. Biology and man. Biology; Human beings. CLASS 1 GYMNOSPERMS ("naked seed"). Naked-seed plants; include all the cone-bearing trees. Examples, cycads, ginkgo, sago palm, yews, larches, pines, cypress, spruces, cedars, sequoias. CLASS 2 ANGIOSPERMS ("enclosed seed"). Enclosed-seed plants; most of the familiar plants belong to this class; includes the broad-leaved trees, shrubs, grasses, herbs, vegetables, fruits, and farm crops. SUBCLASS 1 MONOCOTYLEDONS With one cotyledon; bundles scat- tered throughout the stem; parallel-veined leaves; flower parts usually in 3's or 6's. E

SUBCLASS 2 DICOTYLEDONS With two cotyledons; woody bundles arranged symmetrically in stem; net-veined leaves; flower parts usually in 4's or 5's (see illustration, p. 147). Order 1 Archichlamydeae ("primitive coat, or envelope"). Petals in flowers either quite separate or entirely lacking. Examples, catkin- bearing trees (willows, walnuts, oaks, beeches), smartweed, pink family, buttercup family, water lilies, rose family, parsley family, bean family.

B. MAIN GROUPS OF ANIMALS The main branches of animals and the subdivisions of the more important branches are outlined below. PHYLUM I PROTOZOA ("first animals"). The simplest animals; body of one cell; live for the most part in fresh or in sea water, but many species are parasitic in plants and animals. CLASS I SARCODINA ("flesh"). Body without definite shape; move by means of false feet, or pseudopods (see illustrations, pp. 23 and 25). CLASS 2 MASTIGOPHORA ("whi
