Plant Life Cycles

What is pollination?

• Process of water absorption in plants

• Process of seed dispersal in plants

• Transfer of pollen from male to female flower

• Process of fertilization in plants

Name the two types of pollination.

• wind pollination and insect pollination

• animal pollination and water pollination

• asexual pollination and sexual pollination

• self-pollination and cross-pollination

What is the main purpose of pollination?

• To spread diseases among plants.

• To provide a source of food for animals.

• To control the population of insects.

• To transfer pollen for fertilization and seed production.

What is fertilization in plants?

• Fertilization in plants is the fusion of male and female gametes.

• Fertilization in plants is the process of photosynthesis.

• Fertilization in plants is the absorption of nutrients from the soil.

• Fertilization in plants is the process of pollination.

Explain the process of double fertilization.

• Double fertilization is the fusion of two sperm cells with two different female gametes, resulting in the formation of only the zygote.

• Double fertilization is the fusion of two egg cells with two different sperm cells, resulting in the formation of both the zygote and the endosperm.

• Double fertilization is the fusion of two sperm cells with two different male gametes, resulting in the formation of both the zygote and the endosperm.

• Double fertilization is the fusion of two sperm cells with two different female gametes, resulting in the formation of both the zygote and the endosperm.

What is seed dispersal?

• Seed dispersal is the process of burying seeds underground.

• Seed dispersal is the process of destroying seeds.

• Seed dispersal is the process of preventing seeds from germinating.

• Seed dispersal is the process of spreading or transporting seeds away from the parent plant to new locations.

List three methods of seed dispersal.

• wind dispersal, animal dispersal, water dispersal

• explosion dispersal

• gravity dispersal

• human dispersal

What is asexual reproduction in plants?

• Asexual reproduction in plants is the production of new plants from seeds.

• Asexual reproduction in plants is the production of new plants through the combination of genetic material from two parents.

• Asexual reproduction in plants is the production of new plants from two parents through the process of fertilization.

• Asexual reproduction in plants is the production of new plants from a single parent without the involvement of gametes or fertilization.

Name two methods of asexual reproduction in plants.

• Budding, Binary fission

• Vegetative propagation, Apomixis

• Grafting, Fragmentation

• Pollination, Fertilization

What is sexual reproduction in plants?

• Pollination by wind

• Budding and fragmentation

• Fusion of male and female gametes

• Asexual reproduction through spores
