  Self-pollination  Cross-pollination

Name and describe the 2 means by which pollen can travel.

- flowers must be perfect

- pollination by: a. gravity b. wind c. other organisms

- flowers could be perfect or imperfect

- pollination by: a. wind b. other organisms

**without pollination, there is no fertilization**

wind - if grains are light enough, the wind will carry them from the male plant/part to the female

plant/part

other organisms - pollinators like bees, butterflies, small mammals, and birds will accidently have pollen grains attach to them while they are feeding on one flower and carry that pollen with them to whatever

other flowers the pollinators visit

Name and describe the parts of the seed below.

What group of plants did this seed come from? How do you know?

In order for this seed to become a plant, what process must occur?

Name and describe the parts of the seed below.

What group of plants did this seed come from? How do you know?

In order for this seed to become a plant, what process must occur?

Seed coat/covering - protects the seed from harsh conditions in the environment (i.e. poor soil conditions, drought)Endosperm (stored food) - energy source used by embryo to grow until its green leaves reach the surface, and it can make its own food through photosynthesis; results from fertilization of the ovuleEmbryo - grows into a new plant; results from fertilization of the egg

Vegetative Propagation

Natural Unnatural

- is caused by the plant

- means a. bulbs b. tubers c. runners d. rhizomes e. layering

- is caused by humans

- means a. layering b. cutting

- asexual reproduction in plants (offspring are clones)

- could come from leaves, stems, roots, or buds
