the pollen grains after landing on the stigma germinate to send out pollen tubes through which the male gametes reach near the egg cell of embryo sac in the ovule to fuse with. this fusion of male and female gametes (egg cell) is called fertilization.

When does fertilization happen in plants?

When male and female gametes unite to form the zygote, it is called fertilization. In flowering plants it is followed by pollination and pollen germination.


What prepares plants for fertilization?

Plants prepare for fertilization by producing specialized reproductive structures such as flowers, which contain the male and female reproductive organs necessary for fertilization to occur. These structures facilitate the transfer of pollen (containing male gametes) to the ovules (containing female gametes) for fertilization to take place. Additionally, plants rely on pollinators such as insects, birds, or wind to transport pollen between flowers for successful fertilization.


What group of plants depend on animal vectors for fertilization?

A group of plants that depend on animal vectors for fertilization is called zoophytes. These plants rely on animals, such as insects, birds, or bats, to assist in the transfer of pollen from the male reproductive organs to the female reproductive organs, thus enabling fertilization. Examples include many flowering plants and orchids.


How is fertilization in flowering plants different from fertilization in other plant groups?

Fertilization in flowering plants is achieved by transferring the male gamete through pollen tube whereas in nonflowering plants the male male gametes are motile and transferred in aqueous medium.

How does fertilization in a seed plants differ from fertilization in seedless plants?

Seed plants produce seeds to overcome the adverse environmental conditions whereas seedless plants overcome the adverse environmental conditions by vegetative parts such as tubers, gemma cups or even spores. Since formation of seed involves genetic advance seed formation for reproduction is more successful in nature.


Vitro fertilization in plants takes place where?

Technically it doesn't; in vitro with respect to plants means basically plants that are tissue cultured in a laboratory. Obviously this process does not take place in the plant.in Vitro fertilization in plants does not take place. It is rather in vivo fertilization taking place inside the embryo sac of an ovule.


What does fertilization not require in most seed plants?

Fertilization in most seed plants does not require swimming sperm, as they are transported within pollen grains and delivered directly to the plant ovule for fertilization to occur. This eliminates the need for water as a medium for fertilization, unlike in non-seed plants or aquatic plants where swimming sperm are necessary to reach the egg.
