most are autotrophic, photosynthesis, 300,000 species of plants,
| | | | | | | |



evolved from green algae, plant and green algae share the same
| | | | | | | | | | |



pigment, starch, and other biochemical reproductive similarities,
| | | | | |




Phylogeny of Plants - ANSWER✔✔✔-simplest are mosses, hornworts,
| | | | | | | |



liverworts and related species: mosses, Bryophytes, simple, nonvascular
| | | | | | |



|plants spore producing; pterophytes, ferns, vascular, reproduce with
| | | | | | | |



spores; gymnosperms (conifers, pines, ciders, spruce, cone producing)
| | | | | | | |



angiosperms (flowering plants and fruits for pollinators, largest single
| | | | | | | | |



group of plants ) are vascular and seed producing,
| | | | | | | |




Vascular Tissue - ANSWER✔✔✔-xylem , carries water and minerals up
| | | | | | | | | |



from roots and phloem carries sugar and other other nutrients down
| | | | | | | | | | |



and around the plant, from leaves
| | | | |




Gametangium - ANSWER✔✔✔-the gametophyte stage of mosses | | | | | | |



consisting of a male antheridium and a female archegonium
| | | | | | | |

,gametophyte - ANSWER✔✔✔-multicellular, sexually, haploid stage of
| | | | | | |



the life cycle that produces haploid gametes that fuse to form the
| | | | | | | | | | | |



diploid sporophyte
|




sporophyte - ANSWER✔✔✔-multicellular, diploid stage of the life cycle
| | | | | | | | |



that through meiosis produces haploid gametes that become the
| | | | | | | | |



gametophyte


Bryophytes and relatives - ANSWER✔✔✔-ex) mosses, liverworts,
| | | | | | |



hornworts, nonvascular, gametophyte dominant, spores, water
| | | | | |



fertilization, and water/wind spore dispersal
| | | |




Pteridophytes Ferns and relatives - ANSWER✔✔✔-ex) ferns, psilotum
| | | | | | | |



(whisk fern), Lycopodium, Equisetum (horsetails), vascular, sporophyte
| | | | | | |



dominant, small separate gametophyte stage, spores, water fertilization,
| | | | | | |



water/wind spores dispersal
| | |




Gymnosperms and Relatives - ANSWER✔✔✔-ex)Conifers, Gingko,
| | | | | |



cycads, vascular, sporophyte dominate, seeds, wind (pollination)
| | | | | | |



fertilization, wind seed dispersal
| | |




Angiosperms and Relatives - ANSWER✔✔✔-Ex) flowering plants,
| | | | | | |



grasses, hardwoods, vascular, sporophyte dominant, seeds,
| | | | |



wind/animals(flowers) fertilization, wind animals (fruits) seeds dispersal
| | | | | | |

,Anthocertophyta - ANSWER✔✔✔-hornworts | |

| |




Coniferophyta - ANSWER✔✔✔-conifers
| |




Angiospermophyta - ANSWER✔✔✔-flowering plants | | |




spores and seeds - ANSWER✔✔✔-major reproductive strategies,
| | | | | | |



mosses and ferns (spore), gymnosperms and angiosperms (seed)
| | | | | | |




Flower Diversity - ANSWER✔✔✔-most amazing adaptations: flowering
| | | | | | |



plants

, Fruit Diversity - ANSWER✔✔✔-flowers evolved to attract pollinators for
| | | | | | | | |



pollination, fruits are part of the female part of the flower: ovary of the
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



pistol. can be by wind, float in water, mechanical to disperse seeds
| | | | | | | | | | |




Bryophytes - ANSWER✔✔✔-liverworts, hornworts, mosses, simplest,
| | | | | |



nonvascular, found in moist environments, shady areas near house, near
| | | | | | | | |



water, no tissue will limit size, challenge to get nutrients if they are
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



bigger, dominant gametophyte stage (haploid), photosynthetic stage is
| | | | | | | |



haploid, true mosses are different from Spanish moss,
| | | | | | |
