- This figure summarises the life cycle of a seed plant. The blue circles named A and B represent the sexually mature individual of each phase of the life cycle. 1) What is this life cycle called? 2) Plant B is in the diploid phase. What is another name for this plant? 3) If A is the haploid phase, in which phase would you find sepals? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase 4) If B is the haploid phase, in which phase would you find synergids? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase 5) If B is the diploid phase, in which phase would you find the nucellus? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase 6) If A is the diploid phase, in which phase would you find the sperm cells? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase 7) If A is the diploid phase, in which phase would you find selection on flower colour? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding…arrow_forwardThe drooping, bell-like flower Aquilegia canadensis is adapted for cross-pollination. However, if the plant has not been pollinated previously, self-pollination can occur. However, if cross pollination occurs after self-pollination takes place, the pollen from cross pollination reaches the style before the pollen from self-pollination. Using course concepts and vocabulary 1) Provide a reasoning for this phenomenon. 2) Would this adaptation for reproduction be beneficial for the plant?arrow_forwardCan you answer all the parts to this question please (a) What are the advantages of the self-incompatibility (SI) system in plants?

- Which of the following comparisons between the moss life cycle and fern life cycle are correct? A) Mosses have flagellated sperm that need water to reach the female gamete, while the sperm of ferns are unflagellated and are not dependent on water.B) The sporophyte generation is smaller than the gametophyte generation in mosses, but the sporophyte generation is much larger than the gametophyte generation in ferns.C) The spores are produced in capsules on stalks in mosses but in small structures called sori on the underside of leaves in ferns.D) The gametes are produced in gametangia in mosses but in specialized structures on the underside of leaves in ferns.E) Both kinds of plants depend on wind for dispersal of spores.arrow_forwardDefine the term inflorescence.
