1. An empress tree is a flowering plant. This tree’s flowers have blue and
violet markings. What is the main role of the colored markings on the
flowers?
to protect the plant from the sun
to produce pollen for reproduction
to attract insects to carry pollen
to disperse seeds to other parts of the local environment

3) Complete using words from the box:
germination – maturity – fertilization – pollination - spore
1- --------------------------- is a cell that can grow into a new plant when the
conditions are right.
2- ------------------------- is when plant grows to its full size.
3-------------------------is the process of pollen moving from a male part to a
female part.
4-When a seed sprouts and the embryo starts to grow, it is the
------------------------------------ step.
5- ------------------------ is the process of a sperm (pollen) and an egg joining
together.
4) :Match :
1-A cell that can grow into a new plant. (
2-Attract insects for pollination. (
)
a- sexual reproduction.
)
3-Flowers and cones are responsible For. (
b- anther.
)
4-Part of the flower that makes the egg cells.(
5-Part of the flower that makes the sperm cell. (
c- Petals.
)
d- Spores.
) e- pistil.
5) Put (√) or (x) :
3
1- The common thing between flowers and cones is that they both produce
spores. (
)
2- For a spore to grow onto a new plant, it needs sunlight, air and water
(
)
3- Air helps in spread of seeds.(
)
4- Pollination is joining of a sperm cell with an egg cell. (
)
