QuestionAnswer
Compare characteristics of plants and green alga Cell walls are composed of cellulose Cell division that includes the formation of a cell plate They have the same chlorophyll used in photosynthesis Food stored as a starch
Name the adaptations of plants to land environments Cuticle,stomata, reproductive strategies, vascular tissues, and seeds
Describe cuticle a waxy fatty layer it prevents water loss it prevents microorganisms entering the plants.
Describe Stomata it allows exchanges of gases(oxygen and allows carbon dioxide goes in) are usually on the underside of leaves open more at night time
Describe Vascular Tissues specialized transport tissues it transports water and food allowing the plants to grow tall they provide support and structure Nonvascular plant move food and water by osmosis and diffusion and are short plants.

Explain alternation of generations of plants Gametophytes t produces gametes( are half floyd cells that are either sperm or egg) when the sperm fertilizes the egg a diploid zygote forms that undergoes mitosis forming a sporophyte generation
Explain alternation of generations of plants Gametophytes Part 2 the sporophyte generation produces spores that can grown to form the next generation gametophyte generation. in most cases the sporophyte generation is dominant.
Identify the structures of nonvascular plants They are small plants they usually live in very damp shady areas Because of the lack of vascular tissue water and nutrients move by osmosis and diffusion
