3Caii. Asexual reproduction – vegetative propagation in flowering plants

無性生殖 – 有花植物的營養繁殖
Vegetative propagation
- is any form of asexual reproduction (mitosis) occurring in plants in which a new
plant grows from a fragment of the parent plant or a specialized reproductive
structure
- many flowering plants can reproduce by vegetative propagation
營養繁殖
- 是任何一種由母株的一部分或特定繁殖結構
生長出新植物的無性繁殖 (有絲分裂)。
- 很多有花植物可以通過營養繁殖去繁殖


Example of vegetative propagation:

1. by stem tubers e.g. Potato
2. by rhizomes e.g. Ginger
3. by bulbs e.g. Onion, African Violets
4. by corms e.g. Garlic, Taro
5. by roots e.g. Lotus
6. by other method e.g. Peanut, Rice grains
營養繁殖的例子 :
1. 通過塊莖例︰馬鈴薯
2. 通過根莖例︰薑
3. 通過鱗莖例︰洋蔥、非洲紫蘿蘭
4. 通過球莖例︰大蒜、芋頭
5. 通過根部例︰蓮花
6. 通過其他方法例︰花生、米粒
(Note : all plants carry out vegetative propagation can also carry out sexual reproduction
注意︰所有進行營養繁殖的植物都可以進行有性生殖)
Food stored in the (stem tuber / rhizome / bulb / corm / …) will develop buds and
grow into a new plant, after the leaves has grown, it will carry out photosynthesis.
Excess food will be stored again in a NEW (stem tuber / rhizome / bulb / corm / …)
for future use.
儲存於 (塊莖 / 根莖 / 鱗莖 / 球莖 / …) 的食物發芽及生長為新的植物
當葉子生長後，它便會進行光合作用
剩餘的食物會再次被儲藏於新的 (塊莖 / 根莖 / 鱗莖 / 球莖 / …) 作未來之用


Advantages 好處 :
1. This method is a faster / surer way of producing daughter plants
2. The desirable characteristics of the parent can be retained in the daughter
plants
3. The offspring are adapted to their parents’ natural environment
4. It helps the plant to pass over unfavourable season (e.g. winter)
1. 這個製造子株的方法較快捷 / 較穩妥
2. 母株優良的特徵可保留在子株
3. 後代適應於其親本的自然環境
4. 幫助植物過渡困難的季節，例︰冬天
Disadvantages 壞處︰
1. offspring produced will have the same genetic make-up as their parents
this provides limited raw materials for the selection of a resistant strain
/ if parent genotype is susceptible to the pathogen attack, the whole population
will be susceptible.
2. Overcrowded and cannot colonize a new habitat
since offspring cannot be dispersed far away from parents
1. 產生的後代其遺傳構成與親代相同
這提供有限的原料供選擇抗性品系 / 若親代的基因型容易受病原體攻擊，
則整個種群都是一樣
2. 過度擁擠及不能進佔新的生境
因為後代的散播不能離親代太遠

3Cbi. Sexual reproduction in flowering plants – structure

有花植物的有性生殖 – 結構
1 – sepal : protects the flower at the bud stage

2 – anther : a. produces pollen grains carrying male gametes

compensate for wastage during pollination
3 – ovary : produces the ovule and develops into fruit after fertilization
4 – ovule : contains the female gametes
5 – style : supports the stigma in order to get the pollen
6 – stigma : receives the pollen
7 – petal : a. provides colour and scent to attract insects
b. protect inner parts of flower
8 – nectary : provide sugary secretion / nectar to attract insects
9 – filament : support the anther
3+5+6 = carpel

3– 子房 : 產生胚珠，及在受精後發育成為果實
4– 胚珠 : 包含雌性配子
5– 花柱 : 支持柱頭以接收花粉
6– 柱頭 : 接收花粉
7– 花瓣 : a. 提供顏色和香味吸引昆蟲

3Cbii. Sexual reproduction in flowering plants – process and agent of pollination

有花植物的有性生殖 – 傳粉過程及媒介
Fertilization is the fusion of male and female gametes.

