Cellulose
Plants need this in addition to sunlight and water to live
Carbon Dioxide
Seedless land plants
Bryophytes
Common bryophytes we find in nature
Moss

Characteristic of Mosses
Will accept: lives in shady and moist environments, has spores instead of seeds, only grow less than two inches in height
Germination
Taking a seed and nurturing it in a humid environment to sprout
What is thylakoids
Green pancake size shaped solar panels to hold onto the green pigment found in plants.
Three distinct features of plant
Multicellular, cellulose, photosynthesis
Plants take light energy and turn it into this, a more usable form of energy
Chemical energy
Rhizoids
Small hair like structures to help hornworts anchor onto the ground
