Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line

back 1

ferns and other seedless vascular plants

front 2

how far back to the fossils of forerunners of vascular plants date?

back 2

425 million years

front 3

what are the derived traits of living vascular plants

back 3

dominant sporophytes, roots leaves and sporophyls

front 4

List the two groups of seedless vascular plants

back 4

lycophytes

monilophytes

front 5

list plants included in phylum lycophyta

back 5

club mosses, spike mosses, quillworths

front 6

list plants in phylum monilophyte

back 6

ferns, horsetails, whisk ferns and relatives

front 7

do bryophytes form a clade?

back 7

no

front 8

what were the ancient lineages of lycophytes like compared to today

back 8

small herbaceous plants and large teas

today only small herbaceous plants

front 9

when did the seedless vascular plants form the earliest forest

what did these early forests contribute to

back 9

carboniferous period 385 million years ago

global cooling, and eventually these forests turned to coal

front 10

what does xylem and phoelm do ?

back 10

xylem includeds tracheids (tube shaped cells ) that carry water and minerals up the roots

pholoem has cells arranged in tubes that distrubute sugars amino acids and other organic products

front 11

What is the life cycle of the fern

back 11

meiosis- ( n) (spore dispersal- spore-young gametophyte -mature gametophyte w/ antheridium and archegonium)

fertilization (2n) ( sperm enters egg, zygote - new sporophyte- mature sporophyte - sporangium )

front 12

name one milestone in evolution of plants

back 12

emergence of sporophylls modified leaves that bear sporangia

structure varies in different plants

ferns-clusters of sporangia called sori

in many lycophytes and gymnosperms-cone like stuctures called strobilli

front 13

Most seedless vascular plants are ...

back 13

homosporous , a 1 type of sporoganium which produces one type of spore which typically develops into a bisexual gametophyte

front 14

Heterosporous

back 14

2 types of spores from megasporangium- megaspores-female gametophyte

+microsporangium-microspores-male gametophyte

d)a parent and a child.

e)two cousins.

Stomata are found in every group of land plants except the liverworts. If stomata evolved only once among the bryophytes, this is evidence that

a)liverworts resemble the earliest-evolving plants.

b)liverworts don’t need to exchange gases with the atmosphere.

c)liverworts have lost the ability to make stomata.

d)liverworts are able to fix nitrogen.

e)gametophytes are more important in liverworts.
