Term
Definition
flowers   The reproductive structure of some plants.  
🗑
germination   The early stage of seed growth.  
🗑
pollination   The transfer of pollen from the male part to the female part of a plant.  
🗑
pollen grains   The male reproductive structure of a plant (sperm cells).  
🗑
seed   A structure that contains a young plant in a protective covering.  
🗑
fertilization   The joining of a sperm cell (pollen) and an egg cell (ovule).  
🗑
sexual reproduction   A process that involves two parent plants to form a new organism that differs from the parents.  
🗑
flower   A structure made by some plants to house the seed and attract dispersers.  
🗑
plant propagation   The process of growing new plants from plant parts.  
🗑
asexual reproduction   A process that involves only one parent plant and produces offspring identical to the parent.  
🗑
pistil   female part (stigma + style + ovary)  
🗑
stamen   male part (anther + filament)  
🗑
anther   makes pollen

🗑
stigma   collects pollen and is sticky  
🗑
style   stalk that contains the pollen tube  
🗑
ovary   contains ovule eggs  
🗑
ovule   egg sex cells (female)  
🗑
pollen   male sex cells  
🗑
petal   scent and color attract pollinators  
🗑

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
