Diversity of Life II Flashcards
Which plant species has no vascular tissues?
Chlorophytes
Which plant species has unicellular embryos?
Chlorophytes
Gymnosperms
Produce seeds, but no flowers/fruit
Angiosperms
Produce seeds + flowers/fruit
Protostome
Mouth develops before anus
Deuterostome
Anus develops first, mouth second
Genotype frequency = frequency of Aa / ?
total population size
Allele frequency = frequency of A / ?
gene pool size
2 chromosomes of each type in a cell
diploid
one type of each chromosome per cell
haploid (gametes,spores)
Multicellular, diploid plant that grows from the zygote
sporophyte
Sporophytes produce _ by way of _
spores; meiosis
Haploid plant
gametophyte
Gametophytes produce _ by way of _
gametes; mitosis
Exchange between diploid, spore producing phase and haploid, gamete producing phase
alternation of generations
Mosses, land plants, need moist habitats, lack tracheids (specialized tissue for water transport)
nontracheophyte plants
Which generation of nontracheophytes is more common?
gametophyte
Well adapted to terrestrial habitats, vascular, transport systems for water and to conduct nutrients
tracheophytes
Club mosses, have roots, stems & leaves, leaves have only one unbranched vein
lycophytes
Types of tracheophytes
lycophytes, pterophytes, seed-bearing vascular plants (angio & gymnosperms)
