MATURE GAMETOPHYTE (HERMAPHRODITIC) Rhizoids Antheridia (male) Archegonia (female)
Colonization of Land – Adaptive Radiation • Limitations for terrestrial life • Water availability • Dispersal mechanisms • Maintaining genetic diversity • Result = great diversity of land plants
Vascular Tissue • Long tubes: transport water minerals and nutrients. • Phloem: sugars/nutrients from leaves • Xylem: wter and minerals from roots • Made of special cells called tracheid cells • Tracheophytes
Alternation of generations Haploid generation (1n) • Gametophyte • Haploid gametes fuse to form diploid zygote • Diploid generation (2n) • Sporophyte • Produce haploid spores through meiosis
Moss and Liverwort Life Cycle • Gametophyte is dominant form • Lack of vascular tissue • Low to the ground • Swimming sperm (dependent on water)
Fern Life Cycle • Sporophyte is dominant form • Vascular tissue present • Can grow taller • Swimming sperm (dependent on water)
Pine Life Cycle • Sporophyte is dominant form • Vascular tissue present • Dispersal ability • Sperm in pollen • Seeds
Angiosperm Life Cycle • Sporophyte is dominant form • Vascular tissue present • Flowers • Pollination (dispersal and genetic variability) • Double fertilization
