____________________ 24 an elongated, spindle-shaped, sterile, hygroscopic cell

____________________ 25 a small mass of vegetative tissue functioning in asexual reproduction in a gametophyte

____________________ 26 the meiospore of a vascular plant which gives rise to a female gametophye

____________________ 27 the condition of producing only one sort of spore

____________________ 28 membranous growth of the epidermis of a fern leaf that protects and covers a sorus

____________________ 29 an algal-like filamentous growth which is the germination product of the meiospore in some bryophytes

____________________ 30 common name for all vascular plants

____________________ 31 a cluster of meiosporangia

____________________ 32 the extension of the gametophyte in the thallose liverwort, Marchantia, which contains the antheridia

________ 42 parasitic sporophyte when mature

________ 43 thallose gametophyte

________ 44 a dependent leafless axis, consisting of a foot, seta, green capsule at first, and has several specialized structures

III. In the space provided, give the ploidy number (i.e. N, 2N, 3N, 4N, 5N, N+N etc.) for the following structures or plants

______57. in a plant with all the nuclei in an embryo sac being 2N, the ploidy number of the endosperm

______58. nucellus

______59. megasporocyte

______60. megaphyll

______61. integument

______62. staminate cone scale

______63. the petals in a flower with parts in 5's

______64. gemma

______65. whorled microphylls

______66. archegonium in a whisk fern

______67. cotyledons

______68. companion cells

______69. calyptra

______70. seed coat

IV. How do pollen grains differ from spores or sperm?

V. Do gemmae differ from meiospores? Defend your answer.






VI. In the space provided diagram a longitudinal section through the structure for the plant indicated. Label all parts.

1. Male strobilus of a pine
2. Strobilus of a horsetail
3. Strobilus of Lycopodium
4. Strobilus of Selaginella

VII. The following genotypes are found in plants. Each letter, regardless of whether it is capitalized or lower case, represents a gene found in a chromosome; the capital letters represent dominant genes, the lower case represents recessive genes. The same letters represent homologous chromosomes. The total number of chromosomes represented are all the chromosomes found in this particular plant. You have studied life cylces in the bryophytes, pteridophytes, gymnosperms, and angiosperms.

In which portion of the life cycle and in which group of plants could the following genotypes be found? (Remember none of the plant groups as well as all of the plant groups are possible as an answer)
