Practical Lab Quiz 1 Flashcards
What type of growth do Schizaea have?
Indeterminate Growth
Hymenophylloidae
-Filmy ferns -primitive -under the order of filicales
Gleichenia -Does the stem (rhizome) have a protostele or siphonostele
It is a protostele due to no pith is present and there is a prescence of an endodermis
In Lygodium (Old World Climbing Fern), the stem (rhizome) does it have a protostele or a siphonostele?
Protostele
Osmunda anatomy: sporangia, indusium, etc
1) Sporangia is not in a sorus 2) Absent indusium 3) Small number of spores due to it being a leptosporangium 4) Homosporous 5) Bipinnate compound leaves 6) Depends on the plant, but there can be separate fertile and sterile segments
Schizaea anatomy: sporangia, indusium, etc
1) Separate fertile and sterile segments 2) Compound leaves
Gleichenia anatomy: sporangia, indusium, etc
1) Compound-pinnate leaves 2) Sporangia is in a sorus 3) Absent indusium 4) Small number of spores due to it being a leptosporangium 5) Homosporous
Gleicheniacea
Staghorn ferns -primitive -under the order of filicales
Cyatheoidaea
Tree ferns -primitive -under the order of filicales
Osmundaceae
Royal ferns -primitive -under the order of filicales
Hymenophyllum anatomy: sporangia, indusium, etc
1) Epiphyte 2) Sporangia in sori 3) Indusium is present 4) Compound-pinnate leaves 5) Homosporous 6) Leptosporangium
Cyathea anatomy: sporangia, indusium, etc
1) Compound-pinnate leaves 2) Sporangia in a sorus underneath the leaf 3) Leptosporangium 4) Homosporous 5) Indusium is present
What are filmy ferns? -membranous leaf
-Very thin translucent tissue of the fronds -Leaves are one cell thick and lack a stomata -Absence of sclerenchyma tissues to support the mature side of the plant
Schizaeaceae
-Climbing ferns -primitive -under the order of filicales
