(a) Name the type of cell division.
(b) What would be the ploidy of the cells of tetrad?
WRITE ABOUT A THEME: ORGANIZATION Cells are the basicunits of structure and function in all organisms. A key featurein the life cycle of plants is the alternation of multicellularhaploid and diploid generations. Imagine a lineage of floweringplants in which mitotic cell division did not occur between theevents of meiosis and fertilization (see Figure 30.12). In a shortessay (100–150 words), describe how this change in the timingof cell division would affect the structure and life cycle of plantsin this lineage

- what are the flaws ? Plants reproduce in a pattern known as alternation of generations. A haploid gametophyte produces gametes through mitosis. The gametes fuse to form a zygote, which then grows into a diploid sporophyte. The sporophyte produces spores through meiosis, which then grow into a gametophyte and start the process over. Flowers are how angiosperms reproduce. A whorl of sepals (corolla) is at the base of the flower, followed by a whorl of petals (calyx). Inside the flower is a female organ known as a carpel and it is made of a stigma, style, and ovary. The male organ is the stamen and it is made of an anther and filament. Pollen being transferred to the style is known as pollination. Once the pollen travels down the style and reaches the egg, fertilization happens when sperm meets egg. Then, the fertilized egg and surrounding tissue develops into a seed. A seed is protected by a seed coat and contains endosperm and an embryo. The endosperm grows into a new plant while…arrow_forwardQuestion:- How has the size and longevity of the sporophyte and gametophyte changed with the evolution of plants?arrow_forwardHow may the following trends in plant evolution be adaptive to living on land?
