"Pollination is the transfer of the pollen grain from the anther to the stigma, where the pollen grain germinates, and becomes the mature male gametophyte." Source= Inquiry into Life Lab Manual.

Therefore, the answer may be the mature male gametophyte...OR that it replaces a males sperm, depending on what your teacher is looking for. Hope this helps

Does seedless plants have pollen?

Yes, seedless plants produce pollen. Pollen is the male reproductive structure responsible for transferring sperm cells to female reproductive structures in plants for fertilization. Seedless plants, such as ferns and mosses, rely on spores for reproduction, but they still produce pollen for this purpose.


What are the mobile sexual reproductive part of all seedless plants?

The mobile sexual reproductive parts of seedless plants are sperm cells. These sperm cells are typically flagellated, allowing them to swim through water to reach the egg for fertilization. Seedless plants rely on water for the transfer of sperm to the egg, unlike seed plants which have pollen to transport sperm to the egg.


How are the Gametophytes of seed plant different from the gametophytes of seedless plants?

Seed plants:produce seeds Seedless plants:don't produce seeds


Why is it called a pollen cone?

It is called a pollen cone because it is a structure on certain plants that produces and releases pollen, the male reproductive cells. The cone shape of this structure helps to protect and efficiently disperse the pollen.


What is the major difference between the gametophytes of a seedlees plant and a seed plant?

Seed plants are flowering plants so they product pollen that land on the female ovule and then produce a pollen tube that releases 2 sperm to fertilize the ovum and the polar nuclei and these form into a seed. In other seedless plants like algae and mosses the plants produce spores which are similar to pollen and many different versions of female gametes. To be honest seedless plants have many different life cycles that are much more in depth so the fertilization process and the maturation of the plants are very different.

What replaces swimming sperm in the life cycle of seed plants?

pollen


Why do seedless plants require water for reproduction?

Seedless plants require the liquid water because the sperm has to swim to reach the egg. This is in contrast to most seed plants, that fertilize using pollen transferred by wind or insects.

Inside what structure do the sperm of seed plants form?

The sperm of seed plants form inside the pollen tube, a structure that develops from the pollen grain. The pollen tube grows towards the ovule to deliver the sperm cells for fertilization.

Is pollen vascular or nonvascular or both?

Pollen is nonvascular, as it is a structure produced by seed plants for reproduction and does not contain any conducting tissues like xylem or phloem found in vascular plants.
