1 and 2. This is an example of chitin and mycelium. This picture was taken in Cold Lake, AB Canada over the summer. It is an example of chitin because it is a sugar monomer that is found in many fungal walls and it is an example of mycelium because it is found in fungus.




8 and 9. This picture represents a modified stem of a plant and a flower ovary. This picture was taken in Cold Lake, AB, Canada. The ovary would be located in the carpel of the flower, or Specifically, it is the part of the pistil (which is located at the point of connection with the base of the petals and sepals). This also shows a modified stem because it is located above ground.

10. This picture represents byrophte because it is moss. This picture was taken in my backyard.
Jess,
ReplyDeleteFor 8 and 9, can you explain how the stem is modified and where the ovary would be found on the plant? Also, what part of 10 is the moss? I see shelf fungi on the tree, but no moss.
Thanks,
Wright
Jess,
ReplyDeleteMost stems are above ground. That wouldn't be a modified version. I still don't see the moss on 10.
