pollination

• types of pollination?

  Self-pollination & cross-pollination
• self-pollination is when the male gamete fertilises the female gamete within the same flower or on another part of the plant.
• cross-pollination is when the male gamete from one flower fertilizes the female gamete from another flower, usually from different plants.
• sepals - surround and protect the flower in its bud stage.
• petals - surround the reproductive of the flower and are usually brightly coloured to attract insects for pollination
• animal pollinated - pollination is done by animals (bees, birds, insects)
• wind- pollinated - wind carries pollen from anther to stigma
• water- pollinated - water transports pollen from anther to stigma
