Plants Must Reproduce Makes more plants Ensures the continuation of the species Plants can reproduce _____

Sexual Reproduction in Plants Usually needs pollinators (e. g. bees, birds, butterflies). Flowers attract insects, birds, and other animals. _____ Some self-pollinate, while others cannot. _____

Asexual Reproduction in Plants _____ Does not involve joining of cells. Creates new plants identical to parent plant.

Sexual Reproduction in Plants Gametes are created by meiosis Meiosis: _____ Gametes produced in special structures called gametangia ……………… Male gametangia: antheridia

Sexual Reproduction in Plants can be bisexual or unisexual Bisexual (monoecious): ______ Unisexual (dioecious): ______ Bisexual plants can’t always self-fertilize Sometimes incompatible Cross-fertilization preferred

THIS SLIDE HAS BEEN REMOVED

Sporophyte Diploid individual Sporocytes (fertile cells) produce haploid spores via meiosis _____

Sexual Reproduction in Plants Liverworts and hornworts ………………. Sperm release and fertilization require moisture (heavy dew or rain) _______ Spores may germinate immediately upon deposition or undergo a period of dormancy first Liverwort with sporophytes growing from archegonia

Sexual Reproduction in Plants Spore plants Includes seed plants and cryptogams (no flowers or seeds) Sporophyte stage dominant Seed plants ________ Cryptogams Spores shed from plant after producing gametophyte ________

Sexual Reproduction in Plants There are two groups of seed plants 1. Gymnosperms 2. Angiosperms There are two types of spores Megaspores: large spores; ________ Microspores: small spores; _______ Male gametophytes called pollen grains

Gymnosperms and Angiosperms Produce seeds _______ Passageway through layers on megasporangium Ovule matures as seed One megasporocyte ______ ……………. . ……………… Microspores develop inside microsporangia Pollen grains develop tube to pass sperm to egg ______

Gymnosperms Cycads ______ Pollen grains shed from microsporangia ………………. . Ovule produces pollination droplet Wind-borne pollen grains attach to droplet Droplet pulled back into ovule ______

Gymnosperms Pines ______ Sporophyte may become a large tree Pollen has air-filled wings between layers of pollen grain wall ______ Scales on female gametophyte separate and pollen sticks to pollination droplet Droplet ……………. . Fertilization occurs around 14 months after pollination

Angiosperms ______ Seeds enclosed during development in structure called pistil or carpel ______ Gametophytes don’t have archegonia Pollen transferred to surface of megaspore ______ One joins egg and forms the zygote Other joins two nuclei of female gametophyte to form storage tissue that serves as food source for embryo After fertilization, ovule increases to mature seed size

Angiosperms Some monoecious species Corn Hickory Walnut Pecan Oak Some ……………

Angiosperms Microspores develop pollen grains (male gametophytes) Forms generative cell and tube cell _______ Pollination: transfer of pollen grains from anther of stamen to stigma of pistil Some flowers can self-pollinate (e. g. peas and tomatoes) Others need pollinators (e. g. insects) to transfer pollen between flowers

Angiosperms One megasporocyte ……………. . ______ Only one enlarges, others degenerate Enlarged cell divides into seven (with eight nuclei) ______ Three nuclei move to end opposite micropyle (opening where pollen tube enters) and become antipodal cells, which degenerate _____ Last two nuclei help guide pollen tube, then disintegrate

THIS SLIDE HAS BEEN REMOVED

Angiosperms Pollen passes down the pollen tube, through micropyle, and into gametophyte One sperm fertilizes egg nucleus Other unites with two nuclei in large central cell ______ Endosperm nucleus Divides into endosperm tissue _____

Angiosperms Ovary, ovules, and zygote grow Embryo develops Seed: _____ Seeds become dormant and form hard seed coats ______ Seeds ……………. . Cotyledons can help digest and absorb endosperm, be food sources themselves, or become photosynthetic leaves above the soil surface

Angiosperms

Asexual Reproduction in Plants Two basic types 1. ______ 2. ______

Asexual Reproduction Using Fragments The body of the plant fragments. Pieces fall off. _____ Fragmenting Plants Ferns Liverworts Mosses Succulents Willows and poplars

Asexual Reproduction Using Fragments Piece of stem or roots from some plants can be cut off and planted. ______

Asexual Reproduction Using Special Structures ______ No union of sex cells In flowering plants, organs include: Rhizomes Tubers Stolons Corms Bulbs

Rhizomes Long, fleshy, ……………. . Branch to grow new plants _____

Tubers Enlarged tips of underground rhizomes or stolons _____ Potatoes are tubers Eyes are buds and can grow into new individuals

Corms Vertical, fleshy, underground stems _____ Secondary cormlets can grow into new baby plants Gladioli have corms

Bulbs Small bit of stem tissue ……………… Undergo period of dormancy Grow into new plants ______ Onions form bulbs
