Seed
Plants
Classification - Seeds
Seedless Plants
 Mosses & ferns (ferns are
vascular plants) make
spores, not seeds
 Embryo from sexual
reproduction develops
within archegonium in
parent plant
 Embryo does not need to
await favorable conditions
to develop
Seed Plants
 Embryo from sexual
reproduction develops in
seed
 Seeds dispersed, await
favorable conditions to
germinate
 Seeds formed in cone
(gymnosperm) or fruit
(angiosperm)
Classification - Flowers
Flowering Plants:
Angiosperms/Anthophyta
 Seeds enclosed in a fruit
 Flowers make gametes (eggs
& sperm)
 Fertilized flower  fruit
Naked Seed Plants:
Gymnosperms/Coniferophyta
 Seeds in cone
 No flowers
 Male & female cones make
gametes (egg & sperm)
 Conifers: pines, firs, spruces,
cypresses, redwoods

Double fertilization:
2 sperm cell + egg +
polar nuclei 
Zygote (2n)
Endosperm (3n)
Seed Germination
 Germination – embryo in seed
starts to grow (usually triggered by
water absorption)
 Radicle – first shoot/part of embryo
to appear outside seed; develops
into root
 Cotyledons – seed “leaves,” not
real leaves, do not photosynthesize
 Monocot  one coteledon
grains: rice, corn, wheat, etc.
 Dicot  two coteledons
legumes: beans, peas, etc.
If April showers bring May flowers,
what do May flowers bring?
Pilgrims.
Botanists have developed a
vegetable that eliminates
the need to brush your teeth.
Bristle sprouts.
Seed Structure & Development in
Flowering Plants
Double fertilization  seeds containing embryo and endosperm
(one sperm for egg, one for endosperm)
Endosperm – contains starch/oil/protein -- energy for developing
embryo
Each ovule develops into a seed. The micropile is the
small opening where sperm came into ovule for
fertilization.
Seed Development
Hypocotyl = embryo shoot under
cotyledons  develops into first
stem
Cotyledons
(seed leaves)
eventually fall
off
Epicotyl = embryo shoot above
cotyledons  develops into first
leaves

Flowers

Sexual reproductive structures (contain gametophytes)
 Attract pollinators
 Make gametes by mitosis



Anther makes pollen containing sperm
Ovary makes ovules  eggs
Seeds/fruits develop from flower ovary
 Pollination – stigma receives pollen, pollen tube forms
 Double fertilization in ovary:
2 sperm cells + egg --> embryo & endosperm
(endosperm = food for embryo)
Flower Structure
(use to label the
diagram in your
notes)
Flower Structure
Perfect/complete Flowers
have both male &
female parts
Imperfect Flowers
have either male or
female parts
Formation of Female Gametophyte -- Terms you need to know/ID:
Ovary, ovule, female gametophyte, meiosis, egg & polar nuclei,
endosperm, double fertilization
Formation of Male Gametophyte -- Terms you need to know/ID:
Anther, male gametophyte (pollen), meiosis, sperm (2, for double
fertilization)
Fruits
Fleshy Fruits
 High moisture content
 Apples, cherries, grapes,
strawberries, tomatoes,
cucumbers, etc.
Dry Fruits
 Low moisture
 Walnuts, acorns, wheat
kernels, dandelion

Asexual Reproduction in Plants


Vegetative reproduction – occurs naturally, very fast, via
modified ground surface/underground stems that make buds:
 Stolons/runners – close to ground surface; ex.: aspen groves
(clones), water hyacinths
 Rhizomes – underground; ex.: bamboo plants
 Tubers – swollen tips of rhizomes; modified for food storage;
ex: potatoes
 Corms and bulbs – modified for food storage; ex.: tulips, onions
Artificial propagation – people do it: cutting, grafting, tissue
culture
 faster than seeds, produces genetically identical crop – plant
regenerates parts
Ex: bananas, apples, grapefruits, grapes, potatoes, pears are often
grown by artificial propagation
