Q

Explain Fertilisation

A

Pollen lands on stigma, grows down through style, the male and female sex cells (gametes) fuse into a zygote

16
Q

Explain Seed formation

A

The zygote becomes the seed embryo, the ovary becomes the seed coat
Sometimes the ovary swells to become soft a fleshy (the fruit)

17
Q

Explain Dispersal

A

Seed is brought away from plant by wind, water, animal, or self dispersal

18
Q

Explain Germination

A

When seed lands in good conditions, it will develop into a plant
