AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Taxonomy, a branch of botany, is defined as the systematic classification, naming, and identification of plants. This orderly system arranges related plants with similar characteristics into groups called taxa and uses a convention called bionomial nomenclature to give a unique name to one group of plants.

Detailed explanation-2: -While there are many ways to structure plant classification, one way is to group them into vascular and non-vascular plants, seed bearing and spore bearing, and angiosperms and gymnosperms. Plants can also be classified as grasses, herbaceous plants, woody shrubs, and trees.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plant identification (taxonomy) uses anatomical and morphological clues to compare known plants with unknown plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plant divisions classify plants based on whether they reproduce by spores or seeds. Spore-bearing plants include ferns, club mosses, and horsetail. Seed-bearing plants are divided into gymnosperms and angio-sperms. plants that produce naked seeds.
