Defining characteristic(s) of plants

- cell walls made of cellulose


- sessile (don't move)


- alteration of generations

3 points

Name the two main phases of plant's life cylce

- Diploid phase


- Haploid phase

Alteration of generations

What do the diploid and haploid phases of a plant produce and how

Diploid - sporophytes, meiosis


Haploid - gametophytes, mitosis

Spores and gametes

Plants were the first organisms to inhabit land, T or F

F - protists, bacteria, and fungi

What are charophytes thought to be

The ancestors of modern plants

First land plants were:

- small, close to the ground and eachother


- poikilohydric (drought tolerators)


- non-vascular ([em]bryophytes)


- mosses and lichen


- Haploid dominant


- homosporous (one spore type)


- seedless

7 points

Order of plant generations

[Em]Bryophytes


Ferns


Gymnosperms


Angiosperms

Bryophyte Major Characteristics

- need water for fertilization


- have cuticle and stomata


- non-vascular


- gametophyte dominant (Haploid)


- homosporous ( one spore type)

5 points

In bryophytes gametangium that produce ____ are called ___:

- eggs, arcegonia


- sperm, antheridia

Gametangium are a protective organ for gametophytes


2 answers

Briefly summarise a bryophyte's life cycle

Spores released -> germinate and grow into male and female gametophytes -> egg and sperm meet through water -> fertilized egg develops into a zygote then sporophyte

Start at spores

Seedlees Vascular Major Characteristics

- Sporophyte dominant


- vascular


- water required for fertilization


- cuticle and stomata yes

4 points

Gymnosperm Major Characteristics

- vascular


- naked seeds


- sporophyte dominant


- pollination


- cuticle and stomata

5 points

Angiosperm Major Characteristics

- cuticle and stomata


- vascular


- sporophyte dominant


- pollination


- flowers, seeds, and fruits

5 points

What is the difference between sorus and strobilus

Sorus (sing. -i) - cluster of sporangia, homosporous


Strobilus - a structure of individual sporangia, heterosporus

Conifers are ____

Gymnosperms

Cyads and ginkgoes are too

What are the four major reproductive adaptations in gymnosperms

Ovules (pre-seed)


Pollen (sperm)


Seeds (fertilized ovule)


Cones (house ovules and pollen)

Basic parts of a seeds

- embryo sporophyte


- surrounding nourishing tissues


- tough protective coat

3 parts

Angiosperms are separated into two major groups called

Monocots and eudicots

Monocots

- Embryos have a single leaf like structure called a cotyledon


- first leaf stays at bottom


- three floral parts


- leave veins parallel


- vascular bundles distributed through tissue


- fibrous branching roots

Eudicots

- Embryos have 2 cotyledons


- first leave grows up


- four or five floral parts


- leaf veins net like


- vascular bundles organized as a ring


- main tap roots smaller lateral roots

True dicots

Meristems

Growth patches at ends of plant


Primary and lateral


Responsible for height and girth

3 herbaceous flowering plant types

Annuals - life cycles completed in one growing season


Biennials - complete her life cycle in two growing seasons ( roots, stems, leaves first year| flower, seeds, die second year)


Perennials - vegetative and reproductive growth continue year after year

parenchyma

Make up roots stems leaves flowers and fruits Water permeable



Water permeable


Water permeable

Soft primary tissues

Sclerenchyma

Additional mechanical support


Protection


Pits


Can die and leave structure

Rigid support and protection

Xylem

Transports minerals and water upward

Three types of plant tissue

Ground tissue


Vascular tissue


Dermal tissue

Phloem

Transports sugars and other solutes throughout the plant

Stems

Adapted to provide support, routes for vascular tissues, storage, and new growth

Taproot

Thicc


Have smaller lateral roots


Youngest near tips


Storage optimization

Fibrous root

Dense network


Absorb water and nutrients from upper layer


Hold soil together

Adventious roots

Grow from weird places like stems or leaves

Secondary growth

Bark or something


Can happen in roots

Hormone

A hormone is a signaling molecule that regulates or helps coordinate some aspect of growth, metabolism, or development

Auxins

- synthesized in atypical meristems


- growing tissues vascular tissues affected


- growth of lateral roots dormancy in buds, fruit development, plant to light

Form:Where is synthesized tissues affectedEffects

Gibberellins

- roots and shoot tips, young leaves in developing embryos


- tissues affected stems and developing seeds


- cell division in Stems, germination

Form:Where is synthesized tissues affectedEffects

Cytokinins

- root tips


- shoot a typical meristems leaves and buds


- cell division, inhibit senescence of leaves, coordinate growth of Roots & Shoots with auxin

Form:Where is synthesized tissues affectedEffects

Abscisic acid

- young seeds, shoots and leaves


- shoots and tips, embryos, leaves


- cell division, differentiation of vascular tissue, stomata control

Form:
