Plant Growth and Reproduction

Plant parts work together as a system for reproduction. Choose the answer that shows the steps of the system in the correct order.

• Pollen is releases by the male cone, it lands on the female cone, the egg is fertilized, the seed develops and falls to the ground, a new tree can begin to grow.

• Pollen is releases by the male cone, , the egg is fertilized, the seed develops and falls to the ground, pollen lands on the female cone, a new tree can begin to grow.

Study the picture. Match the plant to the correct description of how it reproduces.

• This plant uses spores that, if they land in the right place, grow into a heart-shaped structure. This structure grows and releases male and egg cells.

• This plant produces cones, In the spring pollen is released from the male cone. If pollen from a male cone lands on a female cone of the same type of tree, the egg will be fertilized.
