General Biology General Biology Chemistry 2 1/2 Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Plant Reproduction and Development General Biology Chemistry 2 1/2 Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Learning Competency At the end of the lesson, you should be able to do the following: Compare and contrast reproduction and developmental processes in plants and animals (STEM_BIO11/12 -IVa-h-1). 3 Learning Objectives At the end of the lesson, you should be able to do the following: ● Describe the life cycle of plants. ● Discuss the processes involved in plant reproduction. ● Describe the stages of plant development. 4 Review of Plant Characteristics Multicellular organisms Cellulosic cell wall Photosynthetic capacity Life cycle with alternation of generations Plastids in cytoplasm 5 Review of Major Plant Groups Hornworts Non-Vascular Plants Land Plants lignified vascular tissues absent Vascular Plants lignified vascular tissues present Liverworts Mosses Pteridophytes } spore-bearing nonvascular plants spore-bearing vascular plants Gymnosperms Spermatophytes seed-bearing vascular plants cone-bearing plants Angiosperms flowering plants6 Review of Major Plant Groups Bryophytes (Spore-bearing non-vascular plants) Hornworts Liverworts Mosses 7 Review of Major Plant Groups Pteridophytes (Spore-bearing vascular plants) Ferns Horsetails Lycophytes 8 Review of Major Plant Groups Spermatophytes (Seed-bearing vascular plants) Gymnosperms Angiosperms (Monocot) Angiosperms (Dicot) 9 Floral Anatomy 10 Floral Anatomy The pistil consists of the female structures in flowers (i.e., stigma, style, ovary) 11 Floral Anatomy 12 Floral Anatomy The stigma is a structure where the pollen grains must land during pollination. 13 Floral Anatomy 14 Floral Anatomy Style is the stalk of the stigma that leads to the ovary. Within it is the pollen tube. 15 Floral Anatomy 16 Floral Anatomy Ovary is the female structure in flowers that house the female gametes. 17 Floral Anatomy 18 Floral Anatomy Ovules are small structures within the ovary. Each of them contains an egg nucleus. 19 Floral Anatomy 20 Floral Anatomy Stamen refers to the male portion of the flower. It consists of anthers and filaments. 21 Floral Anatomy 22 Floral Anatomy Anther is the male structure that produces and stores the pollen grains. 23 Floral Anatomy 24 Floral Anatomy Filament is the staminal structure that serves as the stalk of the anther. 25 Floral Anatomy 26 Floral Anatomy Petals are the colorful leaf-life structures in flowers that primarily attract pollinators. 27 Floral Anatomy 28 Floral Anatomy Sepals are green leaflike structures that protect the structures in a flower bud. 29 Floral Anatomy 30 Floral Anatomy Receptacle is the thickened portion below the ovary where floral structures grow. 31 Floral Anatomy 32 Floral Anatomy Pedicel is the stalk of the flower which provides support to all floral parts. 33
