Plant Biology Test 1

  1. Heterotrophic
    • an organism that cannot fix carbon and uses organic carbon for growth
    • animals
  2. autotroph
    • an organism that produces complex organic compounds from simple substances present in its surroundings, generally using energy from light or inorganic chemical reactions.
    • plants
  3. which came first heterotroph or autotroph?
    • heterotroph (aquatic)
    • autotrophs come later

    all would be classified as either archaea or eubacteria

    • no flagellated cells at any point in life cycle
  17. rhodophyta life cycle: gametophytes are n or 2n
    n, haploid
  18. rhodophyta life cycle: female gametophyte produces
    carpogonium w/ egg
  19. rhodophyta life cycle: fertilized egg develops into
    carposporophyte (diploid)
  20. rhodophyta life cycle: released carpospores develop into
    diploid tetrasporophyte
  21. rhodophyta life cycle: tetrasporophyte produces
    haploid tetraspores
  22. rhodophyta life cycle: released tetraspores develop into
    haploid gametophytes
  23. Chlorophyta
    • green algae
    • chlorophylls a and b
    • starch stored in chloroplasts
    • cell walls made of cellulose
  24. Chlorophyceae
    • chlorophylls a and b in chloroplasts
    • starch stored in chloroplasts
    • cell wall made of cellulose
  25. Ulvophyceae
    • primarily marine
    • few celled to filamentous

    Alternation of generations:

    • 1.    sporophyte: diploid
    • sporangia: contain haploid spores

    • 2.    gametophyte: haploid
    • gametangia
    • gametes
  26. Charophyceae
    • filamentous to parenchymatous  
    • some flagellated, others not  
    • haploid throughout most of life
    • diploid zygote develops attached to female gametophyte   
    • This is the group thought to lead to plants
  27. Plant adaptations for land
    • cuticle
    • stomata
    • thickened cell walls
    • protected gametes
  28. common characteristics of land plants
    • Sexual reproduction oogamous
    • Chlorophylls a and b and carotenoid pigments in chloroplasts 
    • Starch deposited in chloroplasts
    • Cellulose makes up cell walls
    • Fossils date to 430 million years ago (Silurianperiod)
    • Sporophyte, at least intially, dependent on gametophyte
  29. Hepatophyta
    • Characteristics: liverworts  
    • thallus: only slightly differentiated tissues  
    • Gametophyte dominant phase of life cycle


    Sexual reproduction:

    • antheridiophore - antheridium: sperm
    • archegoniophore - archegonium: egg

    diploid zygote - sporophyte: contains haploid spores
  30. Bryophyta
    • Characteristics: mosses
    • typical of moist habitats 
    • can withstand complete dessication

    • Gametophyte dominant phase of life 
    • -leafy gametophyte: rhizoids, prophylls


    Sexual reproduction

    • antheridia
    • 1.    splash cups
    • 2.    jacket cells
    • 3.    sperm

    • archegonia
    • 1.    neck cells
    • 2.    venter: egg, zygote

    • sporophyte
    • 1.    foot
    • 2.    seta
    • 3.    capsule: calyptra, operculum, peristome, spores
