Plant Kingdom Flashcards

1
Q

Artificial system of classification and drawbacks

A

Given by Carolus Linnaeus on the basis of androcium structure and external morphology
Drawbacks:- equal importance was given to both vegetative and reproductive features.

Q

Numerical taxonomy and drawbacks

A

Hundreds of character are studied at a time and each character is given equal weightage.
Drawback:- equal weightage was given to features like reproduction and
morphology.

Q

What gives RA, GA and BA their color?

A

GA- chlorophyll
RA- r-phycoerythrin
BA- fucoxanthine

21
Q

Stored food in different algae

A

GA- starch and oils (in pyrenoids)
RA-floridian starch
BA-laminarin and mannitol( brown coke in ml)

22

G-zoospore
B-zoospore
R-aplanospore

24
Q

Sexual spore in algae

A

G-iso, aniso and oo
B-iso, aniso and oo

25
Q

GA examples

A

Classy Car SUV

Chlamydomonas
Chara/chlorella
Spirogyra
Ulothrix
Volvox
Eudorina

26
Q

BA examples

A

SELF Ka Defence
Sargassum
Ectocarpus
Laminaria
Fucus
Kelp
Dictyota

27
Q

RA

A

Gol Gappe Pani Puri
Gellidium
Gracilaria
Porphyra
Polysiphonia

28
Q

Bryophytes habitat

A

Moist, shady areas like stream banks, marshy ground, damp soil, bark of trees and deep in the woods.

29
Q

Asexual reproduction in liverworts

A

Inside gemma cup, which contains asexual buds which are produced by budding.

30
Q

Sexual reproduction in liverworts

A

They are diocious i.e unisexual
Gametes formed in antheridium and archegonium.
Sporophyte arises after fusion and forms foot, seta and capsule. Meiosis occurs in capsule and spores are formed.

31
Q

Stages in mosses

A

Spore
1• protonema- performs fragmentation
2• protonema- performs budding
Leafy stage- sexual reproduction

32
Q

Liverworts examples

A

Marchantia(unisexual) and riccia(bi)

RML

33
Q

Mosses examples

A

FPS
Funeria
Polytricum
Sphagnum

34
Q

Pteridophyte habitat

A

Moist, damp, humid, shady places and some in sandy soil.

35
Q

Importance of pteridophyte

A

Medicinal- selagenella(sajeevani booti)
Ornamental- adiantum, rumoura
(oRnAmental)

36
Q

Pteridophyte plant body

A

Main body is sporophytic- have sporangia
But gametophytic stage is primitive- prothallus

37
Q

Pteridophyte examples

A

Psilopsida- psilotum
Lycopsida- lycopodium, selagenella(L common)
Sphenopsida- equisetum(E common)
Pteropsida- pteris, dryopteris and adiantum (DAP)

38
Q

Selagenella features (3)

A

Microphyll
Strobilus(forms cone i.e cones also +nt)
Shows heterospory(different types of spores for different gametophyte namely megagametophyte and microgametophyte)

39
Q

Macrophyll seen in

A

Ferns (except selaginella)

40
Q

Cone/strobilus seen in

A

Selagenella and equisetum

41
Q

Heterospory in

A

Selagenella and salvinia(S common)

42
Q

Corolloid root

A

Association of BGA(gives N2) and cycas root(gymno, gives nutrition)

43
Q

Gymnosperms reproduction

A

Have heterosexual cones i.e male and female
Process is very similar to that seen in angiosperms

44
Q

Precursors of seed habit

A

Pteridophytes are said to be so because they show zygotes development within female gametophyte.
They do not have seed coat due to the lack of integument.

45
Q

Gymnosperms examples

A

Pinus, cedrus, cycas, red wood tree, ginkgo(living fossil)
