The chloroplast of land plants are thought to have been derived according to which evolutionary sequence

1. Cyanobacteria


2. green algae


3. landplants

This type of protist asexual reproduction involves mass production of daughter cells simultaneously which results in the host becoming sick extremely

Trypanosoma

Some species of this marine protist are bioluminescent and beautiful to behold. However, approximately 20 species are toxic and when they bloom cause a harmful red-tide

Spagnum Peatmoss

Do seed plant gemtophytes lack archegonium and antheridium.

True

Rhizoids

are the first structure to emerge during spore germination

Earliest seedless vacular plant is

lychophytes

A ________ has megasporangium + megaspore + integument

Ovule

Plant species with functional stamens and carpels which are both present, but reach maturity at different times are called_________

dichogamous

This pathway allows plants to respond to seasonal changes keeping plants on schedule with pollinators and allows flowering when abiotic conditions are optimal

Photoperiodic

Reasons for self-pollination except

promotes genetic diversity


Reasons:


1.ecological advantage of independce from a pollinator


2. no energy expended making a flower w/ nectar


3. uniform progeny specifically adapted to uniform habitat.

When a plant has little to no woody parts it is referred to as ________

Herbaceous

Plants that produce only ovule or only pollen are called_________




Plants that produce ovule and pollen are called ________

dioecious plants




Monoecious plants

All are features of apomixis except

results in triploid endosperm




features:


asexually produces embryos in viable seeds


no sperm needed


genetically identical to parents


diploids cells are cloned in the ovule

A pollen grain/ sac....

contains the male gametophytes

Cactus spines, venus flytraps, "mouth" and pine needles are all types of modified________

leaves

"Smart Plants" have been produced to warn a grower when a nutrient deficiency is imminent by doing what?

producing a blue pigment in the leaves

All nitrogen fixing organism are

Prokaryotes

An Epiphyte _________

lives on another plant but does not harm or steal from it

Spongy outgrowths from the roots below and are found in mangroves or swamps where the mud is thick and water logged so roots grow up into the air

pneumatophores

________________is when the pollen and stigma recognize each other as being related and pollen tube growth is blocked

Self-incompatibility

Angiosperms pollination

occurs via wing in approximately 20% of angiosperms

These dermal cells flank the stomata and regulate the opening and closing

Guard cells

Flowers and leaves undergo what type of growth?

Determinate growth

This type of plant tissue is perpetually undifferentiated

Meristems

What country is the potato native to

peru

in the film, what was the answer to the problem of monocultures?

getting away from monocultures and instead promote genetic diversity by planting a variety of crops

According to the Royal Botanic Garden plant biologist, there are approximately 380,000 species of green plants. How many do we get over half our calories from?

3

Why does plant diversity equal plant resilience

More plant species equals higher genetic diversity. Higher genetic diversity allows some speeds of plants to adapt in the face of nature or human caused stressors such as pollution or disease



List four traits which plants share ONLY with charophyte algae:

1. Rings of cellulose in cell walls


2. peroxisome enymes


3. flagellated sperm structure


4. chlorophyll


5. sporopellenin



study parts of flower 


circle male structres

study parts of flower




circle male structres

stamen, carpel, anther, stigma, filamen, style, ovary and ovule

label double fertilization
Explain double fertilization

label double fertilization


Explain double fertilization

Stigma catches pollen grain and generative cells start to develop the pollen tube to the micropyle of the female gametophytes. The pollen tube contains the male gametophytes (2 sperm). the synersids signal pollen grain and tube to enter into ovule. Once pollen tube and sperm have reached the ovule 1 sperm will fertilize the egg making a zygote. Second sperm will fertilize the 2 polar nuclei making it an endosperm. The endosperm provides nutrients for the ovule and is not considered a seed. The endosperm prevents the zygote to spurge.

What conditions will cause the plant to flower

The amount of hours exposed to sunlight doesn't matter, what matters is the amount of darkness they receive. (short Nights)



What these plants are referred to as with regards to photoperiodic control

long Day

How/ Why a flash of light will affect flowering?????

Generalized alternation of generation life cycle

Sporophyte(2n) -spores (n) -via meiosis


(spores germinate into gametophyte via mitosis)


Gamete (n) from another plant fertilizes the gamete creating a zygote (2n) via Mitosis. (which grows into a sporophyte.

List 7 characteristics which would make the generalized alternation of generation life cycle specific to Phylum Coniferophyta

1. Pollen grain


2. pollen cone


3. Microspres


4. Megaspores


5. seeds, Cones


6. Ovule


7. Pollen Tube
