Chapter 8
Life Science
1.
Draw a
pie chart of all known species. Include:
Insects, other animals, plants, fungi and “other”.
2.
Are there more vascular or non-vascular plants? Vascular
3.
Are there more angiosperms or gymnosperms? Angiosperms
4.
Are there more monocots or dicots? Dicots
5.
Look at the samples that your teacher has
collected. Draw a quick sketch of the
plant, then check all that are true for the plant you are looking at:
a. (maple) __x__ vascular; ___ nonvascular; __x_has seeds;
___has spores; __x_ angiosperm; ___gymnosperm; ___monocot;_x__ dicot
b. (pine tree)__x__ vascular; ___ nonvascular; __x_has seeds;
___has spores; ___ angiosperm; _x__gymnosperm; ___monocot;___ dicot
c. (moss) ____ vascular; _x__ nonvascular; ___has seeds;
__x_has spores; ___ angiosperm; ___gymnosperm; ___monocot;___ dicot
6.
Which of the following are true of the
alternation of generations?
a.
___x__ this is most easily seen in ferns
b.
_____ The sporophyte generation has half the
DNA.
c.
__x___ The gametophyte generation has half the
DNA.
d.
_____ The sporophyte generation uses egg and
sperm to reproduce.
7.
Draw a picture that illustrates the gametophyte and
the sporophyte generations in either a tulip, a moss or a fern. Label the generations.
8.
Vascular plants have ___veins___ and
Non-vascular plants don’t.
9.
Sporophytes have ____the full number / 100%________ of chromosomes.
10. Gametophyte
plants have ______half the number / 50%______ of chromosomes.
11. Define:
a.
Diploid - having the full number of chromosomes
b.
Haploid- having half the number of chromosomes
12. List
3 characteristics of vascular plants: they have veins and roots, they are taller, they are sporophyte dominant, most of them use seeds to reproduce
13. Vascular
plants can be divided into two groups.
These groups are: those that use seeds and those that use spores
14. Plants
with seeds can be divided into two groups.
These groups are: gymnosperms and angiosperms
15. Angiosperms
can be divided into two groups. These
groups are: monocots and dicots
17. Draw
a plant map and include these words: See the image in post which is below
Gymnosperm and Angiosperm
Monocot and Dicot
Seeds and spores (or no seeds)
The four kingdoms
The three domains
Vascular and non-vascular
18. Place
the following plants somewhere on the plant map: rose, pine tree, moss
rose is a dicot, pine tree is a gymnosperm and moss is a nonvascular plant.
rose is a dicot, pine tree is a gymnosperm and moss is a nonvascular plant.
