plants

Question 1

characteristics of fungi

Answer 1

eukaryotic
multicellular
chitin
sessile
heterotrophs
warmth, moisture and oxygen for growth

Question 2

structure of fungi

Answer 2

made up of hyphae
RHIZOIDS, anchor it absorb nutrients
MYCELLIUM, branching filaments
ASCENDING HYPHAE, filaments that grow up ending in reproductive structure

Question 3

nutrition of fungi

Answer 3

saprophytes, break down materials with enzymes
parasites living off a host
mutualistic, both organisms benefit

Question 4

pros and cons of fungi

Answer 4

PROS, decomposers, antibiotics, food source, monitor air quality
CONS, can cause disease, destroy food, poisonous

Question 5

traits of plants

Answer 5

multicellular, eukaryotic. autotrophic, cellulose, lacks mobilty,

Question 6

plants life cycle

Answer 6

gametophyte, gamete production
sporophyte, diploid or spore production

Question 7

plant adaptions to land

Answer 7

cuticle and stomata to retain moisture
vascular tissues to move nutrients and water, provide structure
reproduce without water

Question 8

non vascular plants or bryophytes traits

Answer 8

moss, liverworts, hornworts
no transport system
no vascular tubes to transport nutrients, need moist habitat
no support
no true roots stems or leaves
rely on osmosis
need water for reproduction
gametophyte is dominant

Question 9

vascular plants or tracheophytes traits

Answer 9

true terrestrial plants
contain vascular tissue, xylem and phloem
cuticle to reduce water loss

Question 10

difference between xylem and phloem

Answer 10

xylem transports water
phloem transports food and nutrients

Question 11

traits of sporophyta or seedless plants

Answer 11

have vascular tissue
rhizome instead of stem and leafy fronds
depend on water for reproduction
sporophyte is dominant

Question 12

traits of gymnosperms

Answer 12

naked seed protected by cones
thin needles for retaining moisture
no water for reproduction
sporophyte is dominant

Question 13

trait of angiosperms

Answer 13

flowering plants
monocots or dicots
flower is the gametophyte
seeds produced on ovary
can clone themselves
sporophytes is dominant

Question 14

difference between dicot and monocot

Answer 14

MONOCOT, veins are parallel, vascular bundles complexly arranged, fibrous roots, multiples of three
DICOTS, veins are netlike, vascular bundles in ring, taproot, multiples of 4 or 5

Question 15

what is a imperfect fungi

Answer 15

they reproduce asexually and have no know process of sexual reproduction, will be reclassified if they have method of reproduction
