1 - Taxonomic Keys • Need to know your audience* use terms they will know • Don’t use relative terms* large, small • Use absolute terms* 10-15 cm long
Getting started • Look at what you have and notice differences* write down 3-5 features that vary • Group similar things together • Think of ways to split object into two groups(groups do not need to be of equal size) • Split remaining objects into two groups again • Start key with a diagrammatic flow chart
2 - Angiosperm Reproduction • Reproductive structure = flower- sepals- petals- stamen- carpel
Lab 3 - Fruits • General fruit names - four categories • Number ovaries/flowers (single, aggregate, multiple) • Parts other than ovary (simple, accessory) • Fleshiness (fleshy, dry) • Dehiscence (dehiscent, indehiscent)
Fruits • Each fruit then grouped by it’s four words.
Fruits • Also categorize by specific fruit name (usually 1-2 words)Examples:capsule, nut, berry, false berry, legume
Fruit components • Pericarp, seed, endosperm, embryo
Lab 4 - Algae • Morphological forms:unicellular, filamentous, colonial, thallose
Ectocarpus • Division • Growth form
Spirogyra - vegetative • Filamentous • Chloroplast • Cell wall • Pyrenoid
Spirogyra – conjugation • Gamete type • Life cycle • Dark greencircles • Connectionbetween cells
Fucus • Division • Growth form • Oval structures
Fucus reproduction • Sphericaltips?
Fucus reproduction • Male vs female?
