Question
In the life cycle of a flowering plant, which of the following would be diploid? a) Gametophyte O b) Endosperm c) Megasporocyte d) Egg e) Microspores Save Question 2 (1 point) A typical plant life cycle differs from an animal life cycle in that a) Mitosis is part of the plant life cycle, but not the animal b) Meiosis is part of the animal life cycle, but not the plant c) Meiosis produces gametes in the animal life cycle, but not in the plant d) The animal life cycle produces two types of animals, one diploid, one haploid, but the plant life cycle produces only one type of plant O e) B and CExplanation / Answer
Answer:
1). c). Megasporocyte
Megasporocyte is a diploid cell in plants that undergoes meiosis to create four haploid megaspores.
2). c. Meiosis produces gametes in the animal life cycle, but not in the plant
3). a). Stamens and Carpels
Stamens produce male gametes and they fuse with female gametes produced in the carpel. After fertilization ovary develops into fruit.
4). c). Exocarp, mesocarp and endocarp
5). d). Stigma
Anther: The part of the stamen where pollen is produced.
Pistil: The ovule producing part of a flower.
The mature ovary is a fruit, and the mature ovule is a seed.
Stigma: The part of the pistil where pollen germinates.
6). a). Reduced or no petals and sepals
The petals and sepals attract pollinators thereby pollination is possible.
