Think of pollen as a flower's sperm. It's carried, be it by water, air, or animal, to a different flower, where it is recieved. That other flower makes seeds which are then carried to a different location, planted, and grows into a new flower. So, pollen helps make baby flowers.
my bio teacher said that pollen in basically flower sperm. therefore, it "fertilizes" the "eggs" in the other flower's ovaries. so yeah. it fertilizes flowers. :)
The pollen falls on a stigma and helps reproduce.
Pollination
Pollen grains contain the male gamete (sex cell).
-pollen sticks to the stigma at the end of the pistil -pollen tubes grow down the pistil to the egg cells -sperm cells from the pollen moves down the tubes -fertilization combines DNA
Pollination is the spreading of pollen from the male to the female part of a flower. Fertilization is the sperm and egg joining to form a zygote and occurs in animals.
Canada thistle
Pollen germination starts on compatible stigma
it
pollen grain develop a tube that goes down the style
it dies
it dies
They cannot. The pollen fuses with the egg cells and the ovules turn in to seeds.
seeds form :)
Pollination
Pollen grains contain the male gamete (sex cell).
when pollen grains falls on stigma, it creates a pollen tube which dilivers pollen grain and fuses with female gametes present in the ovule
It disintegrates
It cannot reproduce.
