sexual and asexual reproduction in plants

Question 1

Includes the anther (where pollen is produced) and the filament (holds the anther).

Answer 1

Male Part (Stamen)

Question 2

Includes the stigma (where pollen lands), the style (tube for pollen to travel), and the ovary (contains the ovules).

Answer 2

Female Part (Pistil or Carpel

Question 3

the transfer of pollen from the male anther to the female stigma.

Answer 3

Pollination

Question 4

Pollen from the same plant fertilizes the ovule

Answer 4

Self-pollination

Question 5

Pollen from another plant fertilizes the ovule, often assisted by insects, wind, or water.

Answer 5

Cross-pollination

Question 6

What happens during fertilization in plants?

Answer 6

Once pollen lands on the stigma, it germinates and forms a pollen tube that travels down the style to the ovary. Two sperm cells travel down the tube:

One sperm fertilizes the egg, forming a zygote, which develops into the plant embryo.
The other sperm fertilizes two other nuclei, forming the endosperm, which nourishes the embryo.

Question 7

What is seed and fruit development in plants?

Answer 7

The ovule becomes a seed.
The ovary develops into a fruit, which protects the seed and aids in its dispersal.

Question 8

What are the ways seeds can be dispersed?

Answer 8

by wind, water, animals and Explosive Dispersal

Question 9

what seeds that are carried away by wind

Answer 9

light seeds

Question 10

use water currents for dispersal

Answer 10

aquatic plants

Question 11

Seeds can stick to animal fur or be eaten and excreted

Answer 11

Animals

Question 12

Some plants have pods that burst open to scatter seeds.

Answer 12

Explosive Dispersal

Question 13

grows first, anchoring the plant.

Answer 13

The radicle (root

Question 14

grows next, starting the process of photosynthesis.

Answer 14

The shoot (stem and leaves)

Question 15

It promotes genetic variation, helping plants adapt to changing environments.

Answer 15

Genetic Diversity

Question 16

It ensures the continuation of plant species and leads to the evolution of new traits.

Answer 16

Species Survival

Question 17

plants does not involve fertilization and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent plant.

Answer 17

Asexual reproduction

Question 18

What are the types of asexual reproduction in plants?

Answer 18

budding, vegetative propagation, fragmentation, tubers, bulbs, rhizomes, stolons

Question 19

A new plant develops from a bud.

Answer 19

budding

Question 20

New plants grow from roots, stems, or buds.

Answer 20

Vegetative Propagation

Question 21

Plants break into pieces that grow into new plants.

Answer 21

Fragmentation

Question 22

Swollen underground stems that produce new shoots.

Answer 22

Tubers

Question 23

Storage organs that produce new plants.

Answer 23

Bulbs

Question 24

Underground stems that produce new plants.

Answer 24

Rhizomes

Question 25

Runners that produce new plants, like in strawberries.

Answer 25

Stolons

Question 26

What are the artificial methods of asexual reproduction in plants?

Answer 26

cutting, grafting, layering and micropropagarion

Question 27

: Taking part of a plant to produce a new one.

Answer 27

Cuttings

Question 28

Combining favorable stem and root characteristics.

Answer 28

Grafting

Question 29

Covering a branch with soil to develop roots.

Answer 29

Layering

Question 30

Growing plants asexually from a small amount of plant tissue (tissue culture).

Answer 30

Micropropagation

Question 31

What are the advantages of asexual reproduction in plants?

Answer 31

Plants reach maturity faster. Plants are sturdier than seedlings.

Question 32

reproduce asexually through tubers, which are swollen underground stems that produce new shoots.

Answer 32

Potatoes

Question 33

reproduces asexually through bulbs, which are underground storage organs that produce new plants.

Answer 33

garlic

Question 34

reproduce asexually through bulbs, which allow the plant to regenerate new growth.

Answer 34

Onions

Question 35

reproduce asexually through bulbs, enabling them to produce new plants without seeds.

Answer 35

Crocuses

Question 36

reproduces asexually through rhizomes, which are underground stems that can produce new plants.

Answer 36

Ginger

Question 37

reproduce asexually through stolons (runners), which grow new plants at the nodes.

Answer 37

Strawberries
