Review Haploid: having 1/2 the number of chromosomes. Diploid: having a full complement of chromosomes (2n). Meiosis: cell division where chromosome number is reduced from diploid to haploid. Fertilization: nuclei of two gametes fuse, raising the chromosome number from haploid to diploid.
Your life cycle: • You are diploid. • Your cells produce haploid gametes through meiosis. • Your gametes fuse with someone else’s to form a diploid zygote. • The zygote differentiates by mitosis into a multicellular, diploid individual.
Plants have two generations in their life cycle: • Gametophyte: haploid, gamete-producing phase. • Sporophyte: diploid spore-producing phase.
In plants, generations alternate: • A diploid individual produces haploid spores by meiosis. • Spores divide by mitosis, producing multicellular haploid gametophytes (e.g. Pollen grain). • Gametophytes produce gametes that fuseto form a diploid zygote. • Zygotes differentiate by mitosis into multicellular, diploid individuals. (Sporophyte) (Sporophytes)
Plants are grouped by: • morphology • +/- & arrangement of vascular tissues (xylem & phloem) • life cycle
