Specific location of an allele of a chromosome

group of cells with a common function, structure or both

consist of several types of tissues working together

Process by which an organism replicates itself, making a copy, a likeness, and thereby providing for the continued existence of a species.

The sum of all interrelated chemical process occurring in a living organism.

The genetic information responsible for contributing to a phenotype

change in the heritable traits in a species over time

a plant capable of fertilizing it self

A plant that cannot self fertilize

unti of heredity that id transferred from a percent to offspring andishelf to determine some characteristic of the offspring

The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.

cells with well define nucleus

cells with out a well define nucleus

A particular gene that has identical alleles on both homologous chromosomes. It is referred to by two capital letters.

Refers to a pair of genes where one is dominant and one is recessive.

A branch of biology dealing with the study of the form and structure.

A water-impervious protective layer covering the epidermal cells of leaves.

Produces two types of spores. Like in seed plants

Produces one type of spore

Layer of sporophyte tissue that contributes to the structure of an ovule of a seed plant

A structure that develops within the ovary of a seed plant and contains the female gametophyte

A fine powdery substance, typically yellow, consisting of microscopic grains discharged from the male part of a flower or from a male cone. Each grain contains a male gamete that can fertilize the female ovule, to which pollen is transported by the wind, insects, or other animals

The transfer of pollen to the part of a seed plant containing the ovules, a process required for fertilization
