Use a biology video to focus on four main groups of plants: bryophytes, ferns, gymnosperms, and anglosperms. It explains the parts of plants, life cyles, evolution of plants, and even touches upon sporophyte and gametophyte. 

This video explains the difference between gametophytes and sporophytes and uses this this information to teach the reproduction process of various vascular plants. Viewers see how ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms reproduce.
