Kingdom Plantae Plant Morphology Plant Evolution Ancestor = Charophytes member of the green algae Evidence that supports this idea: 1. Homologous chloroplasts Similarity in characteristics d/t common ancestry 2. 3. 4. 5. Biochemical similarity Similarities in cytokinesis Sperm cell ultrastructure Genetic relationships Problems associated with movement to land 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Desiccation Gas exchange Support of multicellular structures Spore or seed dispersal Reproduction Alternation of generations Two Generations: 1. Sporophyte stage a. Diploid stage b. Sporo = spore (n) plant a. sporopollenin c. Spores produced via meiosis d. Sporangium sporocytes (2n) Alternation of generations con’t. Two Generations: 2. Gametophyte a. haploid stage b. gameto = gamete plant c. gametes produced via MITOSIS Bryophytes (nonvascular land plants) Hepatophyta Anthoceros Bryophyta Liverworts Hornworts Mosses Bryophytes Gametangia = structures where gametes are produced a. Archegonia - egg cells b. Antheridia – sperm cells * Sporophyte cannot live independently Moss plants – gametophyte & sporophyte generations The Liverworts (Hepatophyta) - Marchantia sp. The Hornworts (Anthocerophyta) Anthoceros sp. Bryophytes con’t Stomata a. openings in leaves that allow for gas exchange Bryophytes con’t Cuticle (made of cutin) Bryophytes con’t. No fundamental difference between above and below ground parts - 2 cm tall Still have a need for water Vascular Plants Dominant stage = sporophyte Specialized organs a. b. Stems Leaves - megaphyll - microphyll c. Sporophylls - d. Many cone shaped Homosporous & heterosporous Roots - rhizomes Vascular plants con’t. Branching increased sporangia Some contain lignin a. structural support Vascular tissues a. Xylem b. phloem Vascular plants con’t. 6. Two types of growth – apical meristem a. Primary growth b. Secondary growth 7. Sperm still flagellated 8. Maintained stomata & cuticle Nonseed Vascular Plants Lycophyta Psilotophyta Sphenophyta Pterophyta Lycophyta Psilotophyta Lycopodium sp. Psilotum sp. (microphylls) (stems only) Sphenophyta Equisetum sp. Pterophyta – the ferns Sori on the underside of sporophylls Vascular Seed Plants Coniferophyta - the gymnosperms Anthophyta - the angiosperms Seed plants Purpose of the seed: A. means of dispersal B. Survive unfavorable conditions C. Stores food for embryo D. Protection from predators Seed plants con’t. 1. Non-flagellated sperm a. pollen b. Moved by water, wind, insects, and animals 2. Egg cells a. Called ovules located inside the ovary Seed plants con’t. 3. Reduced gametophyte a. composed only of sperm or egg 4. Maintained vascular tissue, cuticles, and stomata Gymnosperms 1. Needle-like leaves 2. Found in moderately cold & dry regions 3. Direct pollination ovules NOT enclosed by tissue of the sporophyte Gymnosperms – naked seed plants Cycads Ginkgo biloba Gnetophyta Welwitschia Ephedra Coniferophyta Angiosperms 1. Produce seeds and flowers 2. Petals brightly colored to attract pollinators 3. Dominate the landscape The anatomy of a flower Flower anatomy con’t. Angiosperms con’t. 1. 2. 3. 4. Pollination Pollen grain lands on stigma and germinates Pollen tube grows down through style into ovary releases sperm into ovules (egg cells) Mature ovary = fruit Mature ovule = seed Pollination Monocots vs. Dicots Mono 1. 1 cotyledon 2. Parallel vein 3. Fibrous root 4. Flwr parts in 3 5. Scattered bundles (in the stem) Dicot 2 cotyledons net-like vein tap root flwr parts in 4-5 bundles in ring
