I can: compare and contrast the moss and fern life cycle
Do Now: classify the following as vascular or nonvascular: A B E C D
2
Mosses, liverwarts, and hornwarts
Plants Nonvascular (no roots/stems) Mosses, liverwarts, and hornwarts (seedless) Vascular (roots/stems) Ferns Seeds Gymnosperms (make cones) Angiosperms (Flowering plants)
4
Moss life cycle 1 2 4 5 3 Protonema Grows root-like structure
Antheridium Archegonium 4 5 3 Antheridium Archegonium Antheridium Archegonium Protonema Grows root-like structure
5
Moss Life Cycle Video
6
Alternation of Generations in Mosses
Sporophyte Gametophyte Antheridium (male) Archegonium (female)
7
Moss Gametophyte Moss Archegonium makes egg cell
8
Moss Sporophyte Moss Capsule contains spores
9
Moss spores
10
Moss Protonema
11
Summary: Moss life cycle
Dominant Gametophyte (seen most often) Antheridum –male structure Archegonium –female structure Nonvascular (no true roots or stems) Capsules contain spores Spores carried by wind Protomema – root-like structure that grows from a spore
12
Fern life cycle Fiddleheads uncurl Zygote grows Sporophyte New Zygote
Fronds have Sori that make spores Zygote grows Sporophyte New Zygote forms sporangium releases spores Gametophyte Prothallus Sperm from antheridium swim towards egg cell in the archegonium Spores carried by wind and grow in soil

Fern life cycle video
14
Alternation of Generations: Ferns
young diploid sporophyte beginning to grow from the haploid gametophyte
15
Fern Gametophytes
16
Young Fern Sporophyte Fiddlehead
young sporophyte produces curled “fiddleheads” that uncurl into mature fronds
17
Fern Sporophyte
18
Fern Sporophyte Frond = diploid sporophyte (leaf)
Sorus = collection of sporangia where meiosis occurs to make spores
19
Many Sori on a Fern sporophyte
20
A Sorus Close Up Sporangium
21
Fern Sporangium Spores
22
Summary: Fern life cycle
Dominant Sporophyte (seen most often) Vascular (have roots and stems) Fronds (leaves) have sori (plural)/sorus (singular)—contain spores Spores carried by wind Heart-shaped gametophyte (Prothallus) Fiddleheads—curled stem with leaves
23
Mosses Ferns both
