review 1B Flashcards
flowers are (3)
- are reproductive structures
- attract pollinators
- are the site at which seeds are produced
T or F
fleshy fruits attract animals for seed dispersal
true
seeds (4)
-have plant embryo
-produced in flower
-low water content
-have to experience specific conditions to germinate
what part produces pollen
anther
what part produces the female gametophyte, which produces egg
ovule
what part houses the ovule
ovary
within the ovule of the carpel: (4)
mega
- the megasporocyte produces the megaspore
- the megaspore produces the female gametophyte
- the female gametophyte produces the egg
- the female gametophyte produces two polar nuclei
pollen production in angiosperms (4)
micro
microspores are produced in the microsporangia
the microspores develops into the male gametophyte
the male gametophyte is the pollen grain
the generative cell in the pollen grain divides to form two sperm cells
Which of the following occurs in double fertilization in angiosperms.
one sperm cell fertilizes the egg, and one fertilizes the endosperm
the two sperm cells fertilize the two polar nuclei
one sperm cell fertilizes the egg, and one fertilizes the two polar nuclei
the two polar nuclei fertilize the egg
the two polar nuclei fertilize the endosperm
one sperm cell fertilizes the egg, and one fertilizes the two polar nuclei
T or F
endosperm provides nutrition for the developing plant
true
T or F
The shoot system in plants stores starch and absorbs water and minerals.
false, the root system
in plants guard cells do what
regulate the opening and closing of stomata
in plants, parenchyma cells:
may carry out photosynthesis or store starch
in plants, phloem: (3)
includes
transports sugars
has two way flow
includes sieve tubes and companion cells
in xylem, tracheids (5)
transport water, narrow, have ONLY pits, present in vascular plants, one way flow
T or F
cell membranes filter water
true
water travelling the apoplastic route
moves around cells but is stopped by the Casparian strip
Each of the following is true about water transport in plants EXCEPT
water molecules in xylem are held together by hydrogen bonds
evaporation of water from the meniscus in the leaves creates a pulling force called tension that pulls water upward
evaporation of water from leaves is called transpiration
energy from ATP is required to move water through xylem
NOT TRUE: energy from ATP is required to move water through xylem
use energy from sun
In phloem loading involving movement of sugars from a leaf cell to the sieve tube, which of the following occurs by active transport?
movement of sugars out of the leaf cell
movement of sugars into the companion cell near the leaf cell
movement of sugars from the companion cell to the sieve tube through plasmodemata
all of the above
movement of sugars from the companion cell near the leaf cell
requires active transport
what occurs in bulk flow of phloem sap through the sieve tube
water pressure builds in the sieve tube
macronutrients are needed in _____ amounts
large
limiting nutrients are
nutrients that are likely to be depleated from the soil and may limit plant growth and reproduction
mobile nutrients move ____
move away from the dying parts of a plant to other parts
N, P, S, Na+, K+, Ca++, Mg++
what group
macronutrients
