How is pollen transferred from the male to the female cone?
By various means, depending on the species. In some, bees and other insects go for the honey and in doing so get pollen on them which they then transfer to another flower when they visit that. In others, wind blows the pollen from the anthers (the male part) to the stigma (the female part). In others, the anthers bend over and touch the stigma. All sorts of methods.
What is one entire male gametophyte of a gymnosperm?
The male gametophyte of a gymnosperm is a pollen grain
Where do gymnosperm seeds develop?
Gymnosperms do not produce spore, they produce pollen and seeds. The seeds and pollen are both produced in cones and the seed is "naked", it is not enclosed in an ovary.
What is the seed bearing structure of a gymnosperm called?
The cone of a gymnosperm is the equivalent of the ovary of angiosperms. The seeds in the cone are naked, and receive pollen by wind action from the male equivalent of the stamen. In season, you'll often find dustings of sulphur-yellow pine pollen on the surface of water puddles.The gymno part comes from the Greek and means naked, hence similar words such as gymnast.
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 is the reproductive structure of gymnosperm called?
The reproductive structure of a gymnosperm is the cone. The cone produces pollen or sperm cells that will later on fertilize a female plants eggs or anthers
Which is the reproductive event in conifers where pollen grains from male cones are transferred to female cones called?
pollination
What is tentpole in gymnosperm?
Extension of the female gametophyte towards the pollen chamber .for example in Ginkgo biloba
What is spore of gymnosperm?
pollen

What can anthers produce?
The anther produces pollen grains which would be transferred to other plant's stigma which will receive the pollen grains when an insect fly pass it then the pollen grains will be stuck on its wings.
What is a flower's sperm?
A flower's sperm is contained within the pollen grains. These pollen grains are produced in the male reproductive organs of the flower, called the stamens. When the pollen grains are transferred to the female reproductive organs of another flower, they can fertilize the ovules and lead to seed development.
What do you call the separate parent plants involved in the pollination process?
Male and female parents. The pollen is transferred from male to the female parent.
Sperm contained in pollen grains are primarily transferred to an egg by?
Pollen is carried on the stamen of the male flower and has to be deposited on the stigma of a female flower to fertilise it.
