Q

Oviparous vs ovoviviparous

A

Oviparous animals lay eggs
ovoviviparous animals the egg develops inside the animal.

18
Q

Monotremes vs Marsupials vs Placentals

A

Egg-laying mammals

Pouched animals that give birth to underdeveloped embryos that climb into mother’s pouch.

Mother carries the fetus which is nourished via the placenta .

19
Q

Metamorphosis

A

A series of physiological changes that transform the larvae into an adult.

20
Q

Amniotic egg

A

Internal wet environment.

Amniotic cavity with amniotic fluid an yolk sac for nutrients

Tough shell prevents liquid loss and protects.

21
Q

Bryophyta (Mosses)

A

Non vascular,

Gametophyte dominant

Flagellated sperm

Spores

22
Q

Monilophyta (Ferns)

A

Vascular

Sporophyte dominant

Flagellated sperm

Spores

Sori and sporangium

23
Q

Pinophyta (Conifers)

A

Vascular

Sporophyte dominant

Seeds

Woody ovulate cones

24
Q

Anthophyta (Flowering plants)

A

Vascular

Sporophyte dominant

Fertilization by animals

Seeds

25
Q

Vascular plants

A

Have vascular tubes to transport water and food.

Xylem and phloem.

26
Q

Plasmogamy

A

Two mycelia fuse

27
Q

Karyogamy

A

Two nuclei of the parents merge, zygote is diploid.

28
Q

Fern life cycle

A

Sporangia produce spores via meiosis

Spores germinate into the gametophyte via mitosis.

Antheridia produce flagellated sperm
Archegonia produce eggs.

29
Q

Seed plant key adaptations and evolution

A

Seeds are embryos with a supply of nutrients packaged in a protective coat.

Seeds can be dispersed.

Pollination replaces sperm cell swimming to egg.

30
Q

Gymnosperms vs Angiosperms

A

Naked seeds not enclosed in ovaries, seeds found within cones, wind pollinated, heterosporous (male & female)

flowering plants which produce seeds that develop inside of the ovaries. Pollinated by biotic or abiotic agents.

31
Q

Double fertilization

A

Discharge of two sperm from the pollen tube into the embryo sac.

One combines with egg other combine with the two polar nuclei creating food for embryo.

32
Q

How does fruit develop?

A

Seed develops from an ovule

Fruit develops when the ovary wall thickens.

33
Q

A

No symmetry

Filter feeders with intracellular digestion

34
