Sporophyte
Gymnosperms mostly have
Seeds
What are the two types of Angiosperms?
- Dicots
- Monocots

Alternation of Generations consists of
Two life cycles
What are the two life cycles found in the Alternation of Generations?
- Gametophyte (Haploid)
- Sporophyte (Diploid)
What are the two types of tissues found?
- Dermal
- Ground
Dermal Tissue consists of
Epidermis + Periderm
Dermal tissue functions to
Protect and prevent the loss of water
Ground tissue consists of
Parenchyma, Collenchyma + Sclerenchyma
Ground tissue allows for
Metabolism, storage + support
The Parenchyma is a ground tissue that allows for
Site of metabolism + photosynthesis
The Collenchyma is a ground tissue that allows for
Durable cells that provide support
The Sclerenchyma is a ground tissue that allows for
Woody portions of the cell that are extremely durable
The male part of the flower consists of the
Stamen and anther
The female part of the flower consists of the
Ovule
