Structure and Function: Roots anchor the plant in the ground and absorb water and mineral nutrients from the ground. The following is a diagram of the external anatomy of a typical flowering plant: Phyla: The phyla in the kingdom Plantae include: Ginkgophyta, Lycophyta (lower ferns like club mosses), Pterophyta (ferns), Psilophyta (whisk ferns), Anthophyta (flowering plants), Gnetophyta, Sphenophyta, Coniferophyta (conifers), Cycadophyta (cycads), Sphenophyta, and Bryophyta (mosses, liverworts, hornworts).

Periodic Table of the Elements by WebElements Periodic Table Displays We are very pleased to announce the availability of a new line of periodic table displays which we are producing in partnership with Theodore Gray in the USA. These large installations are intended for public access in museums, science centers and other locations where the elements are a subject of interest. The first of these displays was recently installed at DePauw University in Indiana (see story on the right). Scroll down to explore each element in the display. Three things make these displays more than just a collection of elements. Secondly, we have designed the installation to be interactive with built-in touch sensors. The third significant feature of these large displays is quite simply that they are beautiful objects in their own right.
