Cards

Term
Diploid, multicellular Sporophyte
develops from? dependent on?
produces? that grow into?
Definition
.develops from embryo
.dependnt on gametopyte
.produces haploid sports that grow into new haploid gametophtyes
Term
Haploid Gametophyte
.still dominant in?
produces?
.egg is__ inside____ and remains?
._____provides all_____ to _______
Definition
still dominant in non vascular embryophtes
.porduces egg and sperm gametes
egg si fertilized inside gametangium (archegonium) and remains on gametophyte after fertilization
gametophyte provides all nutrient to dependent saprophyte
Term
Bryophytes
.refers to? how many of land plants?
.not?why?
.dominat life stage?
.______ must have______to reach_______
.______ covers signifiant surface area and serves as a_____ for ______
Definition
. refers to liverworts, hormwort, and mosses; collectively about 8% of land plants
.not monphyletic(hormworts have more recent common ancestor with vascular plants than with other bryophytes)
.Gametophyte is the dominate life stage
.motile sperm must have film of water to reach an archegonium (with an egg)
.Sphagnum (peat) mss overs significant surface area and serves as a substrate for bog ecosystems
Term
Vascular plants
.fossils appear around?
are dominate life stage?
presence of two type of? and allow them to ?
Definition
.fossils appear around 420 may
.diploid saprophytes are dominant life stage
.presence of two type of vascular tissue allow them to live further form water
Term
Xylem
Definition
tubes of dead cells that conduct most of water and minerals
Term
Phloem
Definition
living cells that distribute sugars and amino acids
Term
Roots
Definition
organs tha anchor plant to and enable absorption of water and nutrients from the substrate
Term
Leafs
Definition
organs that increase surface area available for photsytheisis
Term
Spikemos, Quillworts, and clubmosses
.all have
.all produce
._____ grom form _______ are very____ and produce_____
.two unrelated gametophytes must be in ____________
Definition
.all have diploid sporophyte as dominate life stage
.all produce spores at the base of modified leave
.gametopytes grow form spores are very small, and produce sperm or egg
.two unrelated gametophytes must be in relatively close proximity for sperm to swim to egg,form a zygote and grow into a new sporophyte
Term
Ferns
.closest relative of?
.Like spiemosses, Quillworts, and Clubmosses, the sporophyte dominates________while the ________
____usually produce_______or have ____.
Definition
.closets relative of seed splints
.like spikemosses Quillworts, and Clubmosses, the Sporophyte dominates the life cycle while the gametophytes are usually much smaller and shorter-lived
.ferns usually produce spores on their leaves or have specialized leaves devoted entirely to spore production
