Reproduction in Flowering Plants
The Parts of a Flower
Most flowers have
four parts:
 sepals
 petals
 stamens
 Pistil
The parts of a flower
Sepals protect the
bud until it opens.
Leaves that cover
the plant
 Petals attract
insects.
 Stamens make pollen.
 Pistil grow into fruits
which contain the
seeds.

Stamen (male)
Anther: pollen
grains grow in the
anther.
 Filament: Holds up
the anther
 When the grains
are fully grown, the
anther splits open.

Pistil (female)
Stigma
 Style
 Carpel (ovary)
 Ovules (eggs)
 1 in each plant. Located

Pollination
Flowering plants use
the wind, insects,
bats, birds and
mammals to
transfer pollen.
 Pollen moves from
the stamen part of
the flower to the
stigma part of the
flower.

Pollination
A flower is
pollinated when a
pollen grain lands on
its stigma.
 Each carpel grows
into a fruit which
contains the seeds.

Seed dispersal
Seeds are dispersed in
many different ways:
 Wind
 Explosion(Eject)
 Water
 Animals(birds, dogs…)
Wind pollination
Some flowers, such as
grasses, do not have
brightly coloured
petals and nectar to
attract insects.
 They do have stamens
and carpels.
 These flowers are
pollinated by the wind.

How animals help seed
dispersal
Some seeds are
hidden in the
ground as a winter
store.
 Some fruits have
hooks on them and
cling to fur or
clothes.

How birds help seed
dispersal

Birds and animals
eat the fruits and
excrete the seeds
away from the
parent plant.
