  • Cell walls consist of chitin, a nitrogen-containing polysaccharide
  • Can be parasites or saprobes that absorb products broken down by digestive enzymes they secrete.
  • Many parasitic fungi have hyphae called haustoria that penetrate their host.

85
Q

What is the advantage of plants developing ovaries?

In the most advanced plant division, the Anthophyta, gametophytes are enclosed and protected inside an ovary.

86
Q

What is the advantage of plant adaptations to seasonal variations in water and light?

A

Plants of the Coniferophyta and Anthophyta have adapted to variation in water and light. For example, some plants are deciduous (shed leaves to minimize water loss during slow-growing/dormant seasons. Desert annuals germinate, grow, flower, and produce seeds within brief growing periods in response to a spring rain.

87

Q

What are bryophytes?

A

The plant division consisting of mosses, liverworts, and hornworts.

  • Gametes produced by protective structures called gametangia on the surface of gametophytes, the dominant haploid stage of the life cycle of bryophytes.
  • The male gametangium, or antheridium (p: antheridia) produces flagellated sperm that swims through water to fertilize eggs produced by the female gametangium, or archegonium (p: archegonia).
  • The zygote grows into a diploid structure, still connected to the gametophyte. In mosses, this structure is a stalk bearing a capsule which contains haploid spores produced by meiosis. The spores are dispersed by wind, germinate, and grow into haploid gametophytes.
  • Lack xylem and phloem, so they must remain small and water must absorb through surface tissues and be used as a medium for sperm transport.
90
Q

A

Part of the plant division pterophyta

  • include woody trees common during Carboniferous period and extant herbaceous plants
  • have hallow, ribbed stems jointed at nodes, which occur at intervals along the stem and produce small, scalelike leaves, and in some species, branches (bushy branches give appearance of a horsetail)

  • strobili bear the spores
95
Q

96
Q

What are whisk ferns?

A

98
Q

What are microsporangia?

A

Plant structures that produce microspores (male spores).

  • produce numerous microspore mother cells, which divide by meiosis to produce 4 haploid cells (microspores)
  • microspores mature into pollen grains (male gametophyte generation)
  • pollen grain divides into 3 cells (flower plants) or 4 cells (in conifers), one cell is a vegetative, or tube, cell that controls growth of pollen tube, and the others become sperm cells
99
Q

What are macrosporangia?

A

Plant structures that produce macrospores (female spores)
AKA nucellus
-produces a megaspore mother cell, which divides by meiosis into 4 haploid cells, one of which survives to become the megaspore and represent the female gametophyte generation
-megaspore divides by mitosis to produce one egg (flowering plants) or two eggs (conifers)
-other accessory cells may also be produced
-one or two tissue layers called integuments surround the megasporangium
-collectively, integuments, nucellus, and megaspore daughter cells are called the ovule
-micropyle: opening through the integuments for pollen access to egg
