Answer:
Land plants are multicellular organisms that can be distinguished from other living things by a number of characteristics:
They make their own food. Plants are photosynthetic and contain a green pigment called chlorophyll, which enables plants to convert energy from the sun into food. Plants store their food as starch.
Most plants are rooted to one place – some plants can orientate leaves towards the sun and some respond to touch.
Plant cell walls are rigid as they’re made of cellulose.
The life cycle of plants includes both a sporophyte and a gametophyte generation. The two generations alternate, each giving rise to the other. This is called ‘alternation of generations'.
