, uma das bases principais da botânica, tem por objetivo de olhar as formas e estruturas das plantas. Utilizada, dentre outras coisas, no auxílio à classificação de plantas e na fisiologia vegetal .

Evidence of the emergence of embryophyte land plants first occurs in the middle Ordovician (~ 470 million years ago ), and by the middle of the Devonian (~ 390 million years ago ), many of the features recognised in land plants today were present, including roots and leaves.
