exam2/quiz4 Flashcards
Proof of taxonomy?
cellulose synthesizing rings, plants + chlorophytes, flagellated sperm.
linear functions of cellulose synthesis, other green algae and red algae.
anatomy of fern
leaflet: individual leaf
sori: sporangium making spores
fiddleheads: new fronds
frond: whole leaf
anatomy of flowers
petals: attract pollinators
stigma: accepts pollen
filaments: male, pollen producing structure.
ovary: becomes fruit
ovule: seed
sepal: leaf at the bottom
Archaeplastida taxonomy
red algae
chlorophytes
charophytes
plants
plant taxonomy
charophytes(algae)
bryophyte(mosses, basal taxon)
monilophytes(confers)
angiosperm(monocot, flowering plants)
angiosperm(dicot)
monocot angiosperms
one cotyledon
1. embryonic leaves = cotylectons
2. leaf variation patterns
- arrangement of vascular tissue
3. stem vascular arrangment
4. roots
- scattered, all equal diameter = lateral
5. pollen grain, one hole
6. # petals, multiples of 3
dicot angiosperms
two cotyledons
1. pin mate and palmate
2. roots
- rings
- taproot = unequal diameter
3. three holes
4. multiples of 5
