Test 1- Kingdoms Flashcards
Are plants multicellular?
Yes
Phloem
Vascular tissue that transports sugar and nutrients throughout the plant
Xylem
Vascular tissue that transports water throughout a plant
What does water provide for protistan seaweed?
- a buoyancy effect; holds the Protista upright
- abundance of water
- Nutrients
Where do large multicellular protistan seaweed live?
Aquatic environments
Chlorophyll a and b
Found in the chloroplast and used in photosynthesis
What is the primary food source of plants (storage)
Starch
Autotrophic
Undergo photosynthesis to make its own foods (sugars)
Are plants eukaryotic or prokaryotic
Eukaryotic (the cells have a nucleus)
Cellulose
Material which the plant cell wall s made of
Anamalia classification
- heterotrophic
- multicellular
- eukaryotic cells
- no cell wall
- only kingdom with nervous and muscle tissues
- most organisms reproduce sexually
Taxon grouping of animals based on:
Body symmetry
Presence and development of body cavity coelom
MOST animals with movement have..
Bilateral symmetry
Sense organs at the front end
Plants need these to obtain water
Roots
Vascular tissue
How do plants get the structural support that they need?
Cellulose and tough lignin(chemical compound) from their cell wall
Plants prevent water loss in air by:
Waxy cuticle (layer)
Stomata, small pored under leaves that open and close
Photosynthesis
Plants reproductive strategy
Pollen
Nectar
Fruit
Seeds
Photosynthesis
How plants obtain their food:
Sunlight + CO2 + H2O –> O2 + C6H12O6
Major plant phyla groups
Protista: chlorophyta: not a plant Bryophyta: low growing mosses Pteridophyta: ferns, spores Coniferophyta: pine tree Anthophyta: deciduous ( a tree that sheds its leaves annually): maple
Protista
Are mostly single celles but always eukaryotes
Amoebozoa
Phyla of Protista that has pseudopodia (arms)
Ciliophora
Phyla of Protista w rigid shape pellicle(a thin skin or membrane) and
Cilia abundant
Plant like
Phyla of Protista containing chlorophyll, is autotrophic, is the cause of 50-75% of all photosynthesis on earth have cell walls algae
