Practical Flashcards

Spherical (Cocci)

Bocillus

Spirlilla

Nostoc: Photosynthetic cyanobacterium. Filamentous colonies of sperical bacteria.
structurally the simplest organisms, and consist of single cells or chains of cells
Prokaryotes
defined by being eukaryotic organisms that are unicellular or have a simple body with little or no differentiation of the cells that make it up (they do not have different tissues).
Protists
What were 5 adaptations primitive plants needed to survive on land?
Roots, Cuticle layer (waterproofing), rigid structural support, Vascular tissue, volved sperm cells protected within pollen grains, seeds
In sequence what are the four major groups that evolved in the tersterical world.
Bryophytes, Seedless vascular plants, gymnosperms, Angiosperms.
Monocots
A subdivition of Angiosperms. They have flower parts (petals, Stamen) in multiples of three. They have leaf veins that run parallel to the long acis of the left. They do not prduce wood or bark
Dicots
A subdivition of Angiosperms. They have flower parts (petals , stamen) in multiples of four or five. They have auxilary veins that go between the major veins. They are able to produce wood and bark.
