Gymnosperms are seed-producing plants with exposed ovules, lacking fruits. They have true roots, stems, and leaves, with majority being tall, woody, perennial plants. Male and female flowers are borne on separate structures, and pollination occurs via wind. Gymnosperms exhibit unique features such a

The quiz content discusses the process of seed development in flowering plants, focusing on the formation and dispersal of fruits. It touches upon the different parts of a seed, such as the seed leaf, food store, ovule, and endosperm, highlighting their roles in the growth of new plants. Additionall

In plant reproduction, the formation of female gametes involves meiosis in cells of the carpel sac, leading to the development of the embryo sac or megaspore. Meiosis results in four haploid cells, of which three degenerate, and one survives. This surviving cell undergoes multiple rounds of mitosis,

The concept of genetic linkage is explored through experiments in maize and Drosophila, showcasing how specific traits are inherited together due to their close association on chromosomes. In maize, the phenomenon of linkage is demonstrated through color and endosperm traits, while in Drosophila, co

Endosperm is the nutritive tissue formed in angiosperms through triple fusion, serving to nourish the embryo. There are three main types of endosperm: Nuclear, Cellular, and Helobial, each characterized by distinct modes of development. Nuclear endosperm features repeated division of the primary nuc

Endosperms are crucial for embryo development, providing nutrients and starch. There are two main types of seeds based on endosperm utilization: albuminous and exalbuminous. Endosperm development involves three types: nuclear, cellular, and helobial. Nuclear endosperms feature free-nuclear divisions
