Angiosperms (Angiosperm Life Cycle (Fertilization Process (Other sperm…

- - - - triploid cell becomes food for embryo
- - - - Nectar (carbohydrates)
      - Pollen (protein)
  - - - pollinators consider difference in color and scent when choosing plants
      - bats and moths can't really see--> go by scent
  - - - Dispersal via interior (no clue)
      - Dispersal via exterior (on their bodies)
- - - - aids in dispersal
      - fleshy or dry fruit
      - protects seeds
  - - - plants of the same species can make reproduction more efficient because of structure
      - specific breeding systems
    - - Stamens
        
        produce microspores, develop into pollen grains that enclose male gametophyte
        
        consists of a filament (stalk) and an anther (sac where spores are produced)
        
        contain microsporophyll
      - Petals
        
        brightly colored to aid in attracting pollinators
        
        sterile agian
        
        found inside of sepals
      - Sepals
        
        sterile floral organ
        
        Start at base of flower, usually green and enclose flower before it opens
        
        fairly leaf like and photosynthetic
      - Carpels
        
        Make-up
        
        Style: leads from stigma to ovary at base of carpel
        
        Ovary: at base of carpel, contains one or more ovules
        
        stigma tip of carpel, sticky, receives pollen
        
        megasporophylls that make megaspores to become female gametophyte
        
        flower may have one or more carpels
- - - - other dicots grouped into smaller lineages (above)
