QuestionAnswer
What does it mean when cells de-differentiate? Cells produce proteins typical of other cell types.
Steps of plant life cycle... Gametogenesis, fertilization, embryogenesis
Sperm and egg are produced via mitosis from haploid cells in plants.
Alternation of generations the alternation of two or more different forms in the life cycle of a plant
Fertilization occurs when... sperm and egg combine in the female ovule.
Embryogenesis ends with... the maturation of the ovule into a seed which contains a dormant embryo, supply of nutrients and a protective coat.
Germination Germination is the process in which a plant or fungus emerges from a seed or spore and begins growth.
Organogenesis Becoming an adult with vegetative organs.
3 basic organs of a plant Roots, stem, leaves
Carpel Female reproductive system
Stamen Male reproductive system
Anther The part of a stamen that contains the pollen
Stigma The pollen accepting organ in a flower
Pollen transferred from anther through stigma by... Water, wind, animals
How is self fertilization and cross species fertilization prevented? Proteins on the surface of the pollen grain interact with the surface of the stigma and rejects or accepts the pollen.
Double fertilization One sperm fuses with egg to form a diploid zygote. One sperm fuses with maternal cells to form a triploid.
Endosperm tissue that stores nutrients inside the seed for embryonic development, seed germination, and early seedling growth. (formed from triploid cell)
Suspensor Anchors embryo as it develops
Radial axis Established in globular state.
Cotyledons Initial leaves
Hypocotyl Stem like and below the cotyledons.
Shoot Above ground portion of the plant body.
Root Below ground portion
Meristem Undifferentiated cells that divide repeatedly
Epidermis Outer protective covering
Ground tissue Mass of cells that may later differentiate into specialized cells for photosynthesis, food storage, and other functions.
Vascular Tissue Differentiate into cells that later transport food and water between root and shoot.
MONOPTEROS Gene that sets up apical-basal axis
Auxin Cell to cell signal molecule produced in the shoot apical meristem and transported to the basal part of the embryo.
Stem apical meristem and root apical meristem Allows plant to grow in any direction above and below ground.
PHANTASTICA Gene that sets up upper and lower axis of leaves
Floral apical meristem Modified shoot apical meristem that produces reproductive organs containing flowers.
Sepal Outside; provide protection
Petals Encloses reproductive organs and may be colored to attract pollinators
Stamen Pollen producing organ (male)
Carpel Egg producing ovule (female)
ABC model Hypothesis that 3 genes are involved in flower development.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
