Best Answer

The flowers attract pollinators (e.g. bees, hummingbirds).

Only after a pollinator has fertilized the female ovary will seeds begin developing, the flower drops off, and the ovary transforms into fruit.

Just as in animals there are stages in the process of evolution that has culminated in the evolution of man.

In the plants also there are similar stages in the process of evolution and the process has culminated in the formation of flowering plants.The major stages are as follows:-

1)The Thallophytes- The plant body has no roots stems and leaves. Reproduction by different means;but never by means of flowers. Examples are all Algae and all fungi.

2) The Bryophytes - The plant body may show root like , stem like and leaf like organs but not always and these are not true roots,stem, and leaves.No flowers are produced.Examlpes are Mosses , Liverworts and their relatives.

3) The Peridophytes - For the first time the true roots, stem and the leaves appear in this group as they are the pioneer land plants.Sill no flowers are produced.Ex.- Ferns, Lycopods and the Horse tails.

4) The Spermatophytes - The roots , stem and the leaves are well established in this group.These are the true FLOWERING & SEED BEARING PLANTS ( Spermos = seed, don't confuse with sperm which is the male gamete.)They have two major sub groups viz. Gymnosperms and Angiosperms

A) Gymnosperms- ( Gymnos = naked; Spermos = seed.).

i)They do produce flowers; but they are not at all atractive and for a lay man they do not appear like flowers.

ii) They do produce seeds but they are not enclosed in side a fruit as there is no frut formation ( Due to absence of an ovary).So Gymnosperms = Naked seeds. Examples = The Conifers like Pinus and the members of red wood forests; The X'Mas Tree. Cycas of the deserts and many more.

B) Angiosperms - This is the most highly evolved group.In these flowering plants the seeds are ALWAYS enclosed inside a fruit (Angion = A vessel or a container; Spermos = Seed.).The fruit and seed formation is on a regular basis, as an ovary is always present. Most of the time flowers are attractive to man as well as insects and birds! No examples are needed.

Plants grow faster in summer as the heat provided by the sun is more than in any seasons and sunlight is the most important factor for photosynthesis in plants.

Plants are naturally primed to respond to various impetus, therefore some will respond to light and heat differently from others.

Beacause winters cold weather makes the soil not have lots of nutriants but in summer the warm sunlight and heat keeps the plant growing and there are more nuriants in the soil.
