Cards (100)

  • Reproduction
    It is one of the characteristics of life. It is a biological process in which new individual organisms are produced, may it be sexual or asexual.
  • Sexual reproduction
    It involves the union of gametes (egg cell and sperm cell) through fertilization.
  • Asexual reproduction
    It involves the creation of cloned offspring from a parent organism.
  • Reproductive
    1. Pistil/Carpel
    2. Stamen

    Sterile
    3. Petals
    4. Sepals
    4 Main Parts of a Flower
  • 1. Anther
    2. Filament
    2 Parts of Stamen
  • Anther
    The production site of
    pollen
  • Filament
    It supports the anther
  • 1. Stigma
    2. Style
    3. Ovary
    4. Ovule
    4 Parts of the Pistil/Carpel
  • Stigma
    It is the receiving site
    of the pollen
  • Style
    It supports the stigma
  • Ovary
    It is where
    fertilization takes place
  • Ovule
    It becomes the
    seed.
  • Perfect flowers
    They have both pistil and stamen parts.
  • Monoecious
    Perfect flowers are also known as __________ (all sexes are there) flower
  • Imperfect flowers
    They either only have the pistil or the
    stamen
  • Dioecious
    Imperfect flowers are also known as ______ (sexes are separated per
    flower) flower.
  • 1. Pistillate (only have pistil)
    2. Stamenate (only have stamen)
    2 Types of Imperfect Flowers
  • Complete flowers
    They contain all the four main
    parts: sepal, petal, pistil, and stamen
  • Incomplete flowers
    They lack at least one of the
    four main parts.
  • Pollination
    It is the process of transferring pollen from
    an anther to a stigma.
  • 80% biotic
    20% abiotic

    Percentage of biotic and abiotic means of pollination
  • 98% wind
    2% water
    Percentage of the main agents of abiotic methods of pollination
  • 1. By bees
    2. By moths
    3. By flies
    4. By bats
    5. By birds
    5 Examples of Biotic Agents of Pollination
  • 1. Haplontic
    2. Haplodiplontic
    3. Diplontic
    3 Plant Life Cycles
  • Haplontic Life Cycle

    ▪ Its dominant stage is a
    multicellular haploid stage
    which produces gametes that
    eventually fuse to form
    unicellular zygotes.
    ▪ Each zygote then undergoes
    meiosis to become haploid,
    after which it undergoes
    mitosis to become the
    multicellular organism.
    ▪ Ex. Green Alga Chara
  • Haplodiplontic Life Cycle
    ▪ It has a multicellular
    haploid (gametophyte) stage
    that produces gametes.
    ▪ These gametes fuse to produce a
    zygote that undergoes mitosis to
    produce a multicellular
    sporophyte.
    ▪ Within a part of the sporophyte
    called the capsule, cells
    undergo meiosis to produce
    meiospores.
    ▪ These spores are eventually
    released and germinate by
    dividing mitotically to become a
    multicellular gametophyte
    ▪ Ex. Moss
  • Diplontic Life Cycle
    ▪ The life cycle of organisms,
    which is dominated by the
    diploid stage.
    ▪ Plants and algae show
    alternation of generation.
    ▪ All the plants showing
    sexual reproduction
    alternate between two
    multicellular stages, the
    haploid gametophyte and
    diploid sporophytes.
    ▪ Ex. Angiosperms
  • Double Fertilization
    It results from the
    discharge of two sperm from the
    pollen tube into the embryo sac.
  • 1st Sperm: Fertilizes the egg
    2nd Sperm: Combines with the polar nuclei, giving rise to the endosperm.
    What are the function of the two sperms in double fertilization?
  • Endosperm
    It is the triploid (3n) food storage of a fruit.
  • Synergids
    They guide the sperm to the egg in plants to increase fertilization.
  • Seed Coat
    It is hard and protective that encloses the embryo and its food supply
  • Hypocotyl
    The embryonic axis below the cotyledons
  • Radicle (Embryonic Root)

    It is where hypocotyl terminates
  • Epicotyl
    Located above the cotyledons
  • Plumule
    It comprises the epicotyl,
    young leaves, and shoot apical meristem
  • 1. root
    2. shoot
    3. connects root and shoot
    After germination, what do these parts become?
    1. radicle - _________
    2. epicotyl - ________
    3. hypocotyl - _________
  • 1. Epigeous
    2. Hypogeous
    2 Types of Seed Germination
  • Epigeous Germination
    Type of germination where
    - epicotyl and cotyledon rise above the ground
    - hypocotyl elongates into a stem
    - ex. Sunflower
  • Hypogeous Germination
    Type of germination where
    - seed/cotyledon remains underground
    - hypocotyl remains short
    - radicle and epicotyl elongates
    - ex. Chickpeas
