Practice Other Topics from Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants
The topic briefs on sexual reproduction in flowering plants. It discusses the structure of a flower with the aid of a labelled diagram. It further briefs on androecium and gynoecium.
This topic describes the structure and events that occur in the pre-fertilisation stage. It explains microsporogenesis and megasporogenesis in detail. Then, it describes pollination, its types and agents. It also provides brief account of artificial hybridisation.
This topic explains the structure of anther and male gametophyte. We will learn their significant role in reproduction with the aid of diagrams. It also briefs on the development of anther and gametophyte and formation of microspores.
In this topic, we will study the structure of ovule and female gametophyte. It discusses the various stages in the embryo sac with the aid of diagrams. It also highlights the significant role of the ovule in reproduction.
This topic briefs on pollination and agents of pollination. It explains the advantages and disadvantages of autogamy, geitonogamy and xenogamy. It also briefs on outbreeding devices in angiosperm plants which facilitate cross-pollination.
This topic explains artificial hybridization and its significance. It briefs on the events of pollen-pistil interaction, which includes mechanism of recognition, germination of pollen, growth of pollen tube and entry of male gametes into the ovule.
In this topic, we will focus on the events of fertilization. It also explains the role of male and female gametophyte in reproduction with the aid of diagrams.
This topic explains the events and the process of post fertilisation. It describes the events after double fertilization. We will also study the development of endosperm and embryo with the aid of diagrams.
In this topic, we will study the development and maturation of seeds and fruit. It discusses the significance of seed formation and the categorisation of types of seeds. It also explains in detail the structure of a seed.
This topic discusses the method of reproduction and incompatibility in plants. We will study the dependency of seed based on geographical area. The significance of seed dispersal is also described here.
