- INSTRUCTION: Write True or False. 1. An aggregate fruit develops from the fused ovaries of a floral cluster. 2. In the fern leaf, the clusters of sporangia are called sporophylls. 3. The plumule is the first seed leaf that absorbs and digests nutrients needed for seed germination. 4. A false fruit develops from the expansion of the hypanthium or floral tube that encloses the ovary. 5. The endocarp is the edible fleshy part of the fruit. 6. In a bean seed, the part of the embryo which develops into the leaves and upper portion of the stem is known as the hypocotyl. 7. The embryos of corn and other grass seeds are partially enclosed in a protective sheath called the coleorhiza. 8. The embryonic shoot system is the radicle. 9.

- TOPIC: SEEDLESS VASCULAR PLANTS IDENTIFICATION 1. These are specialized cells arranged adjacent to each other and are associated with other cells to form the xylem tissue, allowing a more streamlined water conduction. 2. These are lycophytes with true roots, rhizomes, erect aerial stems, microphylls, and a dominant sporophyte stage. 3. The sporophyll in seedless vascular plants that is arranged into a cluster forming a club-shaped cone.arrow_forwardwhat are the flaws ? Plants reproduce in a pattern known as alternation of generations. A haploid gametophyte produces gametes through mitosis. The gametes fuse to form a zygote, which then grows into a diploid sporophyte. The sporophyte produces spores through meiosis, which then grow into a gametophyte and start the process over. Flowers are how angiosperms reproduce. A whorl of sepals (corolla) is at the base of the flower, followed by a whorl of petals (calyx). Inside the flower is a female organ known as a carpel and it is made of a stigma, style, and ovary. The male organ is the stamen and it is made of an anther and filament. Pollen being transferred to the style is known as pollination. Once the pollen travels down the style and reaches the egg, fertilization happens when sperm meets egg. Then, the fertilized egg and surrounding tissue develops into a seed. A seed is protected by a seed coat and contains endosperm and an embryo. The endosperm grows into a new plant while…arrow_forward4 need handwritten cursive answer Clade: Basal Angiosperms Order: Piperales Family: Aristolochiaceae Representative species: Aristolochia gigantea Habit: Inflorescence: Floral Symmetry: Number of Sepals: Number of Petals: Number of Filaments: Number of Stigma: Ovary position: Fruit type: Other characteristics:arrow_forward
