General Plant Characteristics
Non-Vascular Seedless Plants bryophytes
Vascular Seedless Plants – Ferns & Relatives
Study Guide
1. Is a plant ever unicellular?
2. Losing excessive amounts of water through evaporation may affect a plant’s ability to carry out
_________________.
3. Bryophytes are low growing because they lack _________________.
4. Bryophytes include _________________, _________________, & _________________.
5. _________________ tissue transports solutions of nutrients and carbohydrates produced by
photosynthesis.
6. Does a plant have a true nucleus? What term do we use to refer to this characteristic?
7. Do all plants produce seeds? Explain.
8. Plants use the energy of sunlight to __________________________________.
9. Without gas exchange, a plant would be unable to make _________________.
10. Where do plants (how do plants) get the water they need?
11. _________________ are plant adaptations that allow them to maximize light absorption.
12. Plants require more _________________ on a sunny day.
13. Plants can lose _________________ while exchanging gases with the atmosphere.
14. Bryophytes are highly dependent on _________________ for reproduction. They are
_________________ which means they lack specialized tissues that conduct water. So they
draw up water by the process of _________________.
15. In liverworts, the structures that produce eggs and sperm look like _________________ or
_________________.
16. _________________ is a structure that has a function similar to that of plant roots.
17. In mosses long thin cells called _________________, are multicelluar and sphere shaped
structures that contain haploid cells.
18. Some mosses form clumps of _________________ growing together. This is the form we are
most familiar with.
19. _________________ are the most common bryophytes and are the most abundant plants in the
_________________ regions.
20. _________________ is the sperm producing structure of a bryophyte.
21. _________________ & _________________ are vascular conducting tissues found in ferns
but NOT in bryophytes.
22. _________________ tissue is important to ferns because it can conduct water over long
distances.
23. Club mosses _________________ _________________ plants.
24. Horsetails have _________________ & _________________ tissue and have
_________________. However they do NOT produce _________________.
25. Club mosses and ferns grow in _________________ environments.
26. The leaves of _________________ can absorb more sunlight than the leaves of
_________________ _________________.
27. Fern fronds grow from the plant’s underground steams that are called _________________.
28. What is Equisetum?
29. Fern spores are produced on the underside of their fronds in tiny containers called
_________________.
30. Sporangia are grouped in clusters called _________________.
31. Label the following structures of the fern life cycle as diploid or haploid:
Spores
Gametophyte
Egg
Sperm
Sporangium Antheridium
Sporophyte Archegonium
32. A _________________ life cycle is different from the _________________ life cycle because
the fern gametophyte always has both archegonia and antheridia.
33. The capsule of a moss produces _________________.
34. The sperm of bryophytes need _________________ to reach eggs of other individuals.
35. Water moves from cell to cell in the rhizoids of a moss by the process of _________________.
36. Why is the sporophyte phase of all plants diploid?
37. Explain the importance of vascular tissue in plants.
38. Be able to explain each part of the diagram on page 563 Figure 22-17 Life Cycle of a Fern.
39. Cladogram page 554… Evolutionary relationship among various plant groups. Be able to
answer questions about this type of cladogram.
