Definition

Sporophyte: Small, stalk-like part

Spore: Method of dispersal

Male Gametophyte: Majority of plant

Female/Hermaphrodite Gametophyte: majority of plant

Gametes: Sperm swim, egg stays in female gametophyte

Fertilization: Needs water

Zygote: Attached to female gametophyte

Term
Moss
Definition

Sporophyte: Small, stalk-like part

Spore: Method of dispersal

Male Gametophyte: Majority of plant; bigger than in liverwort

Female/Hermaphrodite Gametophyte: majority of plant; bigger than in liverwort

Gametes: Sperm swim, egg stays in female gametophyte

Fertilization: Needs water

Zygote: Attached to female gametophyte

Term
Fern
Definition

Sporophyte: Majority of plant; has vascular system

Spore: Method of dispersal

Male Gametophyte: Smaller than hermaphrodite; tiny

Female/Hermaphrodite Gametophyte: Bigger than male; still small

Gametes: Sperm swim, egg stays in female gametophyte

Fertilization: Needs water

Zygote: Attached to female gametophyte

Term
Pine
Definition

Sporophyte: Majority of plant; has vascular system

Spore: Stay within cones; microspore makes male gametophyte; megaspore makes female gametophyte

Male Gametophyte: Grows in male cone; pollen grain is male gametophyte

Female/Hermaphrodite Gametophyte: stays in female cone

Gametes: Pollination required (wind) ; sperm made by pollen tube; egg stays in female cone

Fertilization: Sperm delivered to egg by pollen tube

Zygote: Inside female cone

Seed: Complex structure

Term
Angiosperm
Definition

Sporophyte: Majority of plant; has vascular system

Spore: Stay within flower; microspore makes male gametophyte; megaspore makes female gametophyte

Male Gametophyte: Grows in anther; polle grain is male gametophyte

Female/Hermaphrodite Gametophyte: Stays in ovary

Gametes: Pollination required (many); sperm made by pollen tube; egg stays in ovary

Fertilization: Sperm delivered to egg by pollen tube

Zygote: Inside ovary

Seed: Complex structure
