Plant Life Cycles
Meiosis Review
• Cell starts diploid
– Ex: Human = 46
chromosomes
• Cell divides twice to
create 4 cells
• End result: Haploid
cells
– Ex: Human = 23
chromosomes
• Cells created: Sperm,
egg, pollen
Alternation of generations (In general)
• Diploid zygote created
• Diploid zygote grows
into a diploid
sporophyte
• Haploid spores created
by meiosis
• Haploid spores grow
into haploid
gametophytes
– Male gametophyte
creates haploid sperm
– Female gametophyte
creates haploid egg
• Sperm and egg fuse to
make a diploid zygote
• Cycle restarts

Moss Life Cycle
1)Moss
gametophytes
grow near the
ground
(haploid stage)
2) Through water,
sperm from the male
gametophyte will
swim to the female
gametophyte to
create a diploid
zygote
3) Diploid sporophyte
will grow from zygote
4) Sporophyte will
create and release
haploid spores

SPOROPHYTE
Conifer Life Cycle
1) Male and female seed cones grow in adult sporophytes
2) Pollen grains released from the male seed cones
-- Pollen is the male gametophyte
Let’s zoom into the female seed cone
3) Pollen grain sticks to the female ovule
4) Pollen tube grows from the male spore
5) Two nuclei transfer into female spore
- one fertilizes the egg
6) Diploid embryo develops (sporophyte stage restarts)
7) After seeds harden, the cone reopens and the
seeds are released
8) Seed will land
ground
9) Seedling grows into (sporophyte)…the cycle repeats

SPOROPHYTE
Angiosperm Life Cycle
Flowers contain reproductive organs protected by
specialized leaves
• Sepals and petals are modified leaves.
• Sepals are outermost layer that protects
developing flower
• Petals can help to attract animal pollinators
•
A stamen is the male structure of the flower
• anther produces pollen grains
carpel
• filament supports the anther
stamen
filament
anther
stigma
style
ovary
•
The innermost layer of a flower is the female carpel.
• stigma is sticky tip
• style is tube leading from stigma to ovary
petal
• ovary produces female gametophyte
sepal
Flowering plants can be pollinated by
wind or animals
• Wind pollinated flowers have small flowers and large
amounts of pollen.
• Animal pollinated flowers have larger flowers and less pollen.
many flowering plants pollinated by animal pollinators
– pollination occurs as animal feeds from flower to flower
– animal pollination more efficient than wind pollination
Fertilization takes place within the flower
Male gametophytes, or pollen grains, are produced in the
anthers.
– male spores produced in
anthers by meiosis
– each spore divides by
mitosis to form two
haploid cells
– two cells form a
Pollen grain
single pollen grain
Stamen
Anther
Filament
One female gametophyte can form in each ovule
of a flower’s ovary
•
Many cells can be made in the ovule
• One cell becomes the egg
• One cell becomes 2 polar nuclei
• The rest die
Polar nuclei (2n)
1. Pollen stick to animal or released into wind.
2. Animal finds a new flower to feed on and
pollen grains land on the stigma (pollination)
3. Pollen tube grows and 2 nuclei transfer into the ovule
..
Let’s zoom in…
3. Flowering plants go through the process of double
fertilization.

ovule
1 sperm fuse with the polar nuclei = triploid (3n) endosperm
1 sperm fuse with the egg = zygote
4. Each ovule becomes a seed.

seed coat
Endosperm provides food
supply for embryo
The surrounding ovary grows into a fruit.

5. Seeds get dispersed
6. Seed germinates, and the cycle starts over
ground
