Reproduction and Growth
(Plants Gone Wild)

2. sexual (flowering plants)
alternation of generations - a life cycle of both haploid and diploid generations (mosses and ferns)

3. Diploid = multicellular plant
produces spores (through meiosis)
Haploid = gametophytes
will make gametes (“sperm” / “egg”)

4. Reproductive Anatomy flowering plants have male and female “parts”
The Flower
- sepals
Petals
reproductive parts

5. Sepal – enclose flower before it opens
protection

6. Petals – attract pollinators

8. Male and Female Parts Male part: STAMEN filament (stalk) anther (tip)
Female part: PISTIL
stigma (sticky tip)
style (stalk)
ovary (base)

13. Seeds = fertilized zygotes (would become a new plant)

15. Fruits and Seeds
