PLANT DIVERSITY
Plants have an alternation of generations: the diploid spore-producing plant
(sporophyte) alternates with the haploid
gamete-producing plant (gametophyte).
ANGIOSPERMS (flowering plants)
FLOWER SEED FLOWER AGAIN
*Bright colored petals/attractive scent attract
*Flower has many parts
*Sepal, petals, stamen, stigma, ovary
Sepals
• The sepals protect the flower before it opens.
sepal
Petals
• The petals attract pollinating insects with their bright colour and attractive scent.
Stamens• The stamens
are the male part of the flower.
• The plant makes pollen in the top part of the stamen, called the anther.
The Stigma
• The stigma is the top of the female part of the flower.
• The pollen from another flower collects on the stigma’s sticky surface.
stigma
The Ovary
• The ovary protects the ovules.
• Pollen travels to the ovules and fertilization takes place.
• Now the ovules will develop into seeds.
Pollination
• Insects visit flowers to search
for nectar – their food.
• But the flowers use the insects for their own purposes!
• As the insect probes for nectar, its body rubs against the stamens.
• Pollen gets stuck on the insect’s legs.
• You can often see bees with a heavy load of yellow pollen on their hind legs.
Pollination
When the insect visits another flower of the same type, the pollen will stick to the stigma.
This is called
pollination.
Fertilization
The pollen travels to the ovary, where it joins with an ovule.
This is called
fertilization.
Seeds
• The seeds develop inside the ovary, which grows to become the seed pod or fruit.
Seed Dispersal
• The seeds are dispersed; some by animals, some by the wind, some by explosion and some by water.
Angiosperms have 2 divisions
Angiosperm Life Cycle
The sporophyte is the dominant generation, but multicellular male and female gametophytes are produced within the flowers of the sporophyte. Cells of the microsporangium within the anther undergo meiosis to produce microspores. Subsequent mitotic divisions are limited, but the end result is a multicellular pollen grain. The megasporangium is protected by two layers of integuments and the ovary wall. Within the megasporangium, meiosis yields four megaspores—three small and one large. Only the large megaspore survives to produce the embryo sac. Fertilization occurs when the pollen germinates and the pollen tube grows toward the embryo sac. The sporophyte generation may be maintained in a dormant state, protected by the seed coat
Gymnosperms• Gymnosperms include
gnetophytes, cycads, ginkgoes, and conifers
• Cone bearing plants
Bryophytes
• Bryophytes have life cycles that depend on water for reproduction. Lacking vascular tissue, these plants can draw up water by osmosis only a few centimeters above the ground
• they are low-growing plants that can be found in moist, shaded areas.
• mosses, liverworts, and hornworts
Bryophyte Life Cycle
Seedless Vascular Plants
• Ferns & Horsetails
• Like other vascular plants, ferns and their relatives have true roots, leaves, and stems. Roots are underground organs that absorb water and minerals

1. The sun causes water to evaporate at leaves
2. Negative pressure
3. Water molecules cling to one another (cohesion) and to sides of vessels (adhesion)
4. Negative pressure potential
5. Cohesion refers to water molecules clinging together and tension refers to negative pressure potential. Water flows upward along the length of the plant
Plant Adaptations to Life On Land
• Drying out: waterproof surfaces• Gas exchange: stomata (above
ground)/swim bladder• Support: vacuole/cell walls• Conduction: xylem and phloem/conducting
cells• Reproduction: moist surfaces/specialized
delivery systems (pollen tubes)