受精是指雄性和雌性配子的融合
Process of pollination
After pollination, pollen grain reach the stigma of a plant of the same species
Pollen grain (develops to form a pollen tube / germinate the pollen tube)
Pollen tube carries the male gametes down the style to the ovary / and digests the
tissues of the style and releases the male gametes into the ovule.
傳粉過程
傳粉後，花粉粒到達相同品種的植物的柱頭
花粉粒 (發育形成花粉管 / 萌發出花粉管)
花粉管攜帶雄配子
沿花柱向下延伸至子房 / 並消化花柱的組織
釋放雄配子至胚珠
W : hard, dry coat 硬及乾的外殼

X : pollen grain 花粉
Y : pollen tube 花粉管
Z : male gamete 雄性配子

3Cbiii. Sexual reproduction in flowering plants – self pollination

有花植物的有性生殖 – 自花授粉
Self pollination is when pollen grain reach at the stigma of the same plant
自花授粉是當花粉粒到達同一植物的柱頭上
Self-fertilization / Self-cross is sexual reproduction,

since it involves the fusion of two gametes / fertilization
自花受精 / 自交是有性生殖，因為這項自交涉及兩性配子的融合 / 受精作用
Method of making self pollination

1. covering the flower with a plastic bag
to prevent any unwanted pollination / fertilization from other plants
2. Use a brush to dust pollen grains of flower onto the stigma of the same flower
Cover the flower with a plastic bag to prevent further pollination
製造自花授粉的方法
1. 將一膠袋包著花奔
防止任何由其他植物傳來不想有的花粉 / 受精
2. 利用小毛刷在它的柱頭上撒上同一朵花的花粉
再以膠袋把該朵花蓋封以防再度傳粉
Method of preventing self pollination

1. Stigma is located above anther / Stigma and anther locate at different position
2. Remove the anthers from the flower before they are mature
3. Use a brush to dust pollen grains of another flower onto the stigma of this
flower.
Cover the flower with a plastic bag to prevent further pollination
防止自花授粉的方法
1. 柱頭位於花藥之上 / 柱頭和花藥位於不同位置
2. 在花朵成熟前除去花藥
3. 利用小毛刷在它的柱頭上撒上別朵花的花粉
再以膠袋把該朵花蓋封以防再度傳粉

3Cbiii. Sexual reproduction in flowering plants – self pollination

3Ccvii. Reproduction in humans – birth process and parental care

人的生殖 – 分娩及親代撫育
Sequence of birth process

(1) onset of labour
(2) dilation of cervix
(2) breaking of amnion
- This results in the discharge of the amniotic fluid which lubricates the
passage of the foetus through the vagina
(3) push the baby out
- the muscular wall of uterus will contract rhythmically and powerfully
(4) cutting of umbilical cord
(5) expulsion of placenta - by the contraction of the uterus
(6) few weeks after birth, the thickened uterine lining is shed, woman discharges
bloody fluid from her uterus
分娩過程的次序
(1) 陣痛開始
(2) 子宮頸擴張
(2) 羊膜穿破 - 這引致羊水的流出，羊水潤滑陰道以便推出胎兒
(3) 推出胎兒 - 子宮的肌肉有規律和強烈地收縮
(4) 切斷臍帶
(5) 排出胎盤 - 通過子宮收縮
(6) 產後數星期，加厚了的子宮內膜脫落，血水從子宮排出
Advantages of breast-feeding

b. 母乳含有抗體，為嬰兒提供免疫力

3Ccviii. Reproduction in humans – birth control and infertility

人的生殖 – 節育及不育
Birth control / contraception 節育 / 避孕

1. Rhythm method / safe period method
Egg and sperms are viable for only a few days once they are released.
The rhythm method is to avoid sexual intercourse around the time of ovulation,
so that sperms and egg will have no chance of meeting each other.
Unreliable : since the duration of the menstrual cycle may vary and the day of
ovulation may vary from cycle to cycle as well.
安全期避孕法
卵子和精子於釋出後只能存活數天。
安全期避孕法是避免在排卵期附近進行性交，
從而令卵子沒有機會和精子遇上。
不可靠︰在不同週期內的排卵日可能不同，
每名婦人月經週期的長短可能改變
2. Use condom / diaphragm during sexual intercourse

a. It forms a physical barrier to prevent sperms from meeting the ovum
b. It helps prevent AIDS / sexually transmitted diseases / blood borne diseases
c. Diaphragm is placed at cervix to stop the sperms from entering the uterus
性交時使用避孕套 / 子宮帽
a. 它形成一道物理屏障，防止精子與卵子相遇
b. 有助預防 AIDS / 性傳染病 / 血液傳染病
c. 子宮帽放於子宮頸防止精子進入子宮
3. Contraceptive pills - inhibit ovulation

