Document Summary
Sperm producing structure in most land plants except angiosperms. Egg producing structure in most land plants except angiosperms. Group of fungi, an aquatic group thought to be most similar to ancestral protist from which fungi arose (aquatic and soil environments, having flagellated zoospores and little or no mycelium) Describing a cell or fungal mycelium containing 2 nuclei that are genetically distinct. A cell or individual organism with 2 sets of chromosomes (2n), 1 set inherited from maternal parent and 1 set from paternal parent. Plant that nourishes its embryos inside its own body. Gamete-forming structure found in all land plants except angiosperms. Contains a sperm-producing antheridium and an egg producing archegonium. Haploid reproductive cell that can fuse with another haploid cell to form a zygote. Most multicellular eukaryotes have 2 distinct forms of gametes: egg cells (ova) and sperm cells. In organisms undergoing alternation of generations, the multicellular haploid form that arises from a single haploid spore and produces gametes.
