Test: Pteridium - Question 2

The most important characteristic of a fern plant is  - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 2

The fern leaf, differs from the true leaf (euphyll) of the flowering plants in its vernation, or manner of expanding from the bud. In most ferns, vernation is circinate; that is, the leaf unrolls from the tip, with the appearance of a fiddlehead, rather than expanding from a folded condition. Vernation refers to the growing of a new leaf; circinate refers to the arrangement of the leaf, which is  circular.

Test: Pteridium - Question 7

The shape of fern sporangium is  - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 7

The shape of sporangium in fern is biconvex. Each sporangium has a multicellular stalk and a biconvex capsule. A sporangium is an enclosure in which spores are formed. It can be a single cell or multicellular. Sporangia can produce asexual spores by mitosis, but in nearly all land plants and many fungi, sporangia are the site of meiosis, and produce genetically unique haploid spores. In ferns, each sporangium is a capsule, that contains spores. They are usually aggregated into clusters called as sori. The position and arrangement of the sporangia are very important for the identification of ferns. Fronds that have sporangia on their underside are fertile, and those that don't are sterile.

Test: Pteridium - Question 8

Which combination of characteristics is correct for a fern sporangium -

A state in hermaphroditic systems that is characterized by the development of male organs or maturation of their products before the appearance of the corresponding female product thus inhibiting self-fertilization and that is encountered commonly in mints, legumes, and composites and among diverse groups.

Test: Pteridium - Question 11

In Pteridium, antheridium and archegonium are respectively - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 11

The gametophytes bear male and female sex organs called antheridia and archegonia, respectively. Water is required for transfer of antherozoids the male gametes released from the antheridia, to the mouth of archegonium. Fusion of male gamete with the egg present in the archegonium result in the formation of zygote.. If a flower is stalkless, i. e. sits directly in the axil or other support, it is said to be sessile.

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 13

Significant differences such as presence or absence of indusial the outgrowth covering sorus in ferns or vascular plants may represent either an ancestral absence (plesiomorphy) or a derived loss (apomorphy). hence the presence and absence of indusial is a morphological feature viewed as an ancestral trait or a derived loss. thus the accumulation in changes in the morphological features of the indusial especially is a means of differentiating it on the basis of its origin.

Test: Pteridium - Question 14

Stem of Pteridium is - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 14

The plant body of Pteridium is sporophytic and it is differentiated in root, stem and leaves. Root and stem are underground and leaves are aerial.Horizontal in Soil biologists measure how plants and microbes absorb nutrients, and incorporate them into organic matter, which is the basis for the carbon cycle. There are two main processes. Immobilization is when soil organisms take up mineral nutrients from the soil and transform them into microbial and plant tissues.

Test: Pteridium - Question 15

Dehiscence of sporangium in pteridium take place  - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 15

In Pteridium, the annulus and the stomium help in the dehiscence of the sporangium and dispersal of spores. At maturity, the sporangium dehisces by drying action, which exerts pressure on mouth assisted by shrinkage of the annulus. Lastly mouth of sporangium open and spores are liberated.

Test: Pteridium - Question 16

In Fern stem xylem is  - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 16

The roots of vascular plants are normally considered to have exarch development. Endarch is used when there is more than one strand of primary xylem in a stem or root, and the xylem develops from the inside outwards towards the periphery, i.e. centrifugally. The leaves and stems of many ferns have mesarch development.

Test: Pteridium - Question 17

Neck of the archegonium of fern is -

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 17

The archegonia have a shorter neck than those of the ferns, and the neck is straight. The reproductive organs borne by the thallus or plant Short and curved  are called antheridia and archegonia , and serve for sexual reproduction.

Test: Pteridium - Question 18

Leaf-gap in the vascular cylinder in fern is - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 18

The parenchymatous region left behind in the main stele  after the diparture of the leaf trace is called 'leaf gap'.

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 21

Ferns have 3 major parts – the rhizome, the fronds and the reproductive structures called sporangia. The characteristics of each of these 3 parts of the fern plant are used for classification and identification. The rhizome is the stem of the fern plant.

Test: Pteridium - Question 22

In Pteridium the root are - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 22

Some roots, called adventitious roots, arise from an organ other than the root—usually a stem, sometimes a leaf. They are especially numerous on underground stems, such as rhizomes, corms, and tubers, and make it possible to vegetatively propagate many plants from stem or leaf cuttings. Certain adventitious roots.

The sex organs that develop towards the rhizoids of fern prothallus are called as - 

Detailed Solution for Test: Pteridium - Question 28

 

The prothallus is haploid, since it grew from a spore which had been formed by meiosis. It does not have any vascular tissue and uses small rhizoids to anchor it to the ground. On the underside of the prothallus the sex organs form. The female structure, called an archegonium, contains a single egg.An antheridium is a haploid structure or organ producing and containing male gametes. The plural form is antheridia, and a structure containing one or more antheridia is called an androecium.
