The ancestors of seed plants are thought to have been heterosporous. In modern day gymnosperms, megasporangia produce the gametes that give rise to the male gametophyte. Gymnosperm and angiosperm megasporangia have one integument layer. The megasporangia haploid and makes the megaspore. a) How many mistakes are in the above paragraph? b) Rewrite the paragraph to be correct. Underline any changes you make to correct the statements.

a. How are the angiosperms classified according to the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG)? b. What is the present understanding about the origin of flowering plants, and the classification of angiosperms into “monocots” and “dicots”, based on most recent evidences? c. The work of plant taxonomists of the 20th century who identified /established the different families of flowering plants based mainly on morphological and anatomical details is still valued and being used today, despite the general acceptance of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) as a classification system for the flowering plants. Explain why.
Which statement below is correct regarding the formation of the endosperm in angiosperms? O the endosperm is formed from the female gametophyte and is haploid O a single sperm nucleus fertilizes the egg nucleus to become the diploid zygote O a sperm nucleus forms both the zygote and the endosperm through double fertilization O a second sperm nucleus fuses with the two polar nuclei of the egg sac МacВook Pro G Search or type URL @ 2# $ & * 2 3 4 6 8 W E R Y
Describe the orders ANGIOSPERMS-EUDICOTS : ERICALES, GENTIANALES, LAMIALES, SOLANALES, APIALES AND ASTERALES in terms of plant habit, reproductive type (monoecius/dioecius), leaf type, leaf shape, floral characteristics, fruit morphology, seed size/shape, and other distinct features.
Chrysopogon aciculatus is placed under microscope. When crushed, the seed is visible. Apparently, this species of plant is angiosperm. So how do I draw the diagram of the seed(?) for Chrysopogon aciculatus? Do i have to draw just the seed with a fruit coating or do i have to draw the stamen/ovary/stigma etc of Chrysopogon aciculatus' floret?. Attached is a picture of supposedly an angiosperm of Chrysopogon aciculatus , but how do i draw the seed diagram(?)
Which of the following is correct regarding female gametophyte development in Angiosperms? The female gametophyte develops in the anther The female gametophyte develops in an ovule within an ovary A female gametophyte develops from all four megaspores produced via meiosis All cells of the female gametophyte are haploid
A) How does a seed differ from a spore? Group of answer choices A seed must start growing right away, while a spore can lie dormant through adverse environmental conditions A seed has a protective coating, while a spore does not A spore has a protective coating, while a seed does not A spore contains an embryo, while a seed contains just a single cell A seed contains a food reserve, while a spore does not B) Angiosperms are the most successful plants on Earth. One reason for this is that Group of answer choices They rely solely on wind to disperse their seeds They rely solely on wind for pollination They lack vascular tissues Pollination of angiosperms is more targeted They are unique among plants in that they do not have a haplodiplontic life cycle
Answer the diagram attached below: Determine the following structures with its ploidy level [Haploid (n) or Diploid (2n)] a) Pine Ovule with Developing Megagametophyte b) Pine Ovule with Mature Megagametophyte
The three illustrations represent the three types of relationships between the haploid gametophyte and diploid sporophyte generations found among plants. Identify the types of plants and the characteristics that belong with each of the three types of relationships. Bryophyte Ferns Seed plants ferns and horsetails mosses, liverworts, and other bryophytes Ginko biloba, spruce trees, and other gymnosperms The gametophyte requires nourishment from the sporophyte in order to survive. The sporophyte and gametophyte generations grow independently and produce differently shaped plants. The sporophyte cannot survive without nourishment from the gametophyte. Answer Bank Incorrect
Both gymnosperm and angiosperm bear seed ,then why are they classified seperatedly?
Plants and animals originated in water environments and, much later, plants invaded the land and later still, animals invaded the land. a) With respect to the four groups of plants (Bryophytes, seedless vascular plants, Gymnosperms, and Angiosperms), give the basic method of fertilization. That is, how do the sperm reach the eggs? b) What is the significance of the fertilization methods to the invasion of the land by the Gymnosperms and Angiosperms?
Marchantia is specifically considered a Liverwort, which are classified under the larger group known as [A]. The structures in the pictures are gametophytes. Provide the sex and specific term used to describe the structure on the left side [B] and on the right side is a/an [C].
