Asexual Reproduction
• Asexual reproduction is natural “cloning.”
Parts of the plant, such as leaves or
stems, produce roots and become an
independent plant.
• List some benefits and some drawbacks
to asexual reproduction.
Sexual Reproduction
• Sexual reproduction requires fusion of
male cells in the pollen grain with female
cells in the ovule.
• List some advantages and drawbacks to
sexual reproduction.
Terms to know:
• Haploid: having a single set of
chromosomes in each cell.
• Diploid: having two sets of
chromosomes in each cell.
• Mitosis: cell division, which produces
two genetically identical cells.
• Meiosis: reduction division, which
produces four haploid reproductive cells.
Plant Life Cycle
Alternation of Generations
• Plants have a double life cycle with two
distinct forms:
• Sporophyte: diploid, produce haploid
spores by meiosis (reduction division).
• Gametophyte: haploid, produce
gametes by mitosis (simple cell
division).
Non-flowering plants
• Mosses, ferns, and related plants have
motile, swimming sperm.
• What kind of environmental conditions
would be required for reproduction in
these plants?
• What kinds of limits does external
reproduction impose on these plants?
Moss Life Cycle
Fern Life Cycle
Conifers
• Conifers (also non-flowering plants) have
reduced gametophytes.
• Male gametophyte is contained in a dry
pollen grain.
• Female gametophyte is a few cells
inside of the structures that become
the seed.
Conifer life cycle
Conifer pollination
• Conifers are wind-pollinated plants.
• Chance allows some pollen to land on
the scales of female cones.
• Pollen germinates, grows a pollen tube
into the egg to allow sperm to fertilize the
egg.
• What are some advantages and
disadvantages to wind pollination?

Flowers
Pollen go-betweens
• Showy flowers are the result of selection
for more efficient pollination strategies.
• Flower parts are modified leaves. Those
that were brightly colored attracted
insects in search of pollen.
• Why would insects search for pollen?
What other rewards do flowers offer?
• What are advantages and disadvantages
to relying on insects as pollinators?
Flower Parts
Incomplete flowers
• Flowers are complete if they have all
parts, and perfect if they have both male
and female parts.
• Grass flowers: incomplete, usually
imperfect (separate male and female
flowers)
• A tulip is complete (though the sepals
are the same color as the petals) and
perfect.

Fruits
From ovary to fruit
• The ovary of the flower contains the
ovules.
• As fertilized ovules develop into seeds,
the ovary wall develops into the fruit.
• In science, the term “fruit” refers to a
mature ovary that contains seeds.

Seed dormancy
• Seeds can remain dormant in the soil for
long periods of time. Dormancy helps
ensure that seeds only germinate when
conditions are right.
• When we weed or cultivate a bare patch
of soil, the weeds that sprout up
immediately usually come from the “seed
bank” already in the soil.
Breaking dormancy
• Seeds require moisture and the right
temperature to germinate.
• In addition, some seeds germinate only
after certain environmental signals:
• Drying
• Temperature (period of cold or heat)
• Disruption of the seed coat

life cycles to explain why most mosses
and ferns live in moist environments, but
flowering plants can live just about
anywhere.
