What are the male and the female part of a plant called?
The male part is the stamen, which is the pollen producer, and the female is the pistil, the pollen receptor. Female: pistal, style, ovules, and stigma Male: stamen, anther, filament, pollen
Does the pollen come from a male or female part of the flower?
The 'pistil' is a female part of a flower. However flowers usually have both male and female parts, it is unusual for a plant to be just male or female (although there are examples such as 'holly' and 'cannabis').
Is pollen in the male part of the plant or the female?
Pollen is the male part of the plant as it grows down to the egg of the flower which is a female part of the plant. and it it is in the middle also.
WHAT IS THE Difference between male and female pine cones?
The pine cones that you are familiar with are probably female pine cones. You probably have never noticed male pine cones because they are much smaller and don't look much like the female pine cones. Male pine cones are much smaller and produce pollen grains. Female pine cones contain the egg. The pollen is carried from the male pine cones to the female pine cones by the wind.
The sperm cells of a flowering plant are contained where?
In plants they are called gametes not sperm cells. The male gametes are found in pollen grains and the female gametes in the ovules (eggs). In angiosperms they are found in the parts of the flowers. Pollen is found in the anthers (male part of the flower) which are in the centre (attached to the fillament-like stamens) of the flower, the anthers and stamens surround the stigma and style (female parts of the flower). In gymnosperms they are found in the male and female cones attached to the plant.
What is the name of male sex cell in animals?
In animals it would be called a sperm. In plants I assume the answer would be the pollen, however, the pollen is not necessarily one cell. Even if it is one cell it will have more than one nucleus (2 or 3).
What happens when pollen is moved from the anthers to the stigma?
Pollen grains contain the male gamete (sex cell).
What is the structure that develops into a pollen grain?
First pollen falls from a male cone onto a female cone. In time a sperm cell and an egg cell join together in an ovule on the female cone
Can flowers be both male and female How?
Yes, flowers can have both male and female reproductive parts. These types of flowers are called "perfect" or "hermaphroditic" flowers. They contain both the male stamen, which produces pollen, and the female pistil, which contains the ovary. This allows them to self-pollinate or be pollinated by other flowers.
What are reproductive cells in the pollen?
Pollen are male sex cells. So they contain sperms.
What does a pollen grain and ovule each contain?
Pollen grains contain the male gametes required for sexual reproduction of a plant/ flower. These are haploid, and only contain half the full set of chromosomes; the other half is contributed by the female gamete (or ovule).A grain of pollen contains:a larger vegetative cell (also called the tube cell) inside of which is aa smaller germ cell (also called the generative cell).The pollen grain "germinates" on the stigma of the receptive flower and grows down the style, once it reaches the ovule the germ cell/ nucleus fuses with the nucleus of the ovule and an embryo is formed
In angiosperms the male gametophyte is?
The male gametophyte in an angiosperm is the stamen. The female gametophyte in an angiosperm is the pistil.This is completely wrong. The male gametophyte consists of the generative cell and the tube cell in the pollen grain. The female gametophyte is the 7-celled 8 nucleate embryo sac.
Does pollen come from the male or female part of the flower?
Pollen comes from male part of the flower.
The male sex cell from pollen grain?
The male sex cells from pollen grain are called male gametes.
What are the male and the female part of a plant called?
The male part is the stamen, which is the pollen producer, and the female is the pistil, the pollen receptor. Female: pistal, style, ovules, and stigma Male: stamen, anther, filament, pollen
What are the seeds of a Christmas trees or pine trees called?
Pine trees have cones. There are male cones, which are smaller (about 1-5 cm), and female cones, which are larger (3-60 cm). The male cones contain pollen. The female cones have ovules, which become seeds when fertilized by pollen from a male cone.
How does fertilization in plants?
the pollen grains after landing on the stigma germinate to send out pollen tubes through which the male gametes reach near the egg cell of embryo sac in the ovule to fuse with. this fusion of male and female gametes (egg cell) is called fertilization.
