Plants are often _________________ according to the structures that they have in common. One of the
most basic structures used to classify plants is a series of tubes for transporting water and nutrients in
plants called a _________________ system. _________________ plants such as mosses usually grow
close to the ground because they lack this system for moving water and nutrients from their roots to
their extremities.

The vascular plants can be further grouped into two groups according to whether or not they make
_________________. _________________ plants such as ferns make spores instead of seeds. The seed
plants can also be further divided into two groups, the _________________ and the________________.
Angiosperms are plants that produce _________________. Gymnosperms such as _________________
and fir trees produce _________________ instead of flowers. The flowering plants can be further
classified according to their leaf and seed structure. Plants with branching veins in their leaves are called
_________________ and plants with parallel veins in their leaves are called _________________.
