Life Cycle Of Bryophytes
A group of plant species that utilize spores, instead of flowers or seeds, for reproduction is known as a bryophyte. The non-vascular seedless plants which include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts are classified as bryophytes. There are over 20,000 specā€¦
Plant Biometry
Biometry is the science that deals with the statistical investigation of biological observations and phenomena. It is very important in the development of sound and effective agricultural research practices. It is a Greek-derived word wherein 'bio' meansā€¦
Life Cycle Of Gymnosperms
Gymnosperms, which translates to "naked seeds," are a diverse group of seed plants. The angiosperms are a sister group to one group of gymnosperms (the Gnetales), making the gymnosperms a paraphyletic group, according to the "anthophyte" hypothesis. The ā€¦
Life Cycle Of Pteridophytes
They are the first land plants with vascular tissues (xylem and phloem). These vascular plants are classified as vascular cryptogams because they do not contain flowers or seeds. These plants are the most common and visible group of land plants, accountiā€¦
Life Cycle Of Angiosperms
An angiosperm is a word obtained from the two Greek words angio, which refers to "covered," and sperms, which means "bean". Flowering plants are what the angiosperms are called. The flowers of a plant develop into fruits, which contain seeds.

SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY

INTERPRET THE DATA The grass Dichanthelium lanuginosum lives in hot soils and houses fungi of the genus Curvularia as endophytes. Researchers tested the impact of Curvularia on the heat tolerance of this grass. They grew plants without (Eāˆ’) and with (E+) Curvularia endophytes at different temperatures and measured plant mass and the number of new shoots the plants produced. Draw a bar graph for plant mass versus temperature and interpret it.

Plants Are Adapted to Life on Land Ā  Plants developed from a group of green algae (members of Kingdom Protista) called the charophytes. Like these green algae, plants have a life cycle called the alternation of generations. Draw a diagram of the basic life cycle of a plant, showing the alternation of the sporophyte and gametophyte generations. Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Unlike green algae that live in water, plants live on land. Being surrounded by air means that they risk losing too much water through evaporation and dying from dehydration. Name 3 characteristics of plants that help them conserve water and protect them from drying.
Which statement about bryophytes is not correct? Ā  A. They lack xylem and phloem Ā  B. The dominant phase of their life cycle is diploid Ā  C. They are the first land plants Ā  D. Sperm can be aided in their travel to the egg by insects Ā  E. They have cells with 9+2 flagella
Which of the following characteristics of plants is absent intheir closest relatives, the charophyte algae?(A) chlorophyll b(B) cellulose in cell walls(C) sexual reproduction(D) alternation of multicellular generations
