Q

sexual reproduction advantages

A

variety

17
Q

sexual reproduction disadvantages

A

-bad genetics
-energy + time for mate
-slow

18
Q

sexual reproduction cell division by …

A

meiosis

19
Q

asexual reproduction cell division by …

A

mitosis

20
Q

role of pollen tube

A

-tube grows down style
-enters the ovary
-tube enters via micropyle
-transports male gamete

21
Q

germination

A

sequence of events that take place when the embryo in a seed develops into a plant

22
Q

cotyledon

A
  • starch store
23
Q

plumule

A

embryo shoot

24
Q

radicle

A

embryo root

25
Q

testa

A

tough seed root

26
Q

micropyle

A

hole made by pollen shoot

27
Q

why does water need to enter seed

A

-activates enzymes
-so it can digest stored fat

28
Q

Why do seeds need to be dispersed away from the parent plant?

A

Redues:
- overcrowding
- competition
For:
-water
-light
-minerals

29
Q

Plant fertilisation process (5 marks)

A
  • pollen grain lands on stigma
  • grows pollen tube down style
  • enters ovary via micropyle
  • nucleus of pollen grain travels down pollen tube
  • fuses with egg inside the ovule
  • ovule becomes the seed
30
Q

Germination WOW (water)

A
  • activate enzymes like amylase and protease
  • which digest stored starch and proteins (in cotyledon)
31
Q

Germination WOW (oxygen)

A
  • for release of energy for germination
  • through respiration
32
Q

Germination WOW (warmth)

A
  • for enzymes to work effectively
  • higher temp means more kinetic energy
  • greater chance of collisions between ES complexes
  • therefore more reactions
