    1. The document describes the parts of a flowering plant and their functions, including the sepal, petal, filament, anther, stigma, style, and ovary. 2. It lists five differences between wind-pollinated and insect-pollinated flowers, such as color, production of nectar, amount of pollen produced, and structure of anthers and stigmas. 3. A diagram shows a type of seed dispersal by wind, and explains how the seed structures are adapted for this through being small, light, and having wing-like extensions to be carried by the wind.

    REPRODUCTION IN FLOWERING PLANTS

    1. Label the diagram of the flower given below.


    (7)

    Petal

    Stigma
    Anther
    Pollen Tube
    Filament

    Sepal Ovary

    2. Complete the following table with the functions of the different parts of a
    flowering plant.

    Part of the flower Function


    Sepal
    Protects the unopened flower bud

    Petal
    To attract insects

    Filament
    It holds up the anther

    Anther
    This produces pollen

    Stigma
    It catches pollen grains

    Style
    This holds up the stigma

    Ovary
    It contains ovules
    (7)

    3. List FIVE differences between wind-pollinated and insect-pollinated flowers.

    1……Insect pollinated flowers are bright in colour unlike Wind pollinated


    flowers are which are dull in colour………………………...…………………….

    2……Insect pollinated flowers produce nectar unlike Wind pollinated flowers


    which do not have nectaries to produce nectar at all……………….……………

    3……Insect pollinated flowers produce less pollen than Wind pollinated


    flowers………………………………………………………………………………....

    4……Insect pollinated flowers have anthers and stigmas that are firmly held
    inside the flower unlike Wind pollinated flowers have anthers that are long and
    loosely attached………………………………………………………. …..…………

    5……Insect pollinated flowers haves a stigma that is sticky so that pollen can
    stick to it unlike Wind pollinated flowers have a stigma that hangs outside the
    flower to make it easier to catch pollen blown by the wind……….………………
    (5)

    4. The diagram below shows a particular type of seed dispersal method.

    a) What method of seed dispersal is shown?

    ……………………………………Wind……………………………………… (1)

    b) Explain how the structures in the seed shown above are adapted for this
    type of dispersal.
    …They are small and light and have extensions that act as wings allowing
    wind to carry them to new places for them to
    grow…………………………………………………………………… (2)
    c) Write down two other methods of seed dispersal.

    ……………………………………Water…………………………………………

    …&…………………………………Self Dispersal………………………… (2)

    d) Explain why some fruits are brightly-coloured and taste sweet.
