Do pollen grains develop spores?
No, pollen grains are not spores. Pollen grains are male gametophytes produced by seed plants that are involved in the reproductive process, while spores are typically asexual reproductive structures produced by some plants, fungi, and algae.
Do spores turn into sporophytes?
Yes, spores are haploid reproductive cells produced by sporophytes. Spores germinate into gametophytes, which produce gametes that fuse to form a new sporophyte.
Where is the male gamete produced in a plant?
The male gamete in a plant is produced in the anther of the flower, which is the male reproductive organ. The anther contains pollen grains, which are the male gametes that ultimately fertilize the female egg cells in the ovule of the plant.
How do mosses reproduce?
Mosses reproduce through spores that are produced in capsules on the sporophyte. These spores are released into the environment and can germinate into a new moss gametophyte under suitable conditions. The gametophyte then produces male and female gametes, which combine to form a new sporophyte.
Do pine tree produce seeds?
Yes, all pine trees reproduce through seeds. Pine tree seeds are produced in the female pine cone, which is much, much larger and far more robust than the small, catkin-like male cone, which only produces pollen.
Can a male cone produce seeds?
No, male cone can only produce microspores (Pollen grains).
What does the function of a pine cone on a evergreen tree make?
I think you're a little confused. Pine cones come from pine trees. Evergreens are any plant that doesn't lose its leaves ever year. Not all evergreens are needle leaf trees. Not all needle leaf plants are evergreen. Not all evergreens have cones. And not all plants with cones are pines. But... to answer your question... A cone on a plant (be it a pine, spruce, fir, yew, cedar, redcedar, redwood, larch, or hemlock) is a reproductive organ. Most conifers have separate male and female cones. The male cone has spores that contain sperm. The spores are dispersed by air and land on the female cone (usually of another plant.) After the female cone is fertilized, seeds form.
What do you mean by gamatophyte?
Gametophyte is produced during mitosis of spores. It is a major part to the male and female reproduction. Gametes are often called eggs or sperm cells.
How do Pteridophyte reproduce?
Pteridophytes reproduce through spores, which are produced in structures called sporangia. The spores are released into the environment and eventually germinate to form a small, heart-shaped structure called a gametophyte. The gametophyte produces both male and female gametes, which combine to form a fertilized egg that grows into a new sporophyte plant.
Which cone is the egg fertilized the male or female?
The female cone
What is the difference between megasporangia and microsporangia?
feature mega micro size large small produce megaspore, microspores female gametophyte male gametophyte no.pf spores 4 megaspores numerous microspores
What is the name of the kauri tree male cone?
The male cone of the kauri tree is called a pollen cone. It produces pollen that is dispersed by the wind to fertilize the female cones.
