Question 18

Answer 18

a stem or leaf

Question 19

…… is bent to the ground and covered with soil.

Corms are swollen stem bases, and rhizomes are horizontal underground stems. Spore formation: Example: Rhizopus, fern Observed in fungi like bread mold. Sporangium has spores which develop to a new plant when it finds moisture. Budding Example: yeast. Formation of an outgrowth called a bud. Fragmentation Example: spirogyra. It involves breaking into fragments, each fragment develops into a new organism. Sexual Reproduction in Plants Sexual reproduction in plants involves the fusion of male and female gametes, leading to offspring with genetic variation. This process occurs through the formation of flowers, pollination, and seed development. Flower Structure Flowers are the reproductive structures of angiosperms (flowering plants). A typical flower consists of the following parts: Sepals: Protect the developing flower bud. Petals: Attract pollinators with their color and scent.

A stem
