In
Bryophyta, what is the relationship between the sporophyte and
gametophyte?
a. the only gametophyte phase is a gamete and the sporophyte
is free living
b. the gametophyte and sporophyte are free living and
separate
c. the gametophyte is partly or completely dependant upon the
sporophyte
d. the only sporophyte phase is a zygote and the gametophyte
is free living
e. the sporophyte is partly or completely dependent upon the
gametophyte
how
did the sporophyte and gametophyte parts of the plant life cycle
change as plants evolved from nonvascular to vascular, and non-seed
to seed?
*i think it might be talking about the alternation of
generations. need someone to explain thanks
Chapter 29
1. Describe how the sporophyte and gametophyte stages of a
plant life cycle differ.
2. Explain why most bryophytes grow close to the ground.
3. Explain why seedless vascular plants are commonly found in
damp habitats.
Chapter 30
1. Explain how climatic changes with the formation of the
supercontinent Pangaea favored the spread of gymnosperms.
2. Explain why pollen grains were an important adaptation for
successful reproduction.
Chapter 35
1. Explain this statement: “In contrast to most animals,...
Compare the life cycles of moss vs. fern, explaining in detail
alternation of generations, sporophyte, gametophyte, meiosis,
fertilization, haploid and diploid, and how the plant moves to new
locations.
7. For angiosperms, describe the relationship between
the sporophyte and gametophyte in terms of nutritional dependence
and size.
a. Is the gametophyte dependent on the sporophyte at any
time during the life cycle? If so, explain how.
b. Is the sporophyte dependent on the gametophyte at any
time during the life cycle? Explain your answer.
c. Compare the relationship between the gametophyte and
sporophyte in seedless plants and angiosperms. How does the
relationship differ?
d. Can you think of any...
Compare and contrast the origin (gametophyte generation?
sporophyte generation?) and ploidy (1n, 2n, 3n) of the stored food
in the seeds of corn, bean and pine.
