Sexual Reproduction In Flowering Plants Flashcards
The long and slender stock called
Filament
The terminally generally bilobed structure called
Anther
The proximal end of the filament is attached to the
Thalamus or the petal of the flower
A typical angiosperm answer is
Bilobed with each lobe, having too Theca
How many sides are there in an anther
Four sides, tetragonal
How are these two theca are separated?
By longitudinal groove
How many microsporangia are there in an anther ?
4
These microsporangia developed into
Pollen sacs
What are the four walls of an microsporangium?
Epidermis endothecium , middle layer, Tapetum
The outer three layers of the microsporangium helps in
Dehiscence and protection
Which layer provides the nourishment to the pollen grains?
Tapetum
The dense cytoplasm of tapetum contains more than one
Nucleus
When an anther is Young, a group of compact cells are called
Sporogenous tissue
Some of the sporogenous tissue are capable to go under meiotic division are called
Pollen Mother cell diploid
After the meiosis of pollen Mother cell, how many cell will form?
There will be four cell, which will be call micropore tetrad
What is the ploidy level of microspore tetra?
Haploid
The formation of micropore through pollen mother cells
Micro sporogenesis
60% angiosperm does their 2nd mitosis
After pollination
What is the diameter of pollen grain?
25 to 50 micrometer
The outer layer of an pollen grain is made up of what?
Sporopolleninn
Wherever The sporopollenin is absent
There is germ pore
The inner most layer of an pollen grain is made up of
Cellulose
and pectin
The pollen viability of some cereals or rice and wheat
30 minutes
The member of rosacea leguminoseam and solanaceae
Months
Where to Store pollen grains grains for years
Liquid nitrogen in -1 96°C
