Charophytes aquatic, sporopollenin protects zygote.
charophyte
Aquatic, sporopollenin protects zygote.
alternation
Difference from algae: embryo.
embryo
PEANUT EMBRYO.
sporangia
Sphagnum; spores always haploid.
bryophytes
MOSS SPOROPHYTE.

moss-cycle
Exercise
seta=sporophyte stalk. Capsule=sporangium, peristome disperses spores.
fern-cycle
Exercise
mature gametophyte (herma) repeated bottom. Seed plants dioecious, sporophyll=mod leaf.
pterophyta
Horsetail abrasive
Carboniferous
Carboniferous before Permian.

- Rhodophyta: phycoerythrin pigments
- Charophycean: layer of polymer (sporopollenin) prevents exposed zygotes from drying out
- Homosporous: one kind of spores, seed plasnts are heterosporous.
- seta plural = setae
- Peristome:
(peri, around + stoma, mouth) tooth-like segments of capsule contains sporangium inside.
- Protonema of moss: green, branched, one–cell–thick filaments (first threads), can bud with apical meristem
into gametophore. Protonema + gametophore = gametophyte.
- Athyrium filix-femina
Lady Fern sori shaped like eyebrows.
Fertile
and sterile fronds similar.
- Xylem:
tracheids and vessel elements, also parenchyma and sclerenchyma cells.
- Tracheids
bordered pits in pines; impermeable center called the Torus acts like a valve and can open or close lateral transport between Tracheids:
prevent the spread of embolisms (bubble, obstruction).
- Lignin
polymers are mostly made of phenylpropanoid units.
