t 2 V Examine the lower (ventral) surface and note the many rhizoids. A rhizoid is a tubular structure of one or more cells that anchors the thallus to the substrate. You should also find multicellular scales on the lower surface. 6. Why are these rhizoids not considered true roots? The gametophytes of Marchantia are unisexual, with the gametangia being borne on specialized, erect branches of the male and female plants. The antheridia occur on disk- headed branches, the antheridiophores, and the archegonia occur on spoke-headed branches, the archegoniophores. Examine the prepared slides of Marchantia antheridial disks with elongated antheridia. Note the pores in the upper epidermis of the disks and find the antheridia. Each antheridium consists of a short stalk and a body of spermatogenous (sperm forming) tissue surrounded by a sterile jacket layer that is one cell thick (see text Figure 16-6a page 370). 7. Label the antheridia in Figure 2 below.
