    The document discusses how flowers are pollinated. It explains the roles and functions of the male and female parts of flowers, including stamens, anthers, carpels, stigmas, ovaries, and how pollen grains are transferred between flowers by insects or wind to fertilize the ovaries and produce seeds.

    How a Flower is Pollinated

    The purpose of all flowers is to


    be pollinated and produce seeds
    What do petals do?
     Partly used to protect
    the male and female
    parts of the plant
     Some plants use wind
    to blow the pollen and
    they have small leaves
     Plants which use
    insects to transfer
    the pollen usually
    have large petals
    which smell and are
    brightly coloured
    What is the male part?
     The male part of
    the flower is
    called the stamen
     It has a long stalk
    called the filament
     At the top of the
    filament is the
    anther
    What is the anther?
     The anther
    produces pollen
    What is the female part?
     Carpels are the
    female parts
     They are made up
    of a stigma, style
    and ovary
    What is the stigma?
     It is at the top of
    the carpel
     It is sticky which
    helps catch pollen
    grains
    What are the ovaries?
     The ovaries are where
    the eggs are made
    How does pollination take
    place?
     Pollen grains brush against the insect, it
    flies to another plant, the grains rub on
    the stigma
     The grain of pollen grows a tube, which
    goes down the style until it reaches the
    ovary
     The male part joins with the female part
    to form a seed. This is called fertilisation.
     After fertilisation the petal drop off
    because they are no longer needed
