Answer and explanation:

a) Spore - N:  The adult diploid vegetable (2n) produces spores (n) by meiosis, which is why we call it sporophyte (spore producer).

b) Calyptra - 2N: Calyptra is an enlarged archegonian belly that protects the capsule containing the embryonic sporophyte. Calyptra are normally lost before the spores are released from the capsule.

c) Egg - N: Eggs are structures present in the ovary of plants, that implies that they are part of the gametophyte.

d) Protonema - 2N: The protonema is a cell body that gives rise to the gametophyte, in other words, the protonema is a young gametophyte, and like the gametophyte, it has 2N ploidy

e)  Arquegonium - 2N: Female sexual organ (gametangium), bottle-shaped, characteristic of bryophytes, pteridophytes and most gymnosperms, as part of the reproductive structure, its ploidy is 2N

f)  Paraphysis - N: Sterile hyphae of the fruiting body (fertile spore-bearing layer) of several ascomycete fungi. They are part of the gametophyte (surrounding the antheridia and archegonium).

g) Zygote - N:  From the fertilization of the gametes, the diploid zygote (2n) is formed, which will develop forming the adult individual. Meiosis in this cycle is known as final or gametic meiosis.

h) Capsule - 2N: It is in the capsule that the transition from the mother cell (2N) to the spore cell (N) occurs. The capsule is protected by calyptra (2N)

i) Seta - 2N: Setae are primarily part of the sporophyte, but can appear in some specific gametophyte phases (in parasitism). They support the capsule and assist in nutrient uptake.

Deciduous trees, such as maple and elm trees, regularly drop their leaves in a response to a change in the environment.
igor_vitrenko [27]
The correct answer would be C.seasonal changes in the amount of daylight. Since leaves require sunlight in order to perform photosynthesis to keep the tree alive, when seasonal changes occur where there is not enough sunlight throughout the day, trees go dormant for the season until conditions are right.

What is the suspenders ligament (ciliary zonule) were is it located?
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The zonule, often referred to as the ciliary zonule, is the circumferential suspensory ligament that connects the lens of the eye to the ciliary body. The zonule is composed of an elaborate system of fibers that spans the gap between the lens and the adjacent nonpigmented ciliary epithelium (NPCE).
