26.3 Angiosperms
26.3 Angiosperms
- The compound ephedrine comes from the small, scale-like leaves of the plant.
- Because it is similar to amphetamines, its use is restricted to prescription drugs.
- Some parts of Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia have gnetum species.
- The oddest member of the group is Welwitschia.
- Some plants are hundreds of years old and produce only two leaves.
- The male and female gametes are produced on different plants.
- The strangeness of Welwitschia is described in a video.
- The angiosperms--or flowering plants-- have evolved to dominate most of the land.
- The Anthophyta has more than 300,000 species and is second only to insects in terms of diversity.
- There are flowers in a garden.
- Plants are abundant in the landscape.
- The vivid colors of flowers are adapted to pollination by animals like insects, birds, and bats.
- The reproductive structures of flowers and fruits are responsible for the success of angiosperms.
- The flower's function is to ensure pollination and protect a developing embryo.
- The colors and patterns on flowers can be used to identify birds and bats that have coevolved with them.
- Some patterns can only be seen in the ultraviolet range of light.
- For some people, flowers are a reliable source of food.
- The scent of the flower helps to find its pollinators.
- Some flies and beetles prefer scents that signal putrefaction, which is why sweet scents attract bees and butterflies.
- The ovule and developing embryo are protected by flowers.
- The fruit is used for seed protection and dispersal.
- The dispersal strategies that help spread seeds are reflected by the different fruit structures or tissues on fruit.
- The flowers are organized around a central receptacle.
- The structures of the flowers are the same, even though they vary greatly in appearance.
- The flower is usually attached to the plant by the peduncle.
- There are some exceptions to the fact that Sepals are usually photosynthetic organs.
- The corolla in lilies and tulips has three sepals and three petals that are almost identical.
- The sexual organs are located at the center of the flower.
- The gynoecium may be located deeper in the receptacle, with the other floral structures attached above it.
- Each of the carpels in the female reproductive unit has a stigma, style, and ovary.
- Carpels can be singular, multiple, or fused.
- The anther is supported by the filament, where the microspores are produced by meiosis and develop into haploid pollen grains.
- The structure of a flower is depicted.
- Male and female floral organs are produced by perfect flowers.
- Some flowers have more than one carpel, but the flower shown has one.
- The gynoecium is made up of all the carpels.
- The main phase of an angiosperm's life cycle is the adult phase.
- Gymnosperms are Heterosporous.
- The male and female gametophytes will form an ovule that contains female gametophytes.
- Inside the anther's microsporangia, male sporocytes divide by meiosis and give rise to haploid microspores, which in turn give rise to pollen grains.
- There are two cells in a pollen grain, one of which will become a sperm and the other will become a pollen tube cell.
- The life cycle of a plant is shown.
- The embryo sac and the pollen grain are the actual gametophytes.
- The process of double fertilization is unique to angiosperms.
- The megasporangium is protected by two layers of integuments and the ovary wall.
- There are three small and one large haploid megaspores within each megasporangium.
- The megaspore divides three times to produce eight nuclei in the female gametophyte or embryo sac.
- There are three cells located at the embryo sac.
- The three cells at one pole become synergids.
- The center cell has two nuclei.
- The endosperm of the seed will eventually be produced by this cell.
- The mature embryo sac contains one egg cell, two synergids or "helper" cells, three antipodal cells, and a central cell with two polar nuclei.
- When a pollen grain reaches the stigma, a pollen tube extends from the grain, grows down the style, and enters through the micropyle: an opening in the integuments of the ovule.
- The embryo sac contains sperm.
- There is a double fertilization event.
- The sperm and egg combine to form a diploid embryo.
- The tissue is used as a food reserve for the embryo.
- The basis for the two major groups of angiosperms is the difference in the number of leaves.
- The seed food reserves are stored outside of the embryo.
- The embryo is protected by a layer of integuments forming the coat, the endosperm with food reserves, and at the center.
- Male and female flowers are carried on the same plant.
- There are male and female flowers in dioecious plants.
- Crosspollination can be accomplished by either a physical agent (wind or water) or an animal.
- There is a female inflorescence.
- There is a male inflorescence.
- The walls of the ovary begin to form fruit as the seed develops.
- As the seeds grow, the ovary enlarges as the seed forms.
- Vegetables are actually fruits.
- Tomatoes, bell peppers, and string beans are all technically fruits because they are derived from the thick ovary tissue.
- The winged maple "helicopter seeds" or whirligig are also fruits.
- Only a few of the fruit categories are actually sweet.
- Fruit that is mature can be dry.
- Fruit with flesh include the familiar berries, peaches, apples, grapes, and tomatoes.
- Some examples of dry fruit are rice, wheat, and nuts.
- Not all fruits are derived from the ovary.
- Some fruits are derived from different parts of a flower.
- Some fruits, like watermelon and orange, have rinds.
- Fruits are an agent of seed dispersal.
- The dispersal mode is reflected in the variety of shapes and characteristics.
- Light dry fruits of trees and dandelions are carried by the wind.
- Water moves coconuts.
- The seeds are dispersed through the feces of the herbivore.
- Other fruits have hooks to hold onto fur and hitch rides on animals.
- Modern angiosperms are thought to be a monophyletic group, which means that they originated from a single ancestor.
- There are three major groups within the angiosperms.
- Basal angiosperms are a group of plants that are thought to have branched off before the separation of the monocots.
- They are categorized in different ways.
- The Magnoliids, which include the star anise, are part of the angiosperms.
- The structure of the cotyledons, pollen grains, and other structures are used to differentiate the monocots and dicots.
- The dicots form a multi-branched group that includes roses, cabbages, sunflowers, and mints.
- The magnolias, laurels, and peppers are part of the Magnoliidae.
- Magnolias are tall trees with large, fragrant flowers and are considered archaic.
- The magnolia flower's petals are undifferentiated and called tepals.
- The reproductive parts are arranged in a spiral around a cone-shaped receptacle.
- There are fragrant leaves and flowers in the trees.
- The Laurales are small trees and shrubs that grow in warmer climates.
- The bay laurel, cinnamon, and spice bush are familiar plants in this group.
- There is a cluster of carpels above the inflorescence, which have shed their pollen.
- The petals and sepals of the flower are undifferentiated.
- Black pepper is the main product that was traded along spice routes.
- The leaf venation is similar to the monocots and the dicots.
- The roots of the plant are at the bottom of the lake and are visible from the surface of the water.
- The red seeds are starting to appear on the fruit in its final stage.
- There are veins that run parallel to and along the length of the leaves and flower parts that are arranged in a three- or six-fold symmetry.
- Most of the time, true woody tissue is not found in monocots.
- The primary and secondary thickening meristems form the trunk in palm trees.
- The feature is still present in the modern monocots.
- There is a ring in the roots of the stem that holds the scattered tissue.
- There is no major tap root in the root system.
- Adventitious roots emerge from the leaves.
- Plants such as the true lilies (Liliopsida), orchids, yucca, asparagus, grasses, and palms can be found in the monocots.
- The world's major crops are flowering plants.
- Flower parts come in four, five, or many whorls, and Veins form a network in leaves.
- In monocots, the stem has a ring in it.
- The pollen that is trisulcate or triporate is produced by most eudicots.
- The root system is usually anchored by a single root.
- Two-thirds of flowering plants are Eudicots.
- Table 26.1 summarizes the major differences between monocots and Eudicots.
- Identification of a plant as a monocot or eudicot is not always easy because some species may exhibit characteristics that are associated with the other group.
