🗑
|
||||
| Pollen (polen) | Formed on the stamen, contains the sperm cells
🗑
|
||||

|
||||
| Deciduous | Plants that drop their leaves in the fall
🗑
|
||||
| Spore (esporangios) | Reproductive cells of ferns, mosses, liverworts, mushrooms, mold, and yeast - reproduction does not require a male and female - the spore is both
🗑
|
||||
| Unicellular | Made up of only one cell
🗑
|
||||
