Summary Introduction
To analyse:
The type of reproduction, in which the new plant can grow from a piece of stem.
Introduction:
The reproduction can be defined as the process of producing identical offspring. The reproduction can be either sexual or asexual. The sexual mode of reproduction involves two individuals (male and female) and asexual reproduction involves a single individual.

Cells in the stem of a seedling that is grown in the dark orient their microtubules horizontally. How would you expect this to affect the growth of the plant?
This figure summarises the life cycle of a seed plant. The blue circles named A and B represent the sexually mature individual of each phase of the life cycle.
1) What is this life cycle called?
2) Plant B is in the diploid phase. What is another name for this plant?
3) If A is the haploid phase, in which phase would you find sepals? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase
4) If B is the haploid phase, in which phase would you find synergids? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase
5) If B is the diploid phase, in which phase would you find the nucellus? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase
6) If A is the diploid phase, in which phase would you find the sperm cells? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding to the correct phase
7) If A is the diploid phase, in which phase would you find selection on flower colour? Write just the letter of the individual corresponding…

- What is germplasm? Why is it necessary to have gemplasm collection?arrow_forwardWe used seedlings of Lepidium sativum to see under which conditions it would germinate in an experiment. We'd use cotton wool and dampen it, and placing the seedlings at the bottom. Depending on which bottle it was, some were mixed with dampened cotton wool, and others didn't have cotton wool that were dampened. Then the opening of the bottle was covered, except for one which was covered with a lid. (See the picture). Now, I have to explain my results in my lab report. I can't find a solid source on what factors that cause the germination of seedlings. I've covered cellular respiration, and photosynthesis, but I don't know how to proceed from here. Bear also in mind that there's no soil in which the seed is germinating, so I will have to be able to explain this. Second of all, could you clue me in on how moisture is important for the germination of seedlings? Should I also bring up the physiology of seedlings and how they're growing?arrow_forwardAdvantages of retaining the young sporophyte as an embryo within the parent plant include the following choices:A) The embryo is protected from desiccation.B) The embryo is able to quickly replicate, producing multiple copies that can be widely dispersed.C) The embryo is able to attain nutrients supplied by maternal tissues.D) The embryo is protected from pathogens.E) The embryo is protected from ultraviolet light.arrow_forward
