Which generation is dominant in ferns: the sporophyte or the gametophyte?
In ferns, the dominant generation is the sporophyte.
Does gametophyte generation depends on sporophyte generation in ferns?
Yes, in ferns, the sporophyte generation is dominant and produces spores that give rise to the gametophyte generation. The gametophyte generation is a smaller, independent stage that produces gametes (sperm and egg) which fuse during fertilization to form the sporophyte generation.
How does a moss sporophyte acquire nutrients in its environment?
A moss sporophyte acquires nutrients through its connection to the gametophyte, which provides it with water and nutrients through a structure called the seta. This allows the sporophyte to grow and develop in its environment.
Do the spores belong to the gametophyte or the sporophyte generation?
Spores belong to the sporophyte generation in the plant life cycle. They are reproductive structures that develop from sporangia on the sporophyte and give rise to the gametophyte generation through germination.
What is the dominant generation of Bryophytes?
In vascular plants, the principal generation phase is the sporophyte, which is usually diploid with two sets of chromosomes per cell. By contrast, the principal generation phase in non-vascular plants is usually the gametophyte, which is haploid with one set of chromosomes per cell.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_plants
What is a example of sporophyte?
Three examples of a sporophyte are Polypodium, mosses, and a pine tree.
A pine tree is called a sporophyte because it?
Produces Spores
Are pine seeds covered by a tissue donated by the original sporophyte?
no
Is the female pine cone a sporophyte?
A pine tree is generally a Sporophyte - a multicellular, diploid, spore-producing organism. However, the created spores are haploid, and thus begin the gametophyte phase, in which the microspores (pollen) and megaspores (female receptors), will combine back into a gamete, and begin the sporophyte stage again. So, the pine tree is mostly sporophyte, but has very small gametophyte parts that create gametes. They're very small, but they're there.
Which generation in the life cycle of a conifer represented by a pine tree?
gametophyte as well as sporophyte generation
What is the male gametophyte of a pine tree?
A pine tree is generally a Sporophyte - a multicellular, diploid, spore-producing organism. However, the created spores are haploid, and thus begin the gametophyte phase, in which the microspores (pollen) and megaspores (female receptors), will combine back into a gamete, and begin the sporophyte stage again.
What is the main plant in gymnosperms?
When you see a pine tree, or a spruce, or a cone-bearing shrub, the "main plant" is a sporophyte
What is the main plant gymnosperms?
When you see a pine tree, or a spruce, or a cone-bearing shrub, the "main plant" is a sporophyte
What is the first cell of the sporophyte generation in the life cycle of a pine tree?
the first cell in sporophytic generation is the zygote
What does a pine seed contain?
Pine nuts contain, depending on species, between 10-34% protein, with Stone Pine having the highest content. They are also a source of dietary fiber. The nutrition is storembryo (sporophyte) in the center.
Gametophyte and sporophyte?
Gametophyte-haploid Sporophyte-diploid
What generation is dominant in both gymnosperms and angiosperms?
The dominant generation in gymnosperms is the sporophyte generation, while in angiosperms it is also the sporophyte generation. The sporophyte generation produces the structures that we commonly recognize as trees, shrubs, and flowers in plants.
