Chapter 26 Flashcards
vascular seeded plants with NO flowers
gymnosperms
the four types of gymnosperms
cyclidophytes
ginkophytes
gnetophytes
coniferphytes
vascular seeded plants WITH flowers
angiosperms
- 1 leaf in seed
- parallel veins
- petals in 3
- diffuse vascular
monocot
- 2 leaf in seed
- networked veins
- petals in 4/5
- bundled vascular
dicot
megaspores –>
female gametophytes
microspores –>
male gametophytes
girl parts of the flower
carpel
stigma, style, ovary
boy parts of the flower
stamen
anther, filament
protects ovules within ovary, promotes efficient pollen transfer
flower
enhances seed dispersal, protects dormant seed
fruit
both male and female reproductive organs are present
monoecious
only a male OR a female reproductive organ is present
dioecious
seeded vascular plant with no flowers
gymnosperms
4 types of gymnosperms
cyclidophytes, glinkophytes, gnetophytes, coniferphytes
gymnosperm life cycle
ovules born “exposed” on sporophylls, pollen typically carried by wind
type of gymnosperm
herbal medicine, flagellated sperm
phylum ginkophyta
type of gymnosperm
fern or palm-like fronds radiate from central stem, central female or male cones with flagellated sperm
phylum cycadophyta
type of gymnosperm
3 distinct genera, male and female strobili
phylum gnetophyta
type of gymnosperm
most diverse, cone bearers, located in high altitudes, most are evergreen with needle-like leaves
phylum coniferytes
