Gametangia
|
Protects gametes from drying out and protects the embryo from drying out.
|
|
waxy cuticle
|
hard lipid coating to protect from water, and losing water though creates gas exchange problem ex CO2
|
|
Stomata
|
structure that lets CO2 and water in and out o by bypassing the wax cuticle (Responds to plants needs)
|
|
What are character istics of Non-vascular plants?
|
cuticle and stomata
|
|
What adaptive feature let plants move to terrestrial environment?
|
Vascular Tissue
|
|
Vascular tissue
|
allows active transport of water and nutrients through plant
allows increased size, structural support prevents dessication (drying out) |
|
Significant macroevolutionary events in plant evolution
|
Cuticle
Vascular tissue Gametangia, Seeds |
|
What contributes to plant size?
|
cuticle, vascular tissue- transport of nutrients and structural support
|
|
seeds
|
houses that contain the developing gametangia
|
|
purpose of the flower in angiosperms
|
Increase fertilization using other species as pollen carriers
|
|
fruits
|
aid the dispersal of seeds
|
|
exposed seed
|
produce seed but it isn’t enclosed in a parental tissue.
|
|
alteration of generations
|
Alternation between multicellular haploid life stages and multicellular diploid life stages
|
|
Sporophyte
|
diploid form that produce haploid spores via meiosis that grow into haploid gametophyte
|
|
Gametophyte
|
by mitosis gives rise to gamates then fertilization takes place
|
|
fertilization in alteration of gen
|
takes place to make gamates into zygote Diploid structure--> grows into Sporophyte by mitosis diploid
|
|
what are unifying features of plants
|
Chloroplasts
Photoautotrophs Store carbs as starch Cell wall made of cellulose Sexual life cycle - alt of gen Embryos protected gametangia |
|
How are Vascular plants organized?
|
as seedless, exposed seed, and enclosed seed
|
|
Xylem
|
transports water and minerals, for photosynthesis.
|
|
Phloem
|
= delivers sugars to the roots for storage
|
|
Lignin
|
the woody tissue, support and strength
|
|
Why do plants get taller and taller?
|
to reach out and compete with other plants in order to get more sun. selective pressure in taller plants.
|
|
What parts of plants have vascular tissues?
|
True roots, leaves, stems
|
|
Vascular plants w/o seeds
|
Sporophyte (2n) generation is dominant-
Independent gametophyte |
|
What are the advantages to having a dominant sporophyte?
|
diploid --> if mistake in 1 chrom then there is 2nd copy that will transfer over ok. on land get more UV light (radiation).
back up copy if your gene gets damaged |
|
Homosporous life cycle
|
Sporangium 1n--> spore1n-> young gametophyte 1n--> egg and sperm-->zygote 2n--> young sporophyte 2n--> mature sporophyte 2n
|
|
seeded plants what happens for gemetophyte
|
gametophyte is reduced and dependnet on the sporophyte
|
|
in seed plants what is gametophyte and sporophyte
|
ovule is the gametophyte
petal is sporophyte |
|
non vascular what is gametophyte and sporophyte
|
top is sporophyte rest is gametophyte
|
|
seedless vascular what is gametophyte and sporophyte
|
stalk= sporo
small bud at bottom= gameto |
|
The four gymnosperms types
|
Cycads, ginkgos, conifers, Gnetophytes
|
|
Cycads and ginkgos
|
Flagellated sperm - swim within pollen tube
Sexes separate – dioecious |
|
Gnetophytes
|
adapted to dry conditions
Non motile sperm Double fertilization |
|
Cycads
|
dioecious palm tree ish thingy
|
|
dioecious
|
2 separate sexes (1 plant= female, 1 plant= male) seeds come from females.
|
|
monecious
|
2 sexes present on same individual (1plant has both male and female organs)
|
|
Conifers
|
non flag sperm, monecious, need leaves, tallest oldest
|
|
how are angiosperms seeds dif from gymnosperms seeds
|
their seeds are housed in ovary tissue.
|
|
perfect flowers
|
both male and female parts=monoecious
|
|
imperfect flowers
|
either male or female parts on flower (not necessarily on 2 sep plants)=can be monoecious or dioecious
|
|
anther
|
where pollen is made in flowers
+filament=stamen |
|
sigma
|
where pollen lands
|
|
ovule
|
contain the eggs
|
|
ovary
|
becomes the fruit
|
|
double fert
|
pollen -->stigma -> down style goes to ovary-> ovule both sperm go into
all angiosperms do it |
|
Microspore
|
Two haploid sperm nuclei
|
|
Megaspore
|
One haploid egg nucleus and two haploid polar nuclei
|
|
what two cell parts were originally free living bacterica
|
chloroplasts and mitochrondria
|
|
Thylakoid
|
is filled with chlorophyll(pigments)- disk like green structures. shuffles e- after light excites them
|
|
hotosystems
|
energy from light travels in photons then absorbed making e- excited then goes into redox reaction
|
|
photosystem I
|
high energy state e- until it reaches the chorophyl because it is next to an e- acceptor. NaDP+ to NADPH
|
|
Photosystem II
|
the final chrolphyll is next to a more e- negative e- acceptor in an e- transport chain in the mitochrondria protein complexs makes ATP. It dumpes its 2e- into the photosystem 1
