Q

Characteristics of Bryophytes

A

-absence of true vascular tissue and lignin, small in size because of lack of structural support and lack of complex nutrient system
-absence of roots- water is absorbed trough the surface through rhizoids live in habitats rich in water
absence of true leaves

Q

Characteristics of life cycle in bryophytes

A

the sporophyte (2n) are unbranched
the gametophyte 1n stage is more larger and longer living .
Free living haploid stage is the most dominant stage of life, survival of sporophyte depends on gametophyte
sporophyte is physically attached to gametophyte and uses for nutrients

Q

Typical life cycle Gametophyte stage non vascular

A

Gametophyte multicellular 1n stage:
Haploid 1n spores are released
spores germinate into gametophytes-composed of protonema and gametophore
gametophytes mature as separate male and female plants and each produce gametes through mitosis
sperm travels to the archeridium from the antheridium through water

Q

Typical life cycle sporophyte stage non vascular

A

Diploid zygote is formed through fertilization and is nourished by the female gametophyte the zygote develops into a diploid embryo and then a diploid sporophyte all retained in the archegonium. The sporophyte matures into a sporangium and spores are produced through meiosis and then dispersed through the air.

Q

Characteristics of vascular plants

A

-vascular tissue in sporophyte. but not gametophyte

Q

Life cycle of vascular plants

A

haploid spores released and germinate into gametophytes which mature into male and female diploid zygote formed develops into sporophyte which matures in the archegonium and gametophyte dies off and sporophyte remains independent

Q

Gymnosperms

A

vascular plants with naked seeds
seeds are exposed on sporophylls that form stroboli
pollen and ovulate cones

21
Q

Phylums of gymnospersm

A

Cycadophyta- cycads are dioecious, flagellated sperm
Ginkophyta- fan shaped leaves
Gnetophyta- xylem contains vessel elements
Coniferophyta- largest division and xylem lacks vessel elements rely on wind to pollinate

22
Q

Angiosperm shared traits

A

Shared with land plants
-alternation of multicellular generations
Shared with seed plants
-sporophyte is the most dominant stage gametophyte are micro and depend on the sporophyte

23
Q

Features of angiosperm

A

3 Fs
Flowers, double fertilization and fruits synapomorphies

24
Q

Parts of the flower

A

sepals- sterile and modified leaf that protect the flower bud
petals- sterile attract pollinators
stamen- pollen producing stalk and anther
carpals- ovule producing ovary style and sigma one or more fused into a pistil

25
Q

Development of male gametophyte

A

Pollen grain consists of two celled gametophyte enclosed in sporopollen
microspores in micrsporangia pollen sac of anthers
generative cell-sperm nuclei
tube cell-pollen tube

26
Q

Development of female gametophyte

A

female gametophyte develops within the ovule of the ovary of the flower megaspores develop from megasporangium one functional megaspore formed and one polar nuclei

27
Q

pollination in angiosperms

A

tube cell produces pollen tube
generative cell produces two sperm nuclei by mitosis
pollen tube grows into ovary and releases sperm nuclei

28
Q

double fertilization

A

two sperm cells unite with two eggs to form zygote
one sperm fertilizes egg and creates diploid zygote and then second sperm combines with polar nuclei triploid cell which creates endosperm and nourishes embryo

29
Q

Post fertilization

A

embryo develops into a seed
ovary develops into a fruit-facilitates seed dispersal

30
Q

coevolution

A

many flower plants coevolve with certain pollinators

31
Q

angiosperm evolution

A

modified xylem with vessel tissues
rapid reproduction
coevloution with polinators

32
Q

angiosperm diversity

A

basal dicots
magnoliids
monocots
eudicots

33
Q

absorpitive nutrition

A

fungi get nutrients from absorbing nutrients outside of their bodies
absorptive heterotrophy
large and complex molecules are broken down by enzyme secreted by fungi
small molecules are just absorbed

34
Q

Hyphae

A

cylindrical, branched multicellular filaments that absorb nutrients
filled with cytoplasm and organelles
cell walls are composed of chitin

35
Q

A

yeasts and do not have a hyphae

36
Q

numerous nuclei dispersed ghrough hyphae

38
Q

reproduction of fungi

A

reproduce by producing a large number of spores asexually or sexually
spores are dispersal stage of life cycle
mitosis and meiosis

39
Q

Fungi life cycle

A

resemble those of dominant haploid eukaryotic organisms
diploid stage is transient
