Question
Chapter 16, Problem 2WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether an individual would observe variations in all the gametes produced from one gametophyte.
Introduction:
Production of gametes is regulated by the microspore mother cell (MMC). MMC undergo reductional division and produces four microspores. These microspores undergo mitosis and produce various gametophytes, which contain haploid set of gametes.

Refer to Figure 18. Are the storage roots of sweet potato ( Ipomoea batatas) and the tubers of potato ( Solanum tuberosum) analogous or homologous? Explain the answer briefly
In tabulated form, contrast the family Poaceae from the family Cyperaceae.
Compare and contrast the alternation of generations in pines and angiosperms. This must be very detailed and include all major structures and process involves. Be sure to include when the plants are haploid or diploid. You can use a list as long as order is clear. Be sure to clearly write out structure and processes and indicate which things are the same and which are different.

- no need to explain just need to know if its a,b c, or d 1.) Alternation of generation refers to the alternation of diploid and haploid generation. What is the difference between the alternation of generation in moss and pine? a.) In moss, gametophyte is dominant; whereas, in pine, sporophyte is dominant. b.) In moss, sporophyte is dominant; whereas, in pine, gametophyte is dominant. c.) In moss, gametophyte is dependent on sporophyte; whereas, in pine, sporophyte is dependent on gametophyte. d.) In moss, meiosis occurs during gamete formation; whereas, in pine, it occurs in zygote formation. 2.) Meiosis involves two phases, meiosis I and meiosis II. This type of cell division occurs during the formation of both sperm and ovum.
