heterosporous
what is homospory
what is heterospory

seed coat
outside of bean
Cotyledons
bean half shaped first leavesep
Epicotyl
first real bean leaves
hypocotyl
becomes bean stem
radicle
becomes bean root
4 phylums of gymnosperms
cycadophyta, ginkgophyta, gnetophyta, coniferophyta
what is xylem
in seedless vascular plants, for water and minerals
only flows from roots up
wha tis phloem
in seedless vascular plants, for carbs and other nutrients
flows in any direction
4 phylums of seedless vascular platns
lycophyta, psilophyta, arthrophta, pterophta
3 nonvascular plant phyla
Bryophyta, hepatophtya, anthocerophyta
what is the largest group of seedless vascular plants
pterophtya
When the celery stalk was planted in a dye water, where all was dye found
only the xylem
can leaves take water through the pores?
no
Typically, flowering plants endosperm is ______ (_n)
triploid (3n)
the primary role of fruits is to ___
disperse seeds
In pollen development in flowering plants, a haploid microspore produced via meiosis undergoes ____ to make a __-celled pollen grain
mitosis; 2-celled
flowering plants are all in the phylum
anthophyta
embryo sac
mature female gametophyte
double fertilization
one sperm fertilizes egg to make zygote and the other fertilizes polar bodies to makes 3n endosperm (for food)
what does angiosperms mean
“seed in vessel”
what are the 2 major clades of the phylum Anthophyta
Monocots: 1 seed leaf (cotyledon), 3 flower parts, Parallel venation of vasc tissue
Eudicots: 2 seed leaf, 4/5 flower parts, leaves w netlike venation of vasc tissue
What is a cotyledon
seed leaf
what are the parts of the ovary wall of fruits? what is the ovary wall called?
Ovary wall: Pericarp
Exocarp: outerwall
mesocarp
endocarp: inner wall next to seed
If material outside of ovary is included, the fruit is an _______
accessory fruit
3 forms of fruit:
simple: derived from 1 pistil
aggregate: from separate carpels on one flower
multiple: from multiple flowers
2 types of dry fruit
dehiscent: splits open at maturity
indehiscent: doesn’t split
Male part of flower=
Female=
Male= anther
Female= ov
one or more carpels=
pistil
Flowerparts attached to receptacle in 4 _____.
what are the 4 parts
whorls
calyx- sepals (calyx means cover)
corolla- petals (think of a car)
androecium- stamens (male)
gynoecium- carpels (female_
Complete, incomplete, perfecrt, and imperfect flowers
Com: calyx+corolla+androecium+gynoecium
incom: 1+ whorls missing
perf: both androecium and gynoecium
imperf: missing andro or gyno
connation vs adnation
conn: fused within a whorl
adnation: fusing btw whorls
what are the “seed leaves” that are part of a dormant embryo in a seed
cotyledon
what are apical meristems
the growing tips of roots and stems
What life cycle do all sexual reproducing fungi have
zygotic meiosis
what are the conditions from growing in the dark called?
etiolation
what is an example of etiolation
longer stem for plants grown in the dark
sac fungi are characterized by having the products of meiosis formed in the _____
ascus
what acid is used in lab 6 to show the effect on dwarf and tall corn/pea plants
gibberellic acid
These are three locomotive structures associated with protists
Flagella, cilia, pseudopoida
Phylum of large, multicellular
marine algae whose pigments are
especially efficient in absorbing the
green, violet, and blue light that penetrates into the deepest ocean
waters.
Rhodophyta (Red alge)
Marine ameboids that secrete tiny calcareous tests
Foraminiferans
What phylum are liverwarts
Hepatophyta
This phylum contains only 1 living
genus with 15 species
arthrophyta
A cone-like structure that consists
of a cluster of sporophyllls
Strobilus
Root-like structures in nonvascular plants
rhizoids
Term for separate male and female
sporophytes
Dioecious
Called “naked seed plants”
because seeds are not covered by fruit
Gymnosperms
Food source inside the seed for the
dormant embryonic plant
endosperm
These aid in the dispersal of spores
elaters
