life cycle of flowering plants Flashcards
life cycle of flowering plants are…
double feritilization
pistil
female part of flowering plant
petals
attracts
ovule
inside ovary
stigma
sticky top, stickly because need to attract pollen grain
anther
produce pollne
inside the ovule
two polar, haploid d bodies and haploid egg
ovary
when it become bigger = fruit,
ripened ovary fruits
cucumber, avocado
ovule then,…..
becomes a seed, if only one ovule = only one seed produced, if many ovule = many seeds produced
inside the pollen
generative nucleus and tube nucleus (both are haploid),
the tuble nuclues
creates a pollen tube, at the head of pollen tube = tube nucleus, pollen goes al the way down the style to the ovary and enter through the base of the ovule,
double feritilization
to feritilization with two sperms
purpose of the tube nucleus
get sperm to egg
gene
divides by mitosis and create two sperm cells, occurs early in pollen tube
