Open in App
Solution

Kingdom Plantae:

  1. The Kingdom Plantae encompasses all plants.
  2. They are eukaryotic, multicellular, and autotrophic creatures.
  3. The cell wall of a plant is stiff.
  4. Plants have chloroplasts and chlorophyll pigment, which are both necessary for photosynthesis.
  5. They are still.
  6. They are referred to as autotrophs since they create their own nourishment.
  7. They reproduce either sexually or asexually by vegetative propagation.
  8. A plant cell contains both an exterior cell wall and a big central vacuole.

The plant kingdom may help us in a number of ways.

  1. Photosynthesis is the process through which plants transform solar energy into food (carbohydrates).
  2. They are the main producers on whom we rely for food. We, like animals, either consume plants directly (for example, fruits, and vegetables) or indirectly by devouring animals. Plants, as a result, provide humans with food.
  3. Plants, like mammals, absorb CO2 while producing oxygen.
  4. They are the principal source of oxygen in the atmosphere and also contribute to the regulation of carbon dioxide levels.
  5. Plants are vital to human life since we all require oxygen to thrive.
  6. Plants also aid in soil erosion prevention and soil protection.
  7. Plants also provide us with wood, which has a wide range of human purposes.
  8. Many plants have therapeutic characteristics and are employed in the pharmaceutical business.
