flowers.• Fruits form around the seeds to protect

them, and they can be hard or soft.

FLOWERING AND NON FLOWERING PLANTS

Most plants are flowering plants.These plants produce different types of seeds.

Non flowering plants, like ferns and mosses, do no produce seeds, they use SPORES to reproduce

Ferns have spores which are like small brown spots under their leaves.

Mosses reproduce with spores that grow inside capsules.
