Goals of biotechnology
Increaase crop yeild/profit
stress resistance
reduce environmentsl impact
nutritional enhancement
new properties
Bioremediation
Agrobacterium (tree growths)
mediated transformations
GM crops and the environment
evolution of reistant pests and weeds
risk to nontarget organisms
Bioremediation
remove toxins from soil
Edible vaccine
medicine in foods
angiosperms
plants that flower or fruit
gymnosperms
naked seeds
have not flower or fruit
Haploid cells=spores
Diploid Plant= Sporocyte
Haploid plant= Gametophyte
Seedless plants (Characteristics)
Early plants disperse using spores
Haploid gametophyte is photosynthetic
Angiosperm (characteristics)
recent plants disperse using seeds
Diploid spporocyte is photsynthetic
Advantage of asexual production
efficient
increase individual genetic output
Advantage of sexual reproduction
Meiosis+outcrossing
Pettles (structure)
modified leaf
WHOR
What is a flower?
specialized shoot with 4 layers of modified leaves
Structures of flower (outside to inside)
Sepal
Pettle
Stamen (anther, filament)
Carpels (stigma, style, overy)
Step 2
: female spore (mega)
Step 4
: Egg
Step 2
: Micro spores (micro)
Step 3
: Makes sperm
2&3
: Haploid cell
Pollen on land (advantages)
protect sperm
no water requires
colonize new dry places
Angiosperms primarily use_____ (pollination type)
wind
can be inneficient
Mutualism and angiosperms (advantage)
mutually benneficial
animals eat pollen and nectar
planats get precise pollination
Sexual deception (orchids)
mimic insects
*apperance
*pheremones
Flower attributes (goal)
target specific pollinators
Pollination (deffinition)
delivery of pollen from another stigma
Fertilization: deffinition
joining of spern and egg to form Diploid zygote
multiple pollen tubes can fetilize _____ ovules in a single ovary
multiple
Double fertilization
1 sperm fetalizes egg= zygote
1 sper fetlizes 2 polar nuclei= 3n endosperm
Seed: Ultimate survival structure for land. Why?
food supply (endosperm)
thick outer coat
have dispersal mechanisms
Spore Vs Seed (same)
Durability
dispersal
reproductive structure
Spore Vs Seed (different)
spore
is
unicellular
and
Haploid
Seed
is
multicellular
and
multigenerational
Edicot seed (structure)
has 2 cotyledons
cotyledons store carbs
Monocot seed (structure)
1 cotyledon
Endosperm stors carbs
fruit (deffinitions
ripened ovary
Why do seed use dispersal methods
escape deteriorating environment
aviod competition
avoid inbreeding
Radicle (ambryotic root)
first to emerge from seed
coleoptile
hook to protect emerging shoot
_____ or _____ feed heterotrophic seedling
cotyledons
endosperm
time of germination depends on_____
water uptake
