1 Flowers are defined as the reproductive structures of the angiosperms and, as such, theyhave predictable parts with well-defined functions. Upon examining a typical nower(like Figure 5-1), most of what you observe is designed to attract pollinators to theflower-colorful petals, nutritious pollen or nectar, intense scents. This is critical asplants are sessile (cannot move) and, when biotic pollinators are used, they must arriveto be effective.FLORAL STRUCTUREAntherStamenFilamentStigmaPetal(all petals combinedare the corolla)CarpelStyleOvuleOvarySepal(all sepals combinedare the calyx)ReceptaclePedicelCHayden-McNeil, LLCFigure 5-1. The basic parts of a flower.Two petals and one stamen have been removed to show internal structure.When you separate a single flower from the plant on which it is growing, the stemportion is called the pedicel, and the point where the pedicel becomes the flower iscalled the receptacle. In most flowers, the receptacle is situated below up to four ringsof flower parts of one type. Each of these rings is called a whorl. The lowest two whorlsare nonreproductive-the sepals and the petals (together called the perianth). Theperianth attaches below the two reproductive whorls of stamens and carpels. PRE-LABORATORY QUESTIONS 51. Is the flower in Figure 5-1 hermaphroditic, monoecious, or dioecious? Explain howyou know. Is it a magnoliid, a monocot, or a eudicot? Explain how you know.2. Looking at the tree in Figure 5-3, which of the three groups in Table 5-1 wouldguess are most closely related?you3. Using Table 5-1, name an apomorphy in the magnoliids, monocots, or eudicots.Using just the information in the table can you name any synapomorphies? If so,name one and what groups share it. If not, explain why you cannot. Using just theinformation in the table can you name any symplesiomorphies? If so, name oneand what groups share it. If not, explain why you cannot.4. Using Figure 5-3 as a guide, draw a phylogeny of just the magnoliids, monocots,and eudicots. Make tick marks on your tree labeling the origin of three apomor-phies from Table 5-1 (there are more than three present). You may use any threeapomorphies, so long as you have tick marks on multiple branches of the tree.5. Bring your dissection kits! If you want to wear gloves while using the toluidine bluestain, you must provide them. If you have allergies to pollen, consider taking anantihistamine before lab this week.

Can you answer all the parts to this question please In shoot apical meristems, the peripheral zone (PZ) genetic program maintains indeterminacy and allows lateral primordia initiation. (a) Explain how the PZ genetic program control (1) meristem maintenance, (2) organ separation, and (3) organ differentiation/leaf primordia outgrowth using the following keywords: KNOX genes, cytokinins, gibberellin, auxin, CUC, and AS1. (b) Explain how this genetic program is used in the formation of compound leaves. (c) Please use KNOX PZ genetic module as an example to explain process homology during compound leaf evolution.
Angiosperms are the most diverse group of plants on the planet, by far. However, using flowers for reproduction does have potential disadvantages. Briefly describe two possible challenges (e.g., problems, risks, costs, etc.) that might be associated with using flowers as a reproductive strategy.
Chrysopogon aciculatus is placed under microscope. When crushed, the seed is visible. Apparently, this species of plant is angiosperm. So how do I draw the diagram of the seed(?) for Chrysopogon aciculatus? Do i have to draw just the seed with a fruit coating or do i have to draw the stamen/ovary/stigma etc of Chrysopogon aciculatus' floret?. Attached is a picture of supposedly an angiosperm of Chrysopogon aciculatus , but how do i draw the seed diagram(?)
What are the major differences between angiosperms and gymnosperms? What are their relationship with pollinator species, please cite at least 5 pollinators species (definition, example, and how they pollinate).
Double fertilization is important to the reproductive process of an angiosperm because it produces: -a reaction that keeps the plant from dying. -nutrition for the seed. -both the zygote and the endosperm. -a double portion of endosperm. -None of these choices are true.
Two mechanical tissues of the cortex in herbaceous stem. _____________________________________________________ Which of these mechanical tissues may be photosynthetic in function? _____________________________________________________ This is the basic type of stele in the stem of all angiosperms. ____________________________________________________
using the illustrations above arrange the following statements to explain the process of pollen formation in angiosperms "using the illustrations above, arrange the following statements to explain the process of pollen formation in angiosperms"
Most of the approximately 900 species of gymnosperms are conebearing plants. On the surfaces of their cone scales are ovules, which later become seeds. These ovules are said to be naked because they are not completely enclosed by diploid tissue (as the ovules of angiosperms are). This characteristic gives the gymnosperms their name; gymnos is a Greek word meaning naked, and sperma means seed. Botanists now divide the gymnosperms into four groups: conifers, cycads, ginkgos, and gnetophytes.
What are the relationship of angiosperms and gymnosperms with pollinator species,? please cite at least 5 pollinators species (definition, example, and how they pollinate).
The term angiosperm refers to -the presence of endosperm. -the enclosure of the seeds within a fruit. -the presence of pollen. -the narrow sperm of angiosperms. -the branching of vascular veins.
