3/16/12 Quiz Prep (Moss & Fern Life Cycle)

1. The meiosis of animals involves the creation of haploid cells (otherwise known as gametes -- that's your egg and sperm) which fuse during fertilization; this forms a zygote. The plants, however, have a more complex system, which is known as the ________________ life cycle.

In diagram 1, label #1a. (Hint: This is the action, meiosis, mitosis, or fertilization, that the Sporophyte goes through)

In diagram 1, is the Sporophyte (#1) haploid or diploid?

In diagram 1, label #2. (Hint: This is the structure(s) the Sporophyte creates/forms after Meiosis)

In diagram 1, are the spores (#2) haploid or diploid?

In diagram 1, label 2a. (Hint: This is the action, meiosis, mitosis, or fertilization, that the Spores go through)

In diagram 1, label #3. (Hint: This is the structure the spores create/form after Mitosis)

In diagram 1, is the Gametophyte (#3) haploid or diploid?

In diagram 1, label #3a. (Hint: This is the action, meiosis, mitosis, or fertilization,  that the Gametophyte goes through)

In diagram 1, label #4. (Hint: This is/are the structure(s) the Gametophyte creates/forms after Mitosis)

In diagram 1, are the Gametes (#4) haploid or diploid?

In diagram 1, label #4b. (Hint: This is the male gamete)

In diagram 1, label #4c. (Hint: This is the action, meiosis, mitosis, or fertilization,  that the egg and sperm through)

In diagram 1, label #5. (Hint: This is the structure the egg and sperm create/form after Fertilization)

In diagram 1, is the Zygote (#5) haploid or diploid?

In diagram 1, label #5a. (Hint: This is the action, meiosis, mitosis, or fertilization,  that the Zygote goes through)

In diagram 1, label #6. (Hint: This is the structure the Zygote creates/forms after Mitosis)

In diagram 1, is the Sporophyte (#6) haploid or diploid?
