Plant Diversity I (Seedless)- Lab

Archaeplastida

Supergroup that includes red and green algae and the land plants

Rhodophyta

Red algae name

chlorophyll a and phycobiliproteins

What is red algae composed of?

Viridiplante

Green algae and land plant name

chlorophyll a and b and store starch inside the cholorplasts

What is green algae and land plants made of?

Phycoerythrin

Photosynthesis pigment that masks the green chlorophyll giving red algae its distinct color

Rhodophyta (Red algae)

Completely lacks flagella and centrioles

Coralline algae

Deposits calcium carbonate or magnesium carbonate in their cell wall

Viridiplantae

Expanded “plant” kingdom

Viridiplante

Contain chloroplasts with photosynthesis pigments chlorophyll a and b which results in the green color

Chlorophyta and Embryophyta

Two major lineages of Viridiplante

Green plants

What is Cholorphyta?

Chlorophyta

Flagellated cells

Biflagellated and cup-shared chloroplast

Chlorophyta gametes composition

Embryophyta

What is are land plants?

Embryophyta

Multicellular embryo (a developing plant)

Alternation of generations

The life cycle process of all land plants

Gametophyte

Gamete

Sporophyte

Spore

Haploid

Are gametes haploid or diploid?

Diploid

Are spores haploid or diploid?

Bryophtes

Non-vascular plants

Non-vascular plants

Do not possess vascular tissue (xylem and phloem)

Byophytes

All of these produce flagellated sperm

Mosses,liverworts,hornworts

Three lineages of non-vascular plants

Phylum Bryophyta

True Mosses

Mosses

Includes plants that do not have true leaves, true stems or true roots

Protonemata

Growing into many long, thin strands

Gametophore

A protonema eventually forms a bud, out which grows____

Gametophore

The leafy structure that is the most noticeable portion of a moss life cycle

Paraphyes

Thread like structures that extend above the archegonia and antheridia to protect them

monoecious

Capable of growing both archegonia and antheridia on the same gametophore

Dioecious

Having either antheridia or archegonia on one gametophore, but not both

Antheridia

When mature, contain many sperm

Archegonia

When mature, contain an individual egg and a long, narrow neck canal through which sperm swim down to access the egg from the environment

operculum

Protected by a rimmed lid

Phylum Marchantiophyta

Liverworts

Thalloid

Contain a flattened body that is typically 10-30 cells thick

Gametophores

In Liverworts archegonia and antheridia are contained in a stalk like structure called ____

Lycophyta and Monilophyta

Seedless Vascular Plants

Sporophylls

Most ferns and fern allies produce this

Lycophyta

Club Mosses, Spike Mosses and Quillworts

Monilophyta

Ferns, Horsetails, and Whisk Ferns
