The picture below is of a moss growing on my roof. It shows both the gametophyte and the
sporophyte phases of the life cycle.
Make a sketch and label which part of the moss is the gametophyte and which is the sporophyte.
(Alternatively, you can find a live moss with both phases and take a picture, label it and upload here.)
Label the seta, capsule and calyptra of the sporophyte.
Write an account on discovery of gibberellins phytohormone. Inclusion of scientist's
name, fungus, symptoms and functions in cell will be necessary.
(i)
Explain regulations of gibberellins, indole acetic acid and abscisic acid in plant growth
region and seed germination respectively.
(ii)
As shown many plants of the desert plant Lithops. How many leaves does each plant have? (By the way, even if you grow these in ideal conditions, they never have more than this number.)

A sporophyte A fern A gametophytearrow_forwardXerophytes have adaptations such as having a waxy leaf cuticle that will make them survive in hot and dry environments. How does this adaptation help reduce water loss? * It increases the ability of the leaf cells to absorb water. NO answer It reduces the surface area for transpiration. It is impermeable to water, thus stops evaporation. It traps moist air, which increases the humidity and reduces the diffusion of water vapor.arrow_forwardSclerophyllous foliage leaves like those in holly, barberry (as shown), and Yucca (as shown) have many unusual features. Do they live for 1 year or longer? They are more resistant to animals that might try to eat them. Why? What type of cells do they have that most leaves do not have?arrow_forward
