Sporophytes (2n) undergo meiosis to produce spores that develop into gametophytes (1n) which undergo mitosis. Describe the role of the sporophyte and gametophyte in plant reproduction. The diploid stage of a plant (2n), the sporophyte, bears a sporangium, an organ that produces spores during meiosis.
In chemistry, a ketone (alkanone) /ËkiËtoÊn/ is an organic compound with the structure RC(=O)R', where R and R' can be a variety of carbon-containing substituents. Ketones and aldehydes are simple compounds that contain a carbonyl group (a carbon-oxygen double bond).etones differ from aldehydes in that the carbonyl group (CO) is bonded to two carbons within a carbon skeleton. In aldehydes, the carbonyl is bonded to one carbon and one hydrogen and are located at the ends of carbon chains.
An aldehyde is a type of organic carbon-based molecule. Specifically, itâs one that contains (somewhere) a set of three particular atoms â carbon (C), oxygen (O), and hydrogen (H) arranged just so: Formaldehyde is the simplest aldehyde â the rest of the molecule besides the requisite CHO piece is just one tiny hydrogen.n aldehyde is a type of organic carbon-based molecule.
