1. The document compares different classifications of weeds including by origin, habitat, life span, and stem structure.
2. Weeds are classified based on whether they are native or introduced species, their habitat as upland or lowland, their life span as annual, biennial, or perennial, and their stem structure as herbaceous or woody.
3. Examples are given for common weed types like goosegrass, crabgrass, crowfoot grass, malvastrum, and purple nutsedge to illustrate the different classifications and characteristics.
