1. Seedless Vascular Plants Ch. 17
2. Objectives: Define & Comprehend Evolution of Pteridophytes
Lycopodiophyta & Pteridophyta:
Habitat
Characteristics
Reproductive cycle
Examples of
Relationship to Bryophyta & vascular plants
3. Differences b/t seedless vascular plants & bryophytes Sporophytes are larger than gametophytes and are free-living
Lignin production*
True vascular system (Tracheophytes)
Roots present
Megaphylls*
4. Homosporous vs. heterosporous Majority of pteridophytes are homosporous
Produce only 1 kind of spore during meiosis
A few ferns and all seed plants are heterosporous
Produce micro/megaspores
5. Phylum Lycopodiophyta
