Algae also Chapter 29 Plant Diversity • What are the characteristics of plants? • Photosynthetic autotrophs • Cellulose in cell walls • Starch as storage polysaccharide • PROBLEM – light, CO2 & air are above ground • - water & minerals are below ground • SOLUTION – evolution of specialized structures • What adaptations do plants have for survival on land? • Stomata – pores used for gas exchange • Roots – absorb water & minerals from underground • Apical meristems – tips of shoots & roots where growth occurs • Cuticle – waxy covering to prevent water loss thru leaves • Jacketed gametangia – gamete producing organ with protective jacket of cells to prevent dehydration • Sporopollenin – polymer that formed around exposed zygotes & forms walls of plant spores preventing dehydration • Lignin – structural polymer that provides strength for woody tissues of vascular plants

30 nm Chapter 29 Plant Diversity • What are the characteristics of plants? • What adaptations do plants have for survival on land? • Describe alternation of generations • What is the evidence that plants evolved from charophytes (green algae)? • rose-shaped complexes for making cellulose • Proteins in the plasma membrane that make cellulose microfibrils • Linear arrays found in non-charophytes • Similar %age of cellulose found in plants & charophytes
Chapter 29 Plant Diversity • What are the characteristics of plants? • What adaptations do plants have for survival on land? • Describe alternation of generations • What is the evidence that plants evolved from charophytes (green algae)? Similarities?? • rose-shaped complexes for making cellulose • Proteins in the plasma membrane that make cellulose microfibrils • Linear arrays found in non-charophytes • Similar %age of cellulose found in plants & charophytes • Peroxisome enzymes • Sperm structure – flagella • Formation of phragmoplast • Phragmoplast – an alignment of cytoskeletal elements & Golgi-derived vesicles at a dividing cell’s midline • Used in making cell plates during cell division • Genetic evidence • “Deep Green” Project • Nuclear & chloroplast genes have similar DNA
Chapter 29 Plant Diversity • What are the characteristics of plants? • What adaptations do plants have for survival on land? • Describe alternation of generations • What is the evidence that plants evolved from charophytes (green algae)? • How did plants evolve from green algae? • Natural selection • Algae best suited genetically for a drier climate (low water in a lake) could reproduce & pass along those genes to create a new population of better adapted “algae” • What were the highlights/adaptations of plant evolution? • Movement to land led to Bryophytes (mosses & worts) • Tougher spores (sporopollenin) • Jacketed gametangia • Vascular tissue (ferns) • Cells joined to transport water & nutrients • Lacked seeds • Development of seeds (Gymnosperms) • More protection of embryo • Embryo w/ food • Development of flowers (Angiosperms) • Complex reproductive structure
