Your Project is due on Wednesday May 22nd
Neatness and Creativity count!
Your project should be hand written and hand illustrated (except for your personal photos from the field trip)
Your project will be 10 pages:
page one- cover with your name, date, class and title of project " Plant Classification" . I would love to see a picture of you or your peers from the field trip on the cover!
page two- Moss with picture, characteristics and official classification from Domain down to species.
page three- Life cycle of moss- hand illustrated and labeled.
page four- Fern with picture, characteristics and official classification from Domain down to species.
page five- Life cycle of Ferns- hand illustrated and labeled.
page six- Gymnosperm with picture, characteristics and official classification from Domain down to species.
page seven- Life cycle of Gymnosperm- hand illustrated and labeled.
page eight- Angiosperm with picture, characteristics and official classification from Domain down to species.
page nine- Life cycle of Angiosperms- hand illustrated and labeled.
page ten- pictures of the other leaves that you took- you can put all 10 pictures or just 6 if you find that some are too similar.
Characteristics should include:
*description of the habitat where it is found along with an explanation of why it is found in that specific type of habitat (if relevant for the phyla).
*whether or not the plant is vascular or non- vascular and what that entails.
*One special note or piece of information that is unique to that phyla. For example; moss only obtain water through osmosis. Check your notes for this information.
Don't forget; the classification should follow: Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus,species and they should all be in Latin. The final species name should follow bi-nomial nomenclature and have a Genus and species term!
Felicitas my fellow Homo sapiens!
