Document Summary

Simple fruits (berry, pome, and drupe):derived from a single ovary that may consists of a single carpel or a number of fused carpels a. Drupes: simple fruits with one seed surrounded by a hard outer covering(olives, cherries, peaches, plums, and coconuts) Berries: composed of an ovary with many seeds and the eshy fruit is from the ovary. Pomes: develop in part from the surrounding ower and stem tissues (apples and pears) b. c. Aggregate fruit: derived from a gynoecium consisting of a number of infused carpels (strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries) Multiple fruit: one derived from the fused ovaries and receptacles of many. Dry fruit: typically made of one ovary with no eshy material around the seed. Legume: a fruit with one cavity that splits along both sides of the ovary (beans) Capsule: a fruit with an ovary consisting of several cavities containing seeds (lilies and irises) b. Fruits that do not split when mature: a. b.

The ovule dries and forms the seedcoat.

The seed stores all of thenutrition and water the embryo needs to germinate.

Seeds can resist conditions thatwould kill a live plant.

Seeds are key to wide dispersal of offspring.

11. Select the true statements concerning sperm and pollen. Canbe more than one.

In seed plants the entire malegametophyte is dispersed.

The pollen fertilizes the egg.

The pollen tube facilitates thepollination of the ovule.

Pollen transports the cells thatform the sperm but only the sperm fertilizes the egg.

Unlike mosses and ferns water is not needed for fertilization inseed plants.

12.Check which of the following are correct regarding thebenefit of seeds. Can be more than one.

Seeds protect the young embryo byenclosing it in several layers of gametophyte tissue.

Seeds provide a source ofnourishment to the embryonic plant.

The integument forms a seed coatthat protects against desiccation.

Seeds provide a structure in whicha dormant embryo can avoid unfavorable growing conditions andgerminate when conditions improve.
