1. Seeded Plant Reproduction

2. Sexual
Sexual Reproduction--One organism is produced by two organisms with sex cells.
The off-spring is genetically different from the parents.

3. Male Parts of the Flower
Stamen--The male reproductive organ of a plant.
Filament-holds up the anther
Anther-where pollen is produced

4. Female Parts of the Flower
Pistil- female part of the flower
Stigma- sticky part that collects pollen
Style- carries pollen from the stigma to the ovaries
Ovaries- where fertilization takes place and where egg develop.

5. Haploid Cells
Haploid Cells- Cells that have half of the number of chromosomes
Pollen- sperm of the plant
Ovule- egg of the plant

6. Pollination
Pollination- transfer of pollen to the female part of the plant
Pollen can be transported by gravity, wind, water currents, or animals.

7. Sexual Reproduction Fertilization—when sperm and egg unite.
Diploid- cells with the full number of chromosomes
Zygote--the first cell of a new organism.

8. The zygote form into a seed with 3 parts.
Embryo-Baby Plant (also called a cotyledon)
Stored Food-food for the baby plant
Protective Coat- Protects the embryo and its food

9. Seed dispersal-the way seeds get from place to place.
Ex.-Dandelion-blown by air
Ex. Berries-eaten by animals.
Ex. Burrs-cling to animals.
Germination--Series of events that result in the growth of a plant from a seed. Germination time varies for all plants.
