Lecture Quiz 3 Lycophytes and Ferns Ques5on 1-­‐Lycophytes (4 pts) You are given germinated spores of Selaginella and you are asked to describe them. ADer observing under the microscope, you find: A.  One type of spore B.  No visible gametophytes aLached to the spores C.  Hermaphrodi5c gametophytes germina5ng from spores D.  Smaller (micro-­‐) and bigger (mega-­‐) spores E.  A and C F.  B and D Ques5on 2 (4 pts.) In fern sporophytes: A.  Eusporangia are ancestral, while leptosporangia are derived and more widespread B.  Sporangia are organized in sori, which are always covered by a membrane (indusium). C.  Leaves are megaphylls, they are Euphyllophytes. D.  Some ferns have microphylls, others have megaphylls E.  All of the above. F.  A and C are correct G.  B and D are correct. Meristems “Plant growth by shoot apical meristems is rather like having numerous small, 5ghtly-­‐
controlled cancers at the extremi5es” Quen5n Cronk 2010 Apical growth in land plants

Growth of Gametophyte (Non-vascular Plants)
Apical cell
Cutting faces
1 division
2 divisions
Apical cell continues to divide
Outer cell – forms leaf or side stem
Cells enlarge
Inner cell – forms stem tissue
Division forming an inner and outer cell
