  2. Aging in dogs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aging_in_dogs

    One size fits all — A general rule of thumb is that the first year of a dog's life is equivalent to 15 human years, the second year equivalent to 9 human years, and each subsequent year about 5 human years. [3] So, a dog age 2 is equivalent to a human age 24, while a dog age 10 is equivalent to a human age 64.

  3. Alternation of generations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternation_of_generations

    Spores of two distinct sizes (heterospory or anisospory): larger megaspores and smaller microspores. When the two kinds of spore are produced in different kinds of sporangia, these are called megasporangia and microsporangia. A megaspore often (but not always) develops at the expense of the other three cells resulting from meiosis, which abort.

  4. Microspore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microspore

    Megaspores are structures that are part of the alternation of generations in many seedless vascular cryptogams, all gymnosperms and all angiosperms. Plants with heterosporous life cycles using microspores and megaspores arose independently in several plant groups during the Devonian period. [ 2 ]

  5. Megaspore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaspore

    Megaspores, also called macrospores, are a type of spore that is present in heterosporous plants. These plants have two spore types, megaspores and microspores . Generally speaking, the megaspore, or large spore, germinates into a female gametophyte , which produces egg cells .

    The reason for the difference is actually pretty simple. Even though dogs experience similar life stages to humans, they tend to age at different rates depending on how old they are.

    Origin During Life Cycle Meiospores Microspores: Produced sexually through meiosis, and give rise to a male gametophyte: Pollen in seed plants In plants, microspores, and in some cases megaspores, are formed from all four products of meiosis. Megaspores (macrospores) Produced sexually through meiosis, and give rise to a female gametophyte
