2. Flowering Plant Reproduction Flowers are modified leaves, specialized for reproduction.Flowers are modified leaves, specialized for reproduction. Flowers form on the diploid SporophyteFlowers form on the diploid Sporophyte Flower parts undergo meiosis to produce haploid GametophytesFlower parts undergo meiosis to produce haploid Gametophytes –pollen grain –embryo sac Pollen grains embryo sac Flower Sporophyte Gametophytes

3. A Complete Flower Has Both Male and Female Parts Sepal Petal Ovary Style Stigma PistilPistil Anther Filament StamenStamen All Sepals=Calyx All Petals=Corolla

4. Plant Reproduction Flower Part Function Sepals Enclose and protect bud Petals Attract pollinators Stamen Produce pollen in anther Pistil (carpel) Produce ovule in ovary

5. Flowering Plant Life Cycle Haploid 1n Diploid 2n Mature Sporophyte meiosis Megaspore (female) Microspore (male) mitosis, differentiation mitosis, differentiation Male Gametophyte (Pollen) Sperm Cells Female Gametophyte (Embryo Sac) Egg Cell fusion to form zygote in ovary mitosis, differentiation, growth

6. Mature Pollen Grain Pollination and Fertilization in a Flower Tube Cell Nucleus Sperm Cells 1.pollen grains land on stigma Stigma Style Ovary 2.pollen tubes grow down style to ovary Sperm Egg 3bFusion of sperm + egg 3aFusion of 2 nd sperm + two polar nuclei 3.double fertilization Polar nuclei Ovule