避孕丸 - 抑制排卵
4. Use Intra-uterine device (IUD) - IUD prevents the implantation of the embryo
使用子宮環 - 子宮環防止胚胎植入


Birth control / contraception 節育 / 避孕
5. Oviducts are tied or cut

a. sperm cannot meet with egg
b. sex hormones can still be produced by ovaries
and being transported by blood to the target organs to exert their effects
so no effect on secondary sexual characteristics
切斷並結紮輸卵管
a. 精子無法遇上卵子
b. 卵巢依然能夠製造性激素，經血液運送至各目標器官，
發揮其影響，所以第二性徵不會受到影響
6. Sperm ducts tied and cut

a. no sperm in the semen, but sperms still have chance to leak out of the
body
b. sex hormones can still be produced by testis
and being transported by blood to the target organs to exert their effects
so no effect on secondary sexual characteristics
輸精管結紮及切斷
a. 精液中沒有精子，但精子仍有機會會漏出體外
b. 睾丸依然能夠製造性激素，經血液運送至各目標器官，
發揮其影響，所以第二性徵不會受到影響


Reason of Infertility / sterile

1. Time of intercourse does not necessarily fall in the period around ovulation.
2. Gametes produced may not be viable / may be defective
e.g. poor sperm mobility, sperms with structural defects
3. Oviducts is blocked.
4. Sperm duct is blocked
5. The sperm count of the husbands may be too low.
6. Unsuccessful implantation
7. No or few ovulation
不育的理由
1. 性交的時間未必處於排卵期附近
2. 所產生的配子未必是存活的/可能有缺陷
例如︰精子活動能力低、精子構造上有缺陷
3. 輸卵管閉塞
4. 輸精管閉塞
5. 男士的精子數目可能太少
6. 植入失敗
7. 沒有或少排卵
Solution of infertility : in vitro fertilization  test-tube baby

a. woman is given hormones to stimulate a large number of eggs
b. several eggs are collected
c. eggs transferred to a petri dish with a nutrient solution and semen
d. fertilized eggs are allowed to develop for 2 or 3 days
e. fertilized eggs have reached 8- to 16-cell stage
f. several of these embryos are placed into the woman’s uterus
不育的解決方法︰體外受精  試管嬰兒
a. 婦人須接受激素以刺激大量卵子
b. 抽取數顆卵子
c. 卵子放入載有養料的培養皿中，並加入精液樣本
d. 受精卵發展兩三日
e. 受精卵達到八或十六個細胞的階段
f. 數個胚胎放入該婦人的子宮內

3Cdi. Growth and development – concept 生長及發育 – 概念
Growth 生長︰ Cell division 細胞分裂

Cell enlargement 細胞增大
Development 發育︰ Cell differentiation 細胞分化
Cell division – increase the number of cell, but the size of cell decrease
a. zygote in human : after the egg fertilized, cell division begin
b. region 3 in root : carry out mitotic cell division
c. tip of stem
Cell enlargement – increase the size of cell
a. zygote in human : cell enlargement only occur after the implantation,
or else it will be trapped in oviduct
b. region 2 in root : cell enlarge due to absorption of nutrients and water
Cell differentiation – change the cell type
a. zygote in human : from 16 cells  more cells
b. region 1 in root : differentiate into different tissues e.g. xylem, phloem
細胞分裂 – 增加細胞數目、但細胞大小下降
a. 人類的合子︰當卵子受精後就會開始細胞分裂
b. 根部的區域 3︰進行有絲細胞分裂
c. 莖的末端
細胞增大 - 增加細胞大小
a. 人類的合子︰未植入前，細胞不會增大，否則會困於輸卵管
b. 根部的區域 2︰由於吸收營養和水分令細胞增大
細胞分化 – 轉變細胞類型
a. 人類的合子︰由 16 個細胞更多細胞
b. 根部的區域 1︰分化出不同的組織，例︰木質部、韌皮部
[region 4 : root cap 根冠]

3Cdii. Growth and development – seed dispersal

生長及發育 – 種子的傳播
Animal dispersal 動物傳播

1. by eating
a. Some seeds escape the chewing action of the teeth / the seed coat protect
seeds from being digested in the alimentary canal.
Thus, intact seeds are egested in the faeces.
b. Reason why fruit can help in the dispersal mechanism
i. The fruit has fleshy portion
ii. The fruit has a good smell / taste
iii. The outer skin of the fruit is in bright colour to attract animals to eat
tile fruit
2. by carrying
The fruit has hook
1. 通過進食
a. 有些種子未被牙齒嚼碎 / 種皮保護種子，
使它在消化道內未有被消化
因此完整的種子混在糞便中排遺而出
b. 果實幫助傳播機制的原因
i. 果實有多肉的部分
ii. 該果實帶有香氣/的味道很好
iii. 該果實外皮的顏色鮮艷以吸引動物進食該果實
2. 通過攜帶
果實有勾
Advantages of seed dispersal

