15. Seed plants are what? heterosporous:
microsporangia > microspores > male gametophyte > sperm
microsporangia > microspores > female gametophyte > eggs
16. What are most
other plants? homosporous
sporangium > spores > bisexual gametophyte >
17. Where can the gaps
in tracheids be sperm, eggs in their secondary cell walls
found?
18. define cuticle A waxy layer that prevents water loss from stems and leaves
19. define stomata Have pores that allow gas exchange in photosynthetic tissues.
20. What is happening when The turgor pressure is reduced
a plant wilts?
21. What is a flower? A modified shoot
22. What is infructescence? Mature inflorescence, with flowers replaced by fruits
23. What are the two
types of 1. determinate
inflorescence? 2. indeterminate
24. Define determinate is monotelic and is the main axis of the inflorescence ends in a
in- florescence? flower
25. Define indeterminate
in- florescence?
is polytelic in which the growing point produces only lateral flowers
or partial inflorescence
