Botany Terms: Gymnosperms and Angiosperms Reproduction, Quizzes of Biology

Definitions and examples of key terms related to the reproductive structures of gymnosperms and angiosperms. Topics include the four phyla of gymnosperms, microsporangiate strobili, microsporophylls, microsporangia, microsporocytes, microgametophytes, prothallial cells, generative cells, tube cells, megasporangiate strobili, scales, and the female gametophyte. Angiosperm classes are also introduced.
