In seed plants, the ovule is the structure that gives rise to and contains the female reproductive cells
which generation is found in the seed of gumnosperm and angiosperm plants
seed plants
what is gymnosperm
a seed plant with the ovules borne on the surface of a sporophyll
what are microspores
The smaller type of spore, bearing male gametes
what are megaspores
the larger type of spore bearing female gametes
What is the difference between pollination and fertilization?
Pollination is the spreading of pollen from the male to the female part of a flower.

Fertilization is the sperm and egg joining to form a zygote.
What Is An Example Of Angiosperms?
daisy rose any flowering plant
what is an example of gymnosperm plants
conifers, cycads, ginkgoes, and gnetophytes
what are monocots
flower parts in threes or multiples of three, herbaceous, parallel venation, never woody
what are eudicots
flowering parts in fours or fives, woody or herbaceous, net venation, can be woody
what is double fertilization
egg & polar body/nucleli are fertilized
what is the endosperm
is the tissue inside the seeds of flowering plants at the time of fertilization
what is the embryo sac
produces the egg cell for fertilization
what are the three parts of the seed
seed coat, embryo & endosperm (3n)
what is chemosynthetic
a bacteria able to make organic molecules utilizing in organic molecules
what is the scientific name for the organism that couses black death
Yersinia pestis
waht is saprotrophic
most bacteria. they send out digestive enzymes in to the environment & take up the resulting nutrient molecules
what is a colony
cells that decended from an original cell
what does an endospore contain and what is it incased in
contains a copy of the genetic material incased by heavy protective spore coats

a group of similarly constructed organisms that share common genes
what is a population
all members of a species living in a particular area
what is a fossil
remains or ecidence of some organism that lived long ago
what are the three types of evidence that suggest various types of organisms are related through common descent
fossil record, comparative anatomy & biochemical comparison
how is the age of a fossil measured
relative and absolute dating
how does the process of dating work
doesnt give exact date just dates that this one died before that one
what is the difference between homologous and analogous structures
homologus come from the same embryo tissue analogous does not come from the same embry tissue
what structures are used to indicate an evolutionary relationship
homologus
