Chapter 32.4, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To draw: A model showing a series of steps by which a pollinator accomplishes pollination.
Introduction: Pollination is the process in which the pollen grains transfer from the anther of a flower to the stigma of another flower. The pollinating agents help in the conduction of pollen from one flower to another. The animals, as pollinating agents, have co-evolved with the plant species. This co-evolution leads to the special characters in the flowers of a species and adaptation of the feeding habit of the insects according to the flowers.

- G. Select your favorite flowers and determines the floral formula. The floral formula is used to describe graphically the morphology of flowering plants. A floral diagram is a representation of the different floral features of plants as they appear in cross section. Symbols are used to represent the different floral parts (CA for calyx, CO for corolla, A for androecium and G for gynoecium). Numbers of each flower part will follow the respective symbol. The number will be encircled if the parts are united or fused and is left open if otherwise. If the ovary is inferior, underline G, put a line above G if the ovary is superior. Floral formulas and diagrams have their value in taxonomic identification because they provide important information about the flower, the main basis of taxonomic identification as established by Linnaeus. determine the floral formula of the given flowers and Sketch the floral diagrams of each Gladiolus sp.

Drain off excess alcohol from the buds and aseptically excise the anthers from each bud. Remove the filaments and culture the anther on one of the agar media provided. Label the stage of development of the bud on each petri dish as the anthers are cultured. Seal the Petri dishes with parafilm. Incubate in the dark at 26 to 28ºC for 4 to 8 weeks or until small plants can be seen growing out of the anthers. Then transfer to diffuse light. Record the results of the experiment in table form and submit the report. Observation: The culture was contaminated after 8 weeks of incubation…arrow_forwardDirections: Plants have two life stages. The gametophyte life cycle, wherein a haploid spore is produced, and the sporophyte life cycle wherein there is union of the gametes. Below are different events in the development of flowering plants. Arrange them in the correct order. Place the number from 1 to 6 inside the box. The hypocotyl pushes to the soil along with the cotyledon(s). It starts as a seed which contain the miniature plant called embryo. Of the two sperm cells, one sperm fertilizes the egg cell, forming a diploid zygote; the other sperm fuses with the two polar nuclei, forming a triploid cell that develops into the endosperm Mature plant develops the gametes, releases the pollen and pollinates the flower. It is the process wherein seeds are transported, spread or moved away from the parent plant either by wind, water, animals or insect. The plant, given enough nutrients will develop in a mature stage.
