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.
The aim of this experiment was to identify which functional groups the various chemicals and unknown substances belonged to using the different reaction tests. The main purpose was to determine the reactions of Aldehydes and Ketones. Aldehydes and Ketones are organic compounds consisting of the carbonyl functional group. Aldehydes contain their carbonyl group at the end of the carbon chain and are susceptible to oxidation while Ketones contain theirs in the middle of the carbon chain and are resistant to oxidation.
