Why do scientists study green algae along with land plants?
| | | | | | | | |
-ANSWER-1. They are the closest living relative to land
| | | | | | | | | |
| plants and form a monophyletic group
| | | | |
2 Transition from aquatic to terrestrial life occured when land
| | | | | | | | |
| plants evolved from green algae
| | | |
How do plants reproduce in dry conditions? -ANSWER-1.
| | | | | | | |
| Gametes are produced in protected structures (gametangia)
| | | | | |
| to prevent drying and mechanical damage
| | | | |
2. Land plants as embryophytes
| | | |
,Name the six main developments allowing for life on land -
| | | | | | | | | |
| ANSWER-1. Cuticle |
2. Stomata
3. Vascular Tissue |
4. Gametes produced in complex structures (gametangia)
| | | | |
5. Embryo is retained and nourished by parent
| | | | | |
6. Alternation of generations | |
Alternation of Generations - ANSWER-Haploid
| | | |
| gametophytes produces gametes by mitosis which fuse to | | | | | | |
| form a zygote and grow into a diploid sporophyte which
| | | | | | | | |
| produces haploid spores by meiosis that grow back into the
| | | | | | | | |
| haploid gametophyte.
|
, Sporophyte vs. Gametophyte dominant -ANSWER-In
| | | | |
| mosses the gametophyte is large and long lived,
| | | | | | |
| sporphyte depends on gametophyte for nutrition.
| | | | |
In ferns, the sporophyte is large and long lived but when
| | | | | | | | | |
| young depends on gametophyte for nutrition
| | | | |
Why did the transition from gametophyte-dominant to
| | | | | |
| sporophyte-dominant occur? - ANSWER-Scientists | | |
| hypothesize diploid cells can respond to varying
| | | | | |
| environmental conditions more effectively than haploid
| | | | |
| cells, particularily if individual is heterozygous for many
| | | | | | |
| genes
What are four characteristics of seed plants -ANSWER-1.
| | | | | | | |
| Sporophyte-dominant life cycles | |
