    Life cycles of flowering plants


    Pollination, fruits and seeds
    We are going to…
    Draw and label flowers
    Identity type of pollination and sort of flowers into groups
    according to how they are pollinated
    Say how flowering plants are adapted to attract pollinations.
    Say how pollination is part of a flowering plant’s life cycle
    Use knowledge and understanding to make predictions
    about pollination.
    Getting started…..
    Pollination

    Pollination is the movement of pollen from the stamen


    of a flower to the stigma of the same kind of flower.

    There are two type of flower


    1.Pollination by insect
    2.Pollination by wind
    Pollination by insects

    • Insects are called pollinators.


    • Certain insects are attracted to certain types of flowers.
    Eg. Butterflies like to visit flowers that are big and have
    lots of nectar, a sweet liquid.

    Flowers pollinated by insects are adapted to attract


    pollinators in the following ways.
     They are white or have brightly coloured petals.
     They have a scent.
     They produce nectar.
     They have marks on the petals to guide the insects to
    the nectar inside the flower.

    Nectar Insect
    Pollination by wind

     In wind pollination, the pollen blows in the wind from


    the anthers to the stigmas of other flowers.
     Grass , rice and corn flowers are wind pollinated.

    Flowers pollinated by wind have these adaptations:

    • The petals are small and not brightly coloured.


    • They do not have a scent or nectar.
    • They make lots of smooth, light pollen grains that blow
    away easily.
    Pollination by wind
    Why must flowers be pollinated?

     Plants reproduce by making seeds. The pollen and


    eggs join to make seeds in a process called fertilisation.
     Pollination brings pollen from the male anther to the
    female stigma. This allows the eggs to be fertilised and
    seeds to form.
     Fertilisation happens in the flower’s ovary.
     Fertilisation only happens if the pollen and eggs are
    from the same kind of flower.
     After the egg is fertilised, the petals and stamens of the
    flower die.
     The ovary grows and become the fruit.
     Seed form inside the fruit.
     The fruit protects seed and helps to spread them.
