Midunit Assesment 2 Flashcards
Angiosperm
has extra layer (carpel)
Monophyletic
Coming from the same node, can’t leave anything out
Cnidaria
jellyfish
Arthropoda
exoskeleton that has to molt to grow
Mollusca
snail, clam, squid, has radula (scraping tongue)
Chordata
vertebrates (notochord)
Stomata
“mouth” of the cell, controls what comes in and out of the cell
What would happen if you blocked the stomata?
Photosynthesis would decrease because there wouldn’t be enough CO2 in the cell
Facilitated Diffusion
requires transport proteins but still moves down gradient and doesn’t need energy
Gastrula
cells migrate inward to form a fold
Collagen
molecules are bundled like steel wires in a cable, in muscles, the fibers that create muscles (unique to animals)
Co-evolution
species influence each other (insects and flowers)
Pollination
the transfer of pollen from male to female plant (transfer across 2 genetically different plants)
Carpel
the extra layer surrounding angiosperms
Gymnosperms
naked seeds, developing seed
Endocytosis
the taking in of matter by a living cell by invagination of its membrane to form a vacuole
Exocytosis
a process by which the contents of a cell vacuole are released to the exterior through fusion of the vacuole membrane with the cell membrane
Seed
a baby plant in a box with its lunch
Xylem
moves water and dissolved minerals in and out of the cell
Phloem
moves food in and out of the cell
Stomata
controls water loss, the “mouth” of plants, controls what comes in and out of the cell
Angiosperm
have an extra layer (carpel) surrounding the seeds- are able to reproduce easily and have a protective coating around the seeds
