Plants and Colonization of Land ( Chapter 26, Pg. 562)
-Megaphylous are the most widespread plants, called chloric plants
-Gymnosperm: travels, has no flower, and produced cones
-ex. Pine
-Ferns produce spores
-The difference between fern and genosperm:
-Fern has no seeds (seedless)
-Gymnosperm has seeds (seed)
-Produces gametophyte (n)
-A gametophyte is a structure that produces gametes, that will be either male or
female
-Female: Archegonia
-eggs are therefore female
-means one
-produces ovaries
-Male: antheridium
-sperm is male (this is a spore with a flagella)
-produces male gametes
-Sporophyte
-Vascular system in plants is the:
-Xylem

-transports water and nutrients (like minerals)
-Phloem
-photosynthesis
-Moses don’t have vascular system
-therefore they are non-vascular plants
-they do not produce seeds
-therefore seedless non-vascular plants
-Fern is a seedless vascular plants
-these are carniferus plants
-Floric plants are seed (producing) vascular plants
-Two kind of cell division:
-mitosis
-occurs in any other tissue
-meiosis
-occurs in the process of formation of gametes
-Sporophyte (2n)
-meiosis occurs -> haploud spores -> ganetophyte -> mitosis -> fertilization ->
zygote produced
Introduction to the Plant Kingdom
-All plants defined in this text are multicellular, eukaryotes, photosynthetic, and
autotrophes
-autotrophes means that they are able to synthesize their own food from organic
material
-Plants have cell walls made of cellulose
-As plants have adapted to the terrestrial environment, from an aquatic environment,
complete bodies with the extensive specialization and have evolved
-waxy cuticle
-carbon dioxide and oxygen diffusion through stomata
-photosynthetic cells contain chlorophyll a), chlorophyll b), and a variety of yellow
and orange cartenoid pigments
-Carbohydrates are stored in the form of starch, generally in chloroplasts and other
plastids
-chloroplast is one of the plastids
-Mitosis occurs in all plants, proceeding through the typical phases (ex. telophase)
-Generalized view of plant reproduction of life Cycles PICTURE
-A- sexual and sexual reproduction
-sexual is the transfer of genetic material

Document Summary
Photographic atlas will be useful for labs. Final exam: plants 15, animals 30% Plants and colonization of land ( chapter 26, pg. Megaphylous are the most widespread plants, called chloric plants. Gymnosperm: travels, has no ower, and produced cones. A gametophyte is a structure that produces gametes, that will be either male or female. Sperm is male (this is a spore with a agella) Floric plants are seed (producing) vascular plants. Meiosis occurs -> haploud spores -> ganetophyte -> mitosis -> fertilization -> zygote produced. All plants de ned in this text are multicellular, eukaryotes, photosynthetic, and autotrophes. Autotrophes means that they are able to synthesize their own food from organic material. As plants have adapted to the terrestrial environment, from an aquatic environment, complete bodies with the extensive specialization and have evolved. Generalized view of plant reproduction of life cycles picture. Sexual is the transfer of genetic material.
