Flowers and Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
most common method is fragmentation; fragment of the parent breaks off and develops into an entirely new but genetically identical individual
-
Sexual Reproduction
Gametophytes
-
Megagametophyte
-
made up of 7 cells; cental cell with two polar nucli, three small antipodal cells, and an egg appartus consisting of synergids and an egg
Fertilization
When ripe pollen from an anther of the same kind of flower catches on the stigma, each pollen grain sends out a tiny threadlike tube.
-
Double Fertilization happens in angiosperms. This is because the male gamete that enters the ovule has two nuclei.
One of the male gametes fuses with the female gamete to form a diploid zygote whereas the other one forms a triploid endosperm by fusing with the diploid polar nuclei.
Flower Structure
Sepals
lowermost and outermost of the four flower appendages; thickest, toughest , and waxiest
-
-
Petals
they are located above the sepals, together making up the corolla
-
they are important to attracting the right pollinators based on their size, shape, color, and arrangement of petals
Stamens
they are above the petals, known collectively as the androecium

The Plant Life Cycle
-
the life cycle of trees, shrubs, and herbs is called the sporophyte phase or sporophyte generation; they produce haploid spores

Diversity and Scale
-

-
-
-
Alpha Diversity; number of species or growth that occur at a local, smalls site
Species Abundance Distribution:plot of the number of species in a region into various abundance classes
Diversity and Latitude
-
evolutionary history is also a contributor to the differences in diversity between tropic and higher latitudes
Non-vascular Plants: Mosses, Liverworts, and Hornworts
