What else can I help you with?
Do pollination take place in ferns?
Yes they do. Most commonly called spoaring. They spread spoares in the air.
What is the reaction of ferns when pollen stays on it?
Ferns do not produce pollen; instead, they reproduce via spores. When spores land on a suitable environment, they can germinate and develop into a gametophyte, which eventually leads to the formation of new fern plants. If pollen from seed plants accidentally lands on a fern, it has no effect, as ferns and seed plants reproduce through entirely different mechanisms. Ferns rely on water for fertilization, specifically for sperm to swim to the egg cell, while pollen is a feature of seed-producing plants.
Do ferns have fruit?
Most fern has seed, but a very little produce fruit.
Does seedless plants have pollen?
Yes, seedless plants produce pollen. Pollen is the male reproductive structure responsible for transferring sperm cells to female reproductive structures in plants for fertilization. Seedless plants, such as ferns and mosses, rely on spores for reproduction, but they still produce pollen for this purpose.
Do all trees release pollen?
Not all plants need to make seeds. Ferns and mosses for example do not have to produce seeds to spread.
Do gymnosperms depend on water?
Yes, gymnosperms do not depend on water for fertilization like mosses or ferns do. They reproduce through the dispersal of pollen, which does not require water as a medium for transportation.
Why plants need pollen and spore?
Pollen is essential for plant reproduction as it carries male gametes to female reproductive organs for fertilization. Spores, on the other hand, are reproductive cells that allow certain plants like ferns, mosses, and algae to reproduce asexually and ensure genetic diversity. Both pollen and spores are crucial for plant survival and propagation.
How do plants on the forest floor pollinate?
It depends on the type of plant. Some rely on wind, animals, and other pollen dispersion vectors. Others, such as ferns and moss, reproduce asexually by distributing spores.
What is a fact about ferns?
There are 20,000 species of ferns. Ferns are vascular.
What is a nonflowering plant capable of producing seeds?
Well, there is an African violet that when it blooms there is only the sex parts (pollen sacs) that appear so I am sure there are others. Ask you local nurseryman.
What is the difference between spores and pollen?
Spores are reproductive cells produced by fungi and some plants that can develop into new organisms. Pollen, on the other hand, is the male reproductive cells in seed plants that are responsible for fertilizing the ovule to produce seeds. Spores are more resistant and can survive harsh conditions, while pollen is carried by wind, insects, or animals to reach the female reproductive organs.
Does ferns have chloroplast?
Ferns are green plants.So they do have chloroplasts.
