Why are pollination and fertilization both crucial in the reproductive cycle of a flower?

Because pollination brings pollen grains to the stigma where they germinate to produce a pollen tube and male gametes traveling through this tube reach the embryo sac to perform gametic union with egg nucleus and secondary nucleus to form embryo & endosperm respectively. thus a new generation originates

What is the difference between pollonation and fertilization?
pollination means:when pollen lands on a flower stigma. fertilization means:when a male cell joins with a flower cell.
What function do petals on a plant perform?
The flower is the reproductive unit of a plant. The petals in a flower help in reproduction in one way. The petals are generally brightly colored and attract insects and bees for pollination. after pollination, fertilization occurs which results in the formation of zygote and eventually a fruit with seeds, i.e, reproduction occurs.
What makes a flower open?
Flowers open and close in response to reproductive syndromes. An open flower allows it to reproduce, by means of pollination.
How would you describe the process of pollination and fertilizer in a flowering plant?
The process of pollination begins the reproductive cycle of all flowering plants. Which flower part(s) is/are involved in pollination? anther and stigma
Why is the stigma a different height than the anthers?
The anthers and stigma occur at different heights to prevent self fertilization and to encourage cross fertilization.
What is the function of the female flower reproductive organs?
The female reproductive organ (Gynoecium) in the flowers is responsible to produce seeds from ovules after pollination, fertilization and embryogenesis.
What is A process in which pollen from one plant to pollinate the eggs in the flower?
I think that there are two processes: Pollination and Fertilization Pollination is when the pollen grains meet on the stigma (female reproductive organ) of another flower. Fertilization is when the pollen actually meets the egg in the ovary. (Sperm joins with egg)
What is the process in which pollen from one plant is used to pollinate the eggs in the flower of a different plant?
I think that there are two processes: Pollination and Fertilization Pollination is when the pollen grains meet on the stigma (female reproductive organ) of another flower. Fertilization is when the pollen actually meets the egg in the ovary. (Sperm joins with egg)
What is the difference between pollination and fertilization in angiosperm?
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.
What is the process by which animals wind and rain transfer pollen to the pistil of a flower?
Pollination is the process of how pollen is transferred by insects, wind, or rain to the pistol of a flower. This is essential to the fertilization of a plant.
What is the difference between pollonation and fertilization?
pollination means:when pollen lands on a flower stigma. fertilization means:when a male cell joins with a flower cell.
What is the job of the anthor on the flower?
Anther provides pollen grains for pollination & fertilization
What is the function of angiosperm flowers?
The flowers of the angiosperm are reproductive organsoften containing both male and female reproductive parts.

What is the main Reproductive function of flower Petals?
It attract insects and insects help in pollination
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. :)
Where is the flower's pollination stored before pollination?
Before pollination, the pollen grains are stored in the anthers (male part) of the plant. During pollination, an insect (such as a bee) flies to the flower for nectar and some pollen from the anthers rubs off on it. When the bee travels to another flower, the pollen sticks to the stigma (female part). After pollination, fertilization can begin. Hope this helps.