1. It reduces competition within a species
2. It prevents the spread of diseases
3. It allows the species to explore new environments
種子傳播的好處
1. 可以減低種內的競爭
2. 防止疾病散播
3. 容許物種探索新環境

3Cdiii. Growth and development – seed germination

生長及發育 – 種子的萌發
Flower change to fruit 花轉為果

1. flower stalk 花柄  stalk scar 果柄
2. style 花柱  style scar 果篤
3. sepal 萼片  leave of fruit 果葉
Structure of seed 種子的結構
1. Coat : a. for protection

b. not formed from fertilized egg
2. Plumule: to develop into (shoot / stem and leaf) of the new plant
3. Radicle: to develop into root of the new plant
4. Cotyledon: a. to store food for developing new plant
b. food stored in form of starch and oil
1. 表皮 : a. 作保護之用
b. 不是由受精卵形成
2. 胚芽 : 生長成新植株的 (莖部 / 莖和葉)
3. 胚根 : 生長成新植株的根部
4. 子葉 : a. 儲存食物供新植株的生長
b. 食物以澱粉和油貯存


Process of seed germinate 種子萌發的過程

1. Water is needed
- to soften the seed coat for the emergence of the radicle.
- to swell the seed to rupture seed coat
- to activate the enzymes needed for germination.
- to hydrolyse the stored food (e.g. starch) for use in respiration to provide
the energy needed.
- to provide a medium for transporting the soluble food to growing parts for
use.
需要水
- 軟化種皮讓胚根穿過種子表皮
- 令種子腫脹使種皮爆裂
- 激活萌發所需要的酶
- 將儲存的食物水解，用作呼吸作用及提供能量
- 作為媒介提供運輸可溶解的食物到生長部分使用
2. Radicle is the first part that grows through the coat and grow downward
胚根最先穿過表皮長出及向下生長
3. Plumule grows through afterward and grow upward
胚芽繼而長出及向上生長
4. After the plumule grow out of the soil and leaves appear
胚芽長出泥土後，葉片出現
5. Before the leaves appear, all nutrient is come from cotyledon,
and the dry mass of the whole plant is decreasing
while the dry mass of radicle and plumule is increasing
After the leaves appear, it will carry out photosynthesis and produce food.
Once the rate of photosynthesis is higher than the rate of respiration,
the dry mass of the whole plant is increasing
葉片出現前，所有營養來自子葉，
整株植物乾質量會下降而胚根和胚芽的乾質量上升。
葉片出現後，它會進行光合作用及生產食物，
一旦光合作用速率比呼吸作用速率高，整株植物乾質量會上升。


[air = 空氣、wet soil = 濕潤泥土、stage = 階段、radicle = 胚根、

Seed coat = 種皮、white cotyledon = 白色的子葉、
green cotyledon = 綠色的子葉、first leaf = 第一塊葉]

3Cdiv. Growth and development – growth in plants 生長及發育 – 植物的生長
Method to measure the growth 生長的量度方法

1. Size : e.g. length, area
2. Fresh mass
a. advantage : the plant still alive
b. disadvantage : measurement shows greater variation, water content is
affected by different environmental conditions
3. Dry mass
a. mass without water / actual biomass
b. advantage :
more accurate measurement of the amount of organic matter present
c. Experiment : how to determine the dry mass
- dry the harvested plant in an oven at around 100 C
until a constant mass is obtained upon repeated weighing
1. 大小︰例長度、面積
2. 鮮質量
a. 好處︰植物仍然存在
b. 壞處︰量度結果會有較大差異，不同的環境條件會影響水的份量
3. 乾質量
a. 沒有水份的質量 / 實在的生物量
b. 好處︰更準確量度有機物質的存在數量
c. 實驗︰如何測定乾質量
- 將收割的植物放置在接近 100 C 的焗爐內焗乾
直至重覆量重時獲得不變的重量
[*Biomass 生物量 - the mass of organic matters, e.g. carbohydrates, proteins, fats
有機物質的質量，例如︰碳水化合物、蛋白質、脂肪]
