Plant Basics | Plant Parts | Pollination | Female Parts of a Plant | Male Parts of a Plant |
---|---|---|---|---|
The seed.
What is the first stage in the growth of many plants?
|
The roots.
What absorbs water and nutrients from the soil, anchors plants in the ground, provides support for the plant?
|
Pollination is the process of transference of pollen grains to the stigma from the anther.
What is pollination?
|
The female reproductive structure of the flower contains stigma style and ovary.
What is the pistil?
|
The male reproductive structure of the flower it contains the antler and pollen.
What is the stamen?
|
A small plant breaks out of the seed.
What happens when a seed germinates?
|
the cambium.
What is the layer between the xylem and phloem that produces new cells for both?
|
The transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the same flower.
What is self pollination?
|
The lower part of a pistil that produces eggs in ovules.
What is the ovary?
|
Produces sperm cell which are contained in pollen grains.
What is the anther?
|
Photosynthesis.
The food making process for plants is called
|
The sepal.
What are the leaves that make up the outer ring of flower parts; protect and cover the flower while it is still a bud?
|
The transfer of the anthers of flowers of one plant to the stigma of flower of another plant.
What is cross pollination?
|
The sticky portion at the top of the style where pollen grains frequently land.
What is the stigma?
|
In algae, a long threadlike colony formed by many green algae; in plants, a long, thin structure that supports an anther.
What is the filament?
|
Chlorophyll.
Where do plants get their green color?
|
The ovule.
What is the female reproductive cell which will become a seed when fertilized?
|
The pollen grain carries the male gamete.
What is the pollen grain?
|
The long tube between the stigma and the ovary pollen travels down it to get to the egg cell.
What is the style?
|
a fine powdery substance, typically yellow, consisting of microscopic grains discharged from the male part of a flower or from a male cone. Each grain contains a male gamete that can fertilize the female ovule, to which pollen is transported by the wind, insects, or other animals.
Bonus:
What is pollen? |
If plants seeds being to grow to close together, then they begin to compete for ligiht, water and nutrients.
What happens when plants are planted to close together?
|
The stigma.
What is the female reproductive structure of a flower
stigma located at the top of the carpel; receives the pollen during fertilization? |
Pollen grain germinates only if it has fallen on the stigma of the same plant species,otherwise it gets decomposed.Stigma provides sugar to feed the pollen cell, a pollen tube grows out of the pollen grain by breaking through its exine.
Describe the germination of pollen grain.
|
The egg cell that developes in the ovary.
What is the ovule?
|
a leaflike structure that encloses the bud of a flower.

What is the sepal for? |
