Q

Life cycle of pine (male)

A

1) Pollen cones contain microsporophyll which contain microsporangia
2) Within the microsporangia there are cells called microsporocytes that go through meiosis to make microspores
3) Microspores turn into pollen grain(n) which have male gametophyte

21
Q

Life cycle of pine (female)

A

1) Ovulate cones contain Megasporophylls(2n) that bear megasporangia(2n) and stem tissue
2) The megasporocytes in the megasporangia go through meiosis to produce haploid megaspores
3) Megaspores develop into female gametophytes which are retained in the megasporangia

22
Q

4 Gymnosperm phyla

A

1) Cycadophyta
2) Ginkgophyta
3) Gnetophyta
4) Coniferophyta

23
Q

Cycadophyta

A

1) Large cones and palm like leaves
2) Has flagellated sperm

24
Q

Ginkgophyta (3)

A

1) One living species, Ginkgo biloba
2) Has flagellated sperm
3) has high tolerance for air pollution

25
Gnetophyta (2)
1) 3 genera: Gnetum, Ephedra, Welwitschia 2) Vary in appearance and location
26
Ephedra
anxiety
27
Sinica
psychosis
28
Coniferophyta (3)
1) Largest of the gymnosperm 2) Mostly woody cones 3) Mainly evergreens
29
Angiosperm (domain, kingdom, phylum)
Domain: Eukarya Kingdom: Plantae Single Phylum: Anthophyta Flower and fruits
30
What is the purpose of Flowers?
Angiosperm meant for sexual reproduction
31
4 Floral organs
Sepals Petals Stamens Carpel
32
Sepals characteristics (3)
Enclose the flower protect unopened floral buds resemble leaves
33
explain the coloration of Petals
Bright color to attract pollinators or no color if wind pollinated
34
Stamens characteristics(2)
1) Male reproductive organs 2) Contain filament, with a sac called anther
35
Carpels characteristics(2)
1) Female Reproductive organs 2) Has an ovary at the base of a style leading up to stigma (where pollen is received) Fertilized ovules develop into seeds
36
What do Stamens contain?
Contain filament, with a sac called anther
37
What are microspores
produced in anthers, develop into pollen grains containing male gametophytes
38
What is an Anther
sac on the stamen, produces and holds microspores (pollen)
39
What are Pistil
Single carpel or two or more fused carpels
40
Radial Symmetry
Any imaginary line through the central axis divides the flower into two equal parts
41
Bilateral Symmetry
Flower can only be divided into two equal parts by a single imaginary line
42
When do Fruits form? What is its function?
Formed when ovary wall thickens and matures Protects seeds and aid in dispersal
43
Male gametophytes located where on Angiosperms
In pollen grains produced by the microsporangia of anther
44
Female gametophyte located where on angiosperms
Within an ovule within an ovary at the base of a stigma
45
Micropyle
Ovule is entered through a pore called the micropyle
46
Double Fertilization
when pollen tube discharges two sperm into the female gametophyte within an ovule
47
What starts the development of endosperm
One Sperm must fertilize the egg, the other combines with two polar nuclei in the central cell of female gametophyte
48
Cotyledons
One/two seed leaves
