Full Transcript

Join the Amoeba Sisters in their updated plant structure and adaptations video as they discuss the terms vascular vs nonvascular and how they relate to plants before exploring some general categories of plants (bryophytes, seedless vascular, gymnosperms, and angiosperms). Then, the Amoeba Sisters go into how plant structure works with the function of photosynthesis. This video ends with a few examples of interesting plant adaptations! Please note: this video has updated visuals and audio from our old "Plant Structure and Adaptations" video. It still includes the same content discussed before plus more! But if you prefer the old video, it will remain up here: https://youtu.be/DGpPHrLF-5M Table of Contents: 00:00 Intro 00:50 Focus of Video 00:56 Vascular vs Nonvascular 02:25 Bryophytes 03:06 Vascular Plants 04:18 Monocots and Eudicots Illustration 04:32 Plant Structure 07:23 Some Especially Fascinating Adaptations 08:38 Value of Learning About Plants ------------------------------- Factual References: Fowler, Samantha, et al. “14.1 the Plant Kingdom - Concepts of Biology | OpenStax.” Openstax.org, 25 Apr. 2013, openstax.org/books/concepts-biology/pages/14-1-the-plant-kingdom.

Great read, it also goes into different types of mistletoe! https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/mistletoe/ We mention that some nonvascular plants lack stomata. Want to learn more about stomata evolution? Here's a recommended reading, and we highly recommend checking out figure 1! https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28356502/ We mention on our chart of general plant categories that if you're curious: we'll also have the phyla names for you! Seedless Vascular Plants: Phylum Lycophyta Phylum Monilophyta Gymnosperms: Phylum Ginkgophyta Phylum Cycadophyta Phylum Gnetophyta Phylum Coniferophyta Angiosperms: Phylum Anthophyta See our Short Plant Hormones! https://youtu.be/vaN8YMHzx7s See our Short Plant Tropisms! https://youtu.be/UFO35FVeyO0 See our Short Carnivorous Plants! https://youtu.be/oMAtRjs3yk4 ----------------------------------------------- The Amoeba Sisters videos demystify science with humor and relevance. The videos center on Pinky's certification and experience in teaching biology at the high school level.
