Back 7

Asexual

Front 8

Back 8

Asexual

Front 9

With which type of reproduction do the parents and offspring share the exact same genetic material?

Back 10

Asexual

Front 11

Describe Asexual reproduction in plants

Back 11

Plants reproduce from a part of their own root stem or leaf

Front 12

Give an example of a plant that reproduces asexually that forms a frond, which matures and detaches to form a new plant

Back 12

Duckweed

Front 13

Give an example of a plant that reproduces asexually and whose stems arch to the ground and from which new leaves and stems form

Back 13

Strawberries

Front 14

Name 3 ways plants reproduce sexually

Back 14

Flowers, cones, spores

Front 15

How do conifers and flowers reproduce?

Back 15

Seeds

Front 16

Name the three aspects of seeds

Back 16

Embryo, cotyledon, seed coat

Front 17

What is an embryo?

Back 17

Small immature plant

Front 18

What is a cotyledon?

Back 18

Food reserve

Front 19

What is a seed coat?

Back 19

Protective covering

Front 20

What plants have gymnosperms?

Back 20

Conifers

Front 21

What is a gymnosperm?

Back 21

Naked seed that only has a seed coat

Front 22

In conifers, what protects the gymnosperms?

Back 22

Cone

Front 23

What do you call seeds enclosed in a pod?

Back 23

Angiosperms

Front 24

What is the MALE reproductive organ in a plant?

Back 24

Stamen

Front 25

What reproductive material is contained in the pollen?

Back 25

Spermatozoa

Front 26

What is the Female reproductive organ of the plant?

Back 26

pistil

Front 27

what is contained in the pistil?

Back 27

ovaries

Front 28

is pollen male or female?

Back 28

pollen is male

Front 29

how does pollen fertilise a flower?

Back 29

pollen must land on the stigma of the pistil

Front 30

what is self-pollination

Back 30

pollen is carried to the pistil on the same flower

Front 31

what it cross-pollination?

Back 31

pollen is carried (by wind or insects mainly) from one flower to another flower's pistil

Front 32

what are male gametes?

Back 32

spematozoa

Front 33

what are female gametes

Back 33

ovules

Front 34

when male and female gametes combine, what do they form?

Back 34

They form a zygote

Front 35

what is the first stage of seed developement?

Front 36

what are 4 ways seeds are dispersed

Back 36

wind, water, insects and the plant itself

Front 37

In conifers, what is contained in female cone?

Back 37

ovaries which contain ovules

Front 38

In conifers, what is contained in male cone?

Back 38

winged pollen grains which contain spermotozoon

Front 39

How does fertilization occur in conifers

Back 39

wind carries pollen to ovary, then zygote is produced

Front 40

Give 2 examples of spore-producing plants

Back 40

ferns and mosses

Front 41

How does reproduction occur in spore-producing plants?

Back 41

Spermatozoa sims to ovule in thin film of water then produce zygote which produces female plant.
