  • Reproduction
    It is a Biological process by which an organism reproduces an offspring that is biologically similar to the organism
  • Asexual reproduction
    It refers to the type of reproduction in which only a single organism gives rise to a new individual
  • Sexual Reproduction
    It is a type of reproduction that involves the production of an offspring by the fusion of male and female gametes
  • Natural Vegetative propagation
    This occurs plants grow and develop naturally without any human interference
  • Artificial Vegetative propagation
    This is a type of vegetative reproduction carried out by humans on the fields and laboratories
  • Cutting
    In this, a part of a plant specifically a stem or leaf is cut and planted in the soil
  • Grafting
    In this, the cutting from some other plant is attached to the stem of plant rooted in the ground
  • Layering
    In this, the stem of the plant is bent to the ground and covered with soil
  • Tissue Culture
    In this, The plant cells from different parts of a plant are cultured in the laboratory to develop a new plant
  • Plants that reproduce sexually have sex parts wich we know as flowers
  • Pollen with the female gamete, also known as ovules
  • Flower
    is the reproductive part of a plant and where sexual reproduction takes place
  • Pistil/Carpel

  • Stigma
    is the topmost part of a flower
  • Style

  • Ovary

  • Stamen
    the male fertilizing organ of a flower, typically consisting of a pollen containing anther and a filament
  • Anther
    is a sac-like structure that produces and stores pollen
  • Filament
    Supports the anther
  • in order to form a zygote, Male gametes in pollen grains have to fuse with the eggs in the ovule
  • Self-Pollination
    A pollination where the pollen transfer takes place between the anther and stigma of the same flower or another flower on the same plant
  • Cross-pollination
    A pollination where the pollen transfer takes ace between the anther and the stigma of different flowers of the same plant or different plants of the same species
