A

Sexual Reproduction

34
Q

Sexual reproduction in ________ is also common.

A

Q

The big trees that you see in your surroundings are all ________, the most
dominant generation in the life cycles of angiosperms.

A

sporophytes

53
Q

Pollination is the transfer of pollen from the _______ to the ______ of a flower.

A

ANTHER to the STIGMA

54
Q

happens when the pollen lands on the stigma of
the flower coming from the same plant.

A

Self Pollination

55
Q

pollen tube cell grows toward the location of the embryo sac, forming a pollen tube.

A

Cross Pollination

56
Q

As the pollen tube grows, the
generative cell divides to form ______________

A

two sperm cells or nuclei

57
Q

Inside the embryo sac, one sperm nucleus fuses with the two
