Structural Specialization
ƒ
Earliest plants were probably
ƒ
Over time developed more defined

ƒ
Some plants developed
– an advantage in
Water and Nutrient Transport
Roots, stems, and leaves have
(not found in
)
Two types of tissues conduct materials:
ƒ
– Carries H2O & inorganic nutrients in one direction, from roots to stem & leaves
ƒ
– distributes organic compounds (sugars, amino acids, etc.) in any direction,
depending on plant needs
Preventing Water Loss
ƒ
Development of
– a waxy waterproof layer on surface of leaves, stems and other aerial parts
– helps conserve water; slows evaporation
ƒ
– pores on surface of
– allow the exchange of

Reproduction
Early land plants needed
for reproduction
ƒ
sperm had to swim through

probably lived in
Overtime developed
and
that protected reproductive cells from drying
out
Reproduction
ƒ
– contains a reproductive cell (
) surrounded by a hard outer
– widespread dispersal of plant species
ƒ
– Multicellular embryo (
– may contain
) surrounded by a protective
, nourishment for the developing embryo
– more effective at
than spores

Spore versus Gamete
ƒ
(n)
– can develop into a new organism
ƒ
(n)
– sperm, egg
– gamete must combine with another gamete to produce a
Bryophytes
Bryophytes
ƒ
– mosses
ƒ
– hornworts
ƒ
– liverworts

Bryophyte Morphology
Gametophyte (eg. Polytrichum moss)
ƒ
– mass of green, branched, one-cell-thick filaments
ƒ
– colorless, tubular single cells or filaments
– anchoring
ƒ

Lecture 2 - Land Plants
– mature, gamete-producing structure
Bryophyte Morphology
Sporophyte
ƒ
– absorbs nutrients from gametophyte
ƒ
– elongated stalk
ƒ
– site of spore production
ƒ
– protective cap of gametophyte tissue
ƒ
– ring of tooth-like segments
Bryophyte Reproduction
ƒ
– found on the sporophyte generation of a plant
– spore mother cells - meiosis - spores (
)
ƒ
– walls - polymer
– most durable organic material, makes walls very tough and resistant to
– grow into multicellular, haploid gametophytes by mitosis

Lecture 2 - Land Plants
Bryophyte Reproduction
ƒ
– formation of gametes, two types
ƒ
– a vase-shaped organ produces a single egg cell retains egg in base of organ
ƒ
– produce many sperm cells that are released to environment when mature

Fern Morphology
ƒ
– cluster of sporangia; shape & location used for identification
ƒ
(+ or -)
– covering over a sorus; often thin and fragile; shape, attachment and location
used for identification
ƒ
(+ or -)
– a belt of cells with horseshoe thickened walls surrounding the sporangium
– some cells are unthickened; as the sporangium dries out they break to release
the spores
