QuestionAnswer
In total how many cells make up the female gametophyte? 7 cells
What structure in a flower develops into a seed? ovule
What structure in a flower develops into a fruit? ovary
What is the ploidy level of the integuments in an angiosperm? 2N
What does the megasporocyte develop into? a female gametophyte
Are sperm produced in the pollen tube by mitosis or meiosis? mitosis
Are pollen grains unicellular or multicellular? multicellular when producing male gametophyte, uniceullular for microspores
What type of cell division produced the microspores? meiosis
What is the function of petals in many plant species? protection, attract/repel pollinators
Which part of the pistil produces ovules? ovary
Which part of the stamen has specialized cells that undergo meiosis? anther
What does the megasporocyte develop into? female gametophyte
What is the ploidy level of the megasporangium? 2N
What is the relationship between micropyles and pollen grains? The micropyle allows the pollen to enter the ovule for fertilization.
What do integuments develop into? the coating of the seed
Do ovulate cones produce male or female gametes? female
What is the ploidy level of pollen grains? Are they unicellular or multicellular? 1N, unicellular for microspores, multicellular for male gametophytes
What type of cell division produces microspores? meiosis
What is the function of xylem tissue? water conduction, mechanical support, storage
What is the function of the cuticle? It reduces water lost by evaporation
What is the common name for members of Phylum Anthophyta? flowering plants
What is the common name for members of Phylum Pinophyta? conifers
What is the common name for members of Phylum Anthophyta? flowering plants
What is the common name for members of Phylum Ginkgophyta? ginkgoes
What is the common name for members of Phylum Cycadophyta? cycads
How is the xylem tissue similar to, and distinct from, hydroids? They both conduct water, but xylem is more advanced and has lignen.
Approximately how long have ferns been present on Planet Earth? 360 million years
What does the archegonium produce? eggs, and eggs are sometimes fertilized there to make female gametophytes
How do fern sperm get from the antheridia to the egg? they swim down the archegonia stem
What type of cell division produces spores in fern sporangia? meiosis
What multicellular structures are produced by the sorus? spores
How does a fern gametophyte obtain the food it requires? photosynthesis
What group of protists looks most similar to moss protonema? Oedogonium
What is the ploidy level of peristome teeth? 2N
What is the ploidy level of spores in Phylum Bryophyta? 1N
How does a moss sporophyte obtain the water and food it requires? the mother plant provides the minerals
What does the antheridium produce? male gametes (sperm)
What type of cell devision produces the gametes in the archegonium? mitosis
What do hydroids do? conduct water and minerals
What does the sporophyte produce by meiosis? haploid spores
What is the relatinoship between the antheridium and the antheridiophore? antheridiophore produces antheridium
What is the relationship between an archegonium and an archegoniophore? archegoniophores produce archegonia on liverworts
What do pores do? allow gas to pass in and out of Hepaticophytes (lead into air pockets)
What do gemmae do? Uses asexual reproduction to detach from parent and develop new individual
Is the gametophyte, sporophyte, or both nutritionally independent in Phylum Pteridophyta? both
Is the gametophyte, sporophyte, or both nutritionally independent in Phylum Bryophyta? sporophyte
Is the gametophyte, sporophyte, or both nutritionally independent in Phylum Hepaticophyta? sporophyte
What is the common name for members of Phylum Pteridophyta? ferns
What is the common name for members of Phylum Bryophyta? mosses
What is the common name for members of Phylum Hepaticophyta? liverworts
How does the fungal component of a lichen obtain its food? from the photoynthetic algal partner
What is the relationship between an ascocarp and an apothecium? an apothecium is a cup-like ascocarp
What is the function of soredia? reproduction
What type of spores are produced when the fungal component of a lichen reproduces sexually? diaspores
Photosynthesis in most lichens is carried out by which group of organisms? green algae
Most lichens include members of which phylum of fungi? ascomycota
How does a mycelium obtain food? external digestion and facilitated diffusion of monomers
What is the relationship between gills and basidiospores? gills produce basidia which produce basidiospores
What type of cell division gives rise to basidiospores? meiosis
What do basidia produce? sexual spores: basidiospores
What is the relationship between an ascocarp and a mycelium? ascocarp is a sac-like fruiting body that obtains its nutrients from a 1N mycelium
What ploidy level occurs inside an ascus that occurs nowhere else in the ascomycete life cycle? diploid
Ascospores are produced inside of what structures? asci inside of ascocarps
What type of cell division results in the production of spores by conidiophores? mitosis
What is the distinguishing feature of spetate hyphae? What are the two possible ploidy levels of these hyphae? They are separated into sections; haploid and diploid
What is the ploidy level of the spores produced in the sporangium? 1N
What is the distinguishing feature of aseptate (coenocytic) hyphae? What is the ploidy level of these hyphae? They have no separations; haploid
What events occur in the zygosporangium? haploid nuclei fuse and produce many diploid nuclei
What is the common name for members of the Phylum Basidiomycota? club fungi
What is the common name for members of the Phylum Ascomycota? sac fungi
