Plants are very dynamic things, despite their sedate reputation. They have exciting lives, they make their own food - at least some of them do, and they do humans a big service by consuming carbon dioxide and producing oxygen. Most of the plants in the plant kingdom have tubes that carry water and nutrients throughout the body of the plant. This kind of water-nutrient transportation is called the vascular system. Plants that do not have these are called nonvascular plants.

Some vascular plants that have seeds are called gymnosperms. Some of the most common gymnosperms are conifer trees — pine, cedar, spruce, and redwood. These kinds of trees are also evergreens, able to keep their needles even in the cold months of winter.
