| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| pollination | happens when a grain of pollen lands on the stigma |
| pistil | the female part of a flower |
| gymnosperm | a vascular plant that does not have flowers ans usually produces its seeds inside a cone with only the seed coat for a protective covering |
| angiosperm | a vascular plant that has flowers and protects its seeds inside a fruit |
| germination | sprouting roots |
| cotyledons | the tiny seed leaves of the embryo, stores food for the seeds |
| stolons | creeping stems |
| regeneration | a method of asexual reproduction in which a new organism can grow from one piece of the parent plant |
| budding | a method of reproduction in which a new organism develops on the parent organism and grows until it is able to survive on its own then it breaks off from the parent plant |
| fruit | the part of the plant that contains seeds |
| self-pollination | pollen is transferred from the anther to the stigma of the same flower or to another flower on the same plant |
| asexual reproduction | the process of reproducing from only one parent |
| binary fission | a method of asexual reproduction in which a parent cell divides into two cells. Each new cell is an independent organism |
| vegetative reproduction | a method of reproduction in which a part of a plant that normally involved in reproduction grows into a new plant |
| zygote | fertilized egg |
| cross-pollination | the transferring of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on another plant |
| spore | a one cell reproduction system that does not store food for the new plant |
| Gymnosperms are pollinated by the _____. | wind |
| When a flower is __________ the pollen grows a tiny ____ into the ovule of the ______. | pollinated, tube, pistil |
| After a plants ___ cell is _________ the ovule becomes the seed coat and the ovary develops into the _____ | egg, fertilized, fruit |
| ____ and ______ reproduce through ______ | Ferns, mosses, spores |
| The three parts of a ____ are ______, ______, and seed coats | seed, embryo, cotyledons |
| How is a spore different from a seed? | A spore consists of only one cell and does not provide food. A seed provides food and has more than one cell |
| What is the difference between self pollination and cross pollination? | cross pollination is transferred from one flower on another plant and self pollination is transferred to another flower on the same plant |
| after a zygote cell develops for thew first time it is called an _______ | embryo |
| ______ are runners or creeping stems from which plants such as strawberries can reproduce | stolens |
| Plants that grow from _____________ can grow new plants when a leaf or stem is placed in water or soil | cuttings |
| Vegetative ____________ occurs when part of a plant usually not involved in reproduction develops into a new plant | reproduction |
| After a plants ___ cell is _________ the ovule becomes the seed coat and the ovary develops into the _____ | egg, fertilized, fruit |
| ____ and ______ reproduce through ______ | Ferns, mosses, spores |
| The three parts of a ____ are ______, ______, and seed coats | seed, embryo, cotyledons |
| How is a spore different from a seed? | A spore consists of only one cell and does not provide food. A seed provides food and has more than one cell |
| What is the difference between self pollination and cross pollination? | cross pollination is transferred from one flower on another plant and self pollination is transferred to another flower on the same plant |
| after a zygote cell develops for thew first time it is called an _______ | embryo |
| ______ are runners or creeping stems from which plants such as strawberries can reproduce | stolens |
| Plants that grow from _____________ can grow new plants when a leaf or stem is placed in water or soil | cuttings |
| Vegetative ____________ occurs when part of a plant usually not involved in reproduction develops into a new plant | reproduction |
| the male part of the flower | stamen |
| the female part of the flower | pistil |
| T/F The embryo of the plant contains the seeds. | False. Fruit |
| T/F A spore is much smaller than a seed and consists of only one cell | True |
| T/F The special leaves that store food inside the seed are called embryos. | False. cotyledons |
| When pollen is transferred from the anther to the stigma of the same flower or another flower on the same plant _______ ________ occurs. | self-pollination |
| When pollen is transferred from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on another plant ______ _______ occurs | cross pollination |
| __________ are plants that produce seeds enclosed in a fruit | Angiosperms |
| Asexual reproduction requires only ___ parent | one |
| In both plant and animal reproduction the zygote develops into a tiny ____ | embryo |
| Plants that produce seeds protected by a cone or fleshy seed coat are called _________. | gymnosperms |
| A organism splits in half and becomes two seperate organisms | binary fission |
| A new plant grows from a part of the plant not usually involved in reproduction | vegetative reproduction |
| An organism breaks into many pieces that become new organisms | fragmentation |
| a new organism can grow from a piece of the parent organism such as the reproduction of a new sea star from the broken off arm and part of the center of the parent sea star. | regeneration |
| A new organism grows on the parent organism and grows until it is able to survive on its own then it breaks off of the parent |
