Q

Asexual reproduction in Fungi

A

Asexual spores - cells identical to parent that spread via win then sprout
Budding - Smaller cell develops while attached to parent
Fragmentation - Part of the mycelium breaks off and forms a new fungi

Q

Sexual reproduction

A

Meiosis, but there’s no male or female
Hyphae fuse and create haploid spores which are dispersed by air currents and will germinate in a suitable environment

Q

Ascomycota (sac fungi)

A

75% of fungi
develop sacs while breeding

17
Q

Basidiomycota (Club fungi)

A

Common mushroom

18
Q

Seedless non vascular

A

Mosses Liverwort Hornworm

19
Q

Seedless Vascular

A

Ferns Horsetails Club Mosses

20
Q

Gymnosperms

A

Ginkos Yews Pine

21
Q

Monocot

A

Seed with 1 part
Fibrous root
Parallel veins in leaves
Vascular bundles are random
Petals in groups of 3

22
Q

Dicot

A

2 parts to seed
branched veins in leaf
flower parts in 4s and 5e
Tap root
Vascular bundles are in a ring

23
Q

Plant Classification

A

Seedless non-vascular
Seedless vascular
Gymnosperm
Angiosperm

24
Q

Angiosperm

A

flowering plants with enclosed seed

25
Gymnosperm
Plant with exposed seed
26
Sexual Reproduction
Seedless - sperm swims to egg, adapted for wet environments repodiction Seeded - adapted for dry environment reproduction
27
Angiosperms Structure
Pistil - female reproductive part Petal - colourful structure that attracts pollinators Sepal - encloses and protects flower Stamen - male reproductive part
28
Self Pollination
Anther falls onto flowers own stigma undesirable prevention - stigma above stamen
29
Cross Pollination
Anther falls onto stigma of a different type of flower desirable, increase variation
30
Wind pollination
anthers are exposed so they are easily blown away to a stigma stigmas are feather so they can catch an anther
31
Insect pollination
Adapted to attract insects that with carry anther to a stigma
