Plants that reproduce asexually only have one parent. A “bit” of the plant becomes detached and then grows into a new plat. There is no union of gametes.

REQUIRES THE UNION OF MALE AND FEMALE reproductive cells (GAMETeS) in the formation of a new organism.

ORGAN

COROLLA: CONSIsts of all

the petalsCalyx: consists of

all the sepals.

PETALS attract insects to pollinate

Sepals protect the flower

Filament supports the anther

Anther is the organ thatProduces the pollen

Stigma receives the pollen from the anther

Style is the neck of the pistil

Ovary is the organ that Produces the ovules

FUNCTIONS

1- POLLINATION:is the process by which pollen is moved from THE STAMEN OF oneflower to THE PISTIL OF another (CROSS POLINATION)

POLLEN CAN BE CARRIED BY INSECTS OR OTHER ANIMALS, WIND OR WATER

2- FERTILISATION:IS THE PROCESS IN WHICH POLLEN AND AN OVULE ARE JOINED INTO THE OVARY.After fertilisation, the ovule develops into a seed. The seed IS TRANSFORMED INTO A fruit.

3- GERMINATION:When conditions OF THE GROUND are appropriate, the seed begins to grow into a new plant.
