Calotropis is dispersed by wind (anemochory). In calotropis, a tuft of hair, called plume or coma develops as a crown of seeds.

Clemantis is dispersed by wind (anemochory). In clemantis, the style becomes feathery.

Coconut is dispersed by water (hydrochory). In coconut, a fibrous mesocarp is observed which encloses air, makes it buoyant and enables it to float.

During the process of cross-pollination (allogamy) in a flowering plant, the pollen grains are transferred from the anthers of one flower to the stigma of another flower.

Hogweed is dispersed by animals (zoochory). Sticky, glandular hairs are observed in hogweed.

Lotus is dispersed by water (hydrochory). In lotus, a spongy thalamus is observed with fruitlets embedded in it.

A bean takes in water through a small opening called the micropyle.

Insects visit flowers in the search of sweet nectar.

A seed is called an ovule before it undergoes fertilization.

Poppy is dispersed by wind (anemochory).

The fleshy base of a flower to which the different floral parts are attached is called the receptacle. It forms the top of the flower-stalk. It is also known as the thalamus.

During the process of self-pollination (autogamy) in a flowering plant, the pollen grains are transferred from the anthers of a flower to the stigma of the same flower.

A rhizome is observed in Solomon's Seal.

Germination tests are conducted by scientists to study the average number of seeds in every hundred that are likely to germinate.

The conditions required for seeds to germinate are oxygen, warmth and water (moisture).

'Heartwood' is the hard wood in the center of a tree trunk.

After the processes of pollination and fertilization in a flowering plant, fruits begin to form.

A seed which has been kept for several years will not germinate.

The growth of a pollen tube enables the process of fertilization to take place. The pollen tube grows from a pollen grain. It moves down the style to fuse with an ovule.
