- Compare and contrast the alternation of generations in pines and angiosperms. This must be very detailed and include all major structures and process involves. Be sure to include when the plants are haploid or diploid. You can use a list as long as order is clear. Be sure to clearly write out structure and processes and indicate which things are the same and which are different.arrow_forwardPlease type a brief definition of the following terms Photoperiod - Long day vs. Short day vs. Day-neutral plants - Merosity - Quartet model - Orthologs - Microsporangium - Staminode - Self-incompatibility (SI) - Aggregate vs. multiple fruits - Homology vs. Homoplasy -arrow_forwardxplain why Darwin called the origin of angiosperms an “abominablemystery,” and describe what has been learned from fossil evidenceand phylogenetic analyses.arrow_forward
