Q

alteration of generations

A

multicellular haploid and diploid generations take turns producing each other

sporophyte (2N) -> (meiosis) spores (N) -> (growth and mitosis) gametophyte (N) -> (Mitosis) Gametes ->Fertilization and growth -> sporophyte (2N)

Q

4 components of a complete flower

structure and function

A

sepals - reprodcutive (male), enclose and protect unopened floral buds, more leafy in appearance

petals - sterile, most brightly colored (advertise)

stamens - sterile

carpels - reproductive (female, has ovary (ovules), stulye,stigma (capture pollen) - pistil (collective term)

all attached to receptacle

Q

male gametophyte

origin and structure

A

pollen grain - consists of 2 haploid cells

generative cell

tube cell - pollen tube, delivers sperm to female gametophyte

and spore wall

pollen grain develops within the microsporangia (pollen sacs) of anthers at the tips of the stamens

microsporocyte (2N) -> (meiosis) 4 microspores (n) -> (Mitosis) 4 pollen grains (N)

male gametophyte develops inside anther

Q

female gametophyte

origin and structure

A

embryo sac

ovule becomes seed

develops in ovule (megasporangium)

megasporocyte (2N) -> (meiosis) 1 megaspore (really 4, but only 1 survives) -> (mitosis) embryo sac

Q

Pollination

A

transfer of pollen from an anther to a stigma

wind, water, animals

occurs when pollen grain lands on stigma and germinates.

Q

fate of each of the two sperm within a mature male gametophyte and how the sperm reach the ovule

A

one sperm fertilizes the egg, forming the zygote

the other sperm combines with the 2 polar nuclei of the embryo sac’s large central cell, forming a triploid cell that develops into the nutritive tissue called endosperm

the sperm reach the ovule by traveling down the pollen tube that forms when the pollen is germinated

Q

function of seed dormancy. first step in the germination of the seed

Q

two regions of undifferentiated tissue in plant

A

meristematic tissue (=to animal stem cells) (found in the Apical Meristem (tissue at top of plant covered by leaves) and lateral mersitem)

horizontal stems (stolons (runners) on top, rhizomes, underground) -this can produce large clones

Q

Examples of alteration of generations (moss, ferns, angiosperms)

A

moss - gametophyte is most conspicuous stage (what you see)

ferns and angiosperms - sporophyte (2n) is more conspicuous, gametophyte is at base, gametophyte stage is very reduced

Q

Fertilization in angiosperms

A
  1. generative cell (haploid) within pollen grain divides by mitosis (2 sperm)
  2. pollen tube grows, carrying 2 sperm
  3. double feritilization

if the egg is fertilized, the ovule develops into seed and ovary into fruit.

21
Q

seed development

A

some or all the resources of the endosperm are diverted to cotyledons (monocots , corn, dicots - bean - both types of angiosperms)

22
Q

3 process of plant development

A
  1. growth
  2. differentiation
  3. morphogenesis
23
Q

two components of plant growth

A
  1. cell division
  2. cell expansion (ezymatic cleavage allows cellulose fibers to spread and expand)

both canges tend to be in one direction

most size increase due to cell expansion

24
Q

cellular differentiation

A

determined by position rather than lineage

correlated with chemical gradients

25
Q

aukin

A

inhibits axillary buds (cut off top, no inhibiton of axillary buds)
