Consider the following fruits: an acorn, a cherry, a burr, and a dandelion seed. Based on the structure of each of these fruits, predict how the seed is dispersed. Design a study that would estimate the average distance that each type of seed is dispersed from the parent plant.

Animation 14.1 Seed germination

No. An ovule contains the female gametophyte and develops into the seed, not into the pea pod. The carpel forms the entire fruit, which is the pea pod.

No. The ovary does develop into the pea pod. However, a pollen grain, which carries the male gamete, does not develop into the pea.

No. The anther houses sporangia that give rise to the male gametophyte. However, the pea does develop from the ovule and the tissues that it surrounds.

No. Endosperm is a food source found within a seed. The ovary develops into the pea pod, not into the pea.

Think about which one the fruit is and which one the seed is.

A pea pod is formed from __________. A pea inside the pod is formed from __________.

Types of Fruits of Plants | Morphology of Flowering Plants | Don't Memorise

What part of a plant are you eating when you consume each of the following: celery stalk, peanut, strawberry, lettuce, beet?

When does the apical–basal axis first become apparent?
a. when the epidermal, ground, and vascular tissues form
b. when the cotyledons, hypocotyl, and root form
c. when the first cell division produces the apical cell and basal cell
d. during the globular stage, when the suspensor is complete

Seed Germination  | How Does A Seed Become A Plant

No. The pollen grain carries the male gamete. The ovule houses the female gametophyte and develops into the seed.

No. The ovary develops into a fruit, and the ovule houses the female gametophyte and develops into the seed.

No. Fertilization of the egg gives rise to an embryo. The female gametophyte, which produces the egg, is housed within the ovule.

No. Fertilization of the egg gives rise to an embryo. However, the ovary does develop into a fruit.

The seed is inside the fruit.

After fertilization, the __________ develops into a seed, and the __________ develops into a fruit.

Seed Plants: Angiosperms

Why is the emergence of the radicle an important first step in germination?
a. Its hook helps protect the shoot that emerges later.
b. It carries out photosynthesis to supply the embryo with food.
c. It is important for establishing a supply of water to the growing embryo.=
d. It is necessary to break the seed coat.

A fruit in which other floral parts in addition to ovaries contribute to what we call the fruit

No. Apples are an example of this type of fruit, called an accessory fruit.

A fruit that develops from a group of flowers tightly clustered together

No. Pineapples are an example of this type of fruit, called a multiple fruit.

A fruit derived from a single carpel or several fused carpels

No. A peach is an example of this type of fruit, called a simple fruit.

A fruit that ripens about the same time that its seeds complete their development

No. This is a characteristic typical of most fruits.

A fruit that results from a single flower that has more than one carpel, each forming a small fruit

Consider that an aggregate is a collection of items.

What is the correct definition of an aggregate fruit?

In what sense are the tissues produced in the shoot and root apical meristems of a 300-year-old oak tree 'embryonic'?

No. Fruits are produced after pollination has occurred.

Storage of food for the plant to consume through the winter

No. Most fruits detach from the plant when ripe; therefore, they cannot be food storage organs for the plant.

Deterrent to herbivores, stopping them from eating leaves

No. There is a considerable amount of energy stored in fruit; there are energetically less expensive ways of deterring herbivores.

Think about the structures of different types of fruits.

Which of the following best describes the function of fruits?

Embryogenesis

No. The coleoptile is a protective sheath surrounding the young shoot in grass seeds.

No. This is the embryonic root and the area where the hypocotyl terminates.

No. This is a specialized cotyledon found in members of the grass family.

No. This is the area of the embryonic axis below the site of cotyledons attachment.

Consider that "epi-" means "above."

Which portion of an embryonic plant consists of the shoot tip with a pair of miniature leaves?

A fruit is
a. a mature ovary.
b. a mature ovule.
c. a seed plus its integuments.
d. an enlarged embryo sac.

Predict how a mutation that caused continuous production of active p53 would affect the cell.

One hypothesis for differences between humans and chimpanzees involves differences in gene regulation. A study using RNA-seq showed that the overall patterns of gene expression were similar in the liver and blood of the two species, but the expression patterns were strikingly different in the brain. How do these results relate to the hypothesis?

Seeds and Germination Explained

No. The suspensor is the result of subsequent divisions of the basal cell. Endosperm development precedes embryo development.

No. A basal cell is one result of this first division, but the suspensor is the result of subsequent divisions of the basal cell.

No. A terminal cell is one result of this first division, but a proembryo is the result of subsequent divisions of the terminal cell.

No. Endosperm development precedes embryo development. A proembryo is the result of subsequent divisions of the terminal cell.

Review the early development of plant embryos.

What are the results of the first mitotic division in a plant zygote?

Which of the following does not occur during embryogenesis?
a. formation of the radial axis
b. production of the suspensor
c. formation of the cotyledons and hypocotyl
d. formation of the leaf lateral and proximal–distal axes

Plant reproduction - Germination - GCSE Biology (9-1)

While walking in the woods, you encounter an unfamiliar nonwoody flowering plant. If you want to know whether it is a monocot or eudicot, it would not help to look at the 
a. number of seed leaves, or cotyledons, present in its seeds. 
b. shape of its root system. 
c. arrangement of vascular bundles in its stem. 
d. size of the plant.

Repeated selection of seedlings with desirable qualities

No. Selection would be for a single phenotype&#mdash;a single variety.

No. However, inducing mutations is a tool that a breeder could use to increase variability upon which selections can be made.

No. Cross-pollination could produce hybrids with combinations of parental genes and traits but not multiple varieties on the same plant.

No. Grafting can be used to combine any number of different compatible scions onto a compatible root stock.

Grafting scions of different varieties onto the same root stock

Is sexual or asexual reproduction involved?

A botanist had an apple tree in his yard that produced eight different varieties of apple. How was this tree most likely produced?

The black dots that cover strawberries are actually fruits formed from the separate carpels of a single flower. The fleshy and tasty portion of a strawberry derives from the receptacle of a flower with many separate carpels. Therefore, a strawberry is
a. a simple fruit with many seeds.
b. both a multiple fruit and an accessory fruit.
c. both a simple fruit and an aggregate fruit.
d. both an aggregate fruit and an accessory fruit.

No. However, plants need water for many life processes.

Water activates the chlorophyll molecules so that photosynthesis can begin.

No. Photosynthesis cannot begin until after germination.

Water dissolves the minerals in the soil so that they become available to the seed.

No. A seed cannot do much with minerals in the soil before germination.

Because water has a neutral pH, it balances the soil pH and makes it favorable for seed germination.

No. Soil and rainwater are not exactly neutral. Furthermore, a neutral solution does not necessarily function as a buffer.

Imbibition of water causes the seed coat to swell and allows the cells of the embryo to rehydrate.

Think about the relative size of hydrated and dehydrated plant material.

Why do seeds need water to germinate?
