Question
Answer
earliest plants are thought to be evolved from, descendants of...   green algae  
🗑
scientific name for PHYLOGENY of GREEN ALGAE , {closest extant relative of land plants}   CHAROPHYCEANS "origins, ancestor to land plants" think 'mother ocean, charophycean, aqueous, closest relative'  
🗑
four major phases of plant evolution   I. [bryophytes], NON-VASCULAR PLANTS, no xylem/phloem MOST SIMILAR TO CHAROPHYCEANS II. [seedless vascular plants], had xylem and phloem. III. [gymnosperm] seed that nourishes and protects IV. [angiosperm] flowering plants, FRUITING, easily pollenated  
🗑
GGT SSE   gametophytes produce gametes mitotically Sporophytes produce Spores via mEiosis  
🗑
Thallus   gametophyte plant body lacks xylem or phloem  
🗑
bryophyte reproduction requires (mosses)   water! for the sperm to travel via chemotaxis  
🗑
bryphyte resource movement (mosses)   water via OSMOSIS, nutrients via DIFFUSION 'mosses osmosis'  
🗑
3 phyla of nonvascular plants [ bryophytes ]   mosses, liverworts, hornworts  
🗑
branches of unicellular filament produced by germinating moss spore   protonema  
🗑
bryophyte gametophytes anchored via   rhizoids (1n) key: primarily for support, not for water/mineral transport  
🗑
gamete producing structure [bryophytes/nonvasculars]   gametophore [bryophytes/nonvasculars]  
🗑
bryophyte anatomy 1. rhizoid 2.    
🗑
bryophyte sporophytes can survive independently?   no, bryophyte sporophytes are dependent on parental gametophyte.  
🗑
