Document Summary

Lesson 1: evolutionary solutions to terrestrial environments in plants. Green algae and land plants arose from a common ancestor 1 bya: green plants are photoautotrophic=producing own food. Moss life cycle: gametophytes is dominant phase of cycle, gametes produced in tips of green leafy gametophytes angiosperm life cycle, gametophyte completely dependent on sporophyte, angiosperm plant bodies are all sporophytes. Pines: more than 100 species, produce tough needlelike leaves in clusters leaves have canals with resin, deter insect and fungal attacks. Water and mineral absorption: root hairs, most of water absorbed by plant enters through these, provide extensive surface area for water and nutrient uptake. Celsius, and unfavorable water conditions translocation: distribution of carbohydrates through phloem to plant, plant hormones, mrna, amino acids, organic acids, proteins ions sap: collection that can move up and down plant. Pressure flow hypothesis: model describing movement of carbohydrates in phloem, dissolved carbohydrates flow from a source and released at a sink, sources=photosynthetic tissues, sinks=roots, stems, fruits.

	Tracheids are responsible foranchoring the plant to a substrate.
	Pterophytes lack tracheids but haveeuphylls.
	Without tracheids colonization ofland would not have been possible.
	All of the large dominant extantland plants are tracheophytes.
	Tracheids allow for efficienttransport of water over longer distances.

2. Plants lacking well-developed conducting systems such asmosses, liverworts, and hornworts have been called

3.Select the true statements concerning gametophytes andsporophytes.

Both produce gametes.

Sporophytes are alwaysnutritionally dependent on the gametophytes.

Across all plant speciesgametophytes tend to remain small.

Only sporophytes produce eggs.

Antheridia are located on the gametophyte.

4. A waxy cuticle helps prevents desiccation. What is the costof this adaptation?

Slower H₂Otransport

Reduced gas permeability

Lowered light absorption

Increased exposure to damaging UVradiation

Increased susceptibility to pathogenic infection

only oxygen and carbon dioxide.

6.One of the main distinctions between charophytes and landplants is the possession of a cuticle. Why do modern charophyteslack a cuticle?

Desiccation is a much more commonproblem in terrestrial environments.

Cuticle layers reduce gasexchange.

Xylem tissue, seeds and stomata arefound on both plants and charophytes.
