We have all seen bees fly around flowers. When a bee drinks nectar from one flower they sometimes brush up against the stamen. When they go to another flower, they can drop some pollen on the pistil. What process are the bees helping with?
pollination
germination
fertilization
seed dispersal
In which part of the flower does fertilization take place? Be specific.
the stamen
the pistil
the ovary
the petals
The primary function of these parts of the flower is
reproduction
photosynthesis
germination
metamorphosis
The petals job is not only to protect the reproductive parts of the plant, but also to
keep wind away from the stamen
attract pollinators with their colors
absorb sunlight
fall off and become food for bugs

blow in the wind

Which of the following lists the processes in the order they need to occur, even though there is no start and no end.
pollination, fertilization, seed dispersal, germination
fertilization, pollination, seed dispersal, germination

Which is an example of asexual reproduction by regeneration?
cloning sheep
lizard regrowing a tail
sea star arm producing a new organism
strawberry plant producing stolons
Which statement describes why genetic variation is beneficial to populations of organisms?
