Plasmogamy
Fusion of cytoplasm in fungi.
Karyogamy
Fusion of nuclei.
Syngamy
Combined fertilization event (plasmogamy + karyogamy).
Mycorrhizae
Mutualism: fungi provide nutrients, plants provide sugars.
Lichen Photobiont
Green algae or cyanobacteria.
Lichens and Soil Formation
Lichens break down rock and trap particles, forming soil.
Alternation of Generations
Life cycle alternating between gametophyte (n) and sporophyte (2n).
Megasporangia
Produce megaspores → female gametophytes.
Microsporangia
Produce microspores → pollen (male gametophytes).
Key Angiosperm Adaptation
