What part of a flower does pollen land?
Air born pollen can land any where on a flower but effective only if land on a stigma .
Which part of a flower receives pollen during pollination?
stigma True, but Ill explain more... Pollen from the Stamen- (male reproductive parts of a flower) must land on the Pistil-(female reproductive parts of a flower) for fertilization to occur, and thats when the seed grows in the ovary. :)
What is needed for pollination to take place?
In order for pollination to occur, what must happen to the pollen grains is that they have to be transferred to the stigma in a flower of the same species. The stigma is the female part of the flower.
Does the stigma in a flower produce pollen?
Pollen is male part of the flower and stigma is the uppermost part of the gynoecium (which is female part). Thus stigma does not produce pollen, rather pollen land on stigma after pollination to fertilize the egg inside the ovary of the flower.
What does the petal do for flower?
A flower petal attracts insects and other life forms that may spread it's pollen to other plants. This allows for reproduction.
Which part of the plant does the pollen grain need to land?
Stigma of the flower
WHY IS STIGMA IS STICKY?
So the pollen will stick.
Land plants no longer required water as a medium for reproduction with the evolution what?
Land plants no longer require water as a medium for reproduction with evolution because with the evolution of seeds and pollen it is no longer needed.
How is the sweet scent useful to flower?
The sweet scent attracts bugs, the bugs land on the flower and when they fly away they have pollen stuck to their feet, so when they land on another flower they begin pollenation which helps other plants grow.
Where do pollen grains go?
Out of hundreds and thousands of pollen grains produced by each flower a few land on the stigma during pollination and others just wither away.
How a flower is pollinated by wind?
Pollen grains, which to us look like powder, are blown by the wind to a nearby flower of the same species, where they can land and fertilize the egg. (a flower's ovum and pollen correspond to egg and sperm). Thus the plants reproduce sexually with a partner other than themselves!
Do bees know they are pollinating a flowers?
Bees do not ' know' anything. They just fly from flower to flower gathering pollen and nectar to take back home and feed baby bees. In the process, bees accidentally leave a wee bit of that pollen on other flowers - just enough to pollinate them.
