Q

Life cycle of pine (male)

A

1) Pollen cones contain microsporophyll which contain microsporangia
2) Within the microsporangia there are cells called microsporocytes that go through meiosis to make microspores
3) Microspores turn into pollen grain(n) which have male gametophyte

21
Q

Life cycle of pine (female)

A

1) Ovulate cones contain Megasporophylls(2n) that bear megasporangia(2n) and stem tissue
2) The megasporocytes in the megasporangia go through meiosis to produce haploid megaspores
3) Megaspores develop into female gametophytes which are retained in the megasporangia

22

Single Phylum: Anthophyta
Flower and fruits

30
Q

What is the purpose of Flowers?

A

Angiosperm meant for sexual reproduction

31
Q

4 Floral organs

A

Sepals
Petals
Stamens
Carpel

32
Q

Sepals characteristics (3)

A

Enclose the flower
protect unopened floral buds
resemble leaves

33
Q

explain the coloration of Petals

A

Bright color to attract pollinators or no color if wind pollinated

34
Q

Stamens characteristics(2)

A

1) Male reproductive organs
2) Contain filament, with a sac called anther

35
Q

Carpels characteristics(2)

A

1) Female Reproductive organs
2) Has an ovary at the base of a style leading up to stigma (where pollen is received)
Fertilized ovules develop into seeds

36
Q

What do Stamens contain?

A

Contain filament, with a sac called anther

37
Q

What are microspores

A

produced in anthers, develop into pollen grains containing male gametophytes

38
Q

What is an Anther

A

sac on the stamen, produces and holds microspores (pollen)

39
Q

What are Pistil

A

Single carpel or two or more fused carpels

40
Q

Radial Symmetry

A

Any imaginary line through the central axis divides the flower into two equal parts

41
Q

Bilateral Symmetry

A

Flower can only be divided into two equal parts by a single imaginary line

42
Q

When do Fruits form? What is its function?

A

Formed when ovary wall thickens and matures
Protects seeds and aid in dispersal

43
Q

Male gametophytes located where on Angiosperms

A

In pollen grains produced by the microsporangia of anther

44
Q

Female gametophyte located where on angiosperms

A

Within an ovule within an ovary at the base of a stigma

45
Q

Micropyle

A

Ovule is entered through a pore called the micropyle

46
Q

Double Fertilization

A

when pollen tube discharges two sperm into the female gametophyte within an ovule

47
Q

What starts the development of endosperm

A

One Sperm must fertilize the egg, the other combines with two polar nuclei in the central cell of female gametophyte

48
Q
