| where are the male gametes (stamen) of a plant produced? | the male gametes ( stamen) are produced inside the anther |
| where are the female gametes of a plant produced? | the female gametes of a plant are produced in the ovary |
| what is the function of the filament? | the filament holds the anther in the best position to enable it to release its pollen grains |
| what is the function of the sepal? | the sepal protect the flower when it is in a bud stage against insects fungi and frost |
| what is the function of the petal? | the petal is often brightly coloured and scented to attract insects and may produce nectar |
| what are the three parts of the carpel? | the three parts of the carpel are the ovary, style and stigma |
| what are the two parts of the stamen? | the two parts of the stamen are the filament and the anther |
| what are four examples of monocotyledous flowering plants? | four examples of monocot flowers are grasses, wheat, maize and rice |
| what are four examples of dicotyledonous plants? | four examples of dicotyledonous plants are sweet pea, wallflower, primrose and dandelion |
| what are the two types of flowering plants? | monocotyledonous an dicotyledonous plants |

| what is pollination? | pollination is the transfer of pollen from the anther to a ripe stigma |
| what is self pollination? | self pollination is when pollen is carried from the anther to the stigma of a flower of the same plant |
| what is cross pollination? | cross pollination is when pollen is carried from the anthers of one flower to the stigma of a flower on another plant of the same species |
| how do plants prevent self pollination? | plants prevent self pollination by situating the stigma higher than the anthers, some plants are also self sterile, and the ovules mature before the anthers ripen and split open |
| how are plants adapted to insect pollination? | insect pollinated flowers usually have large brightly coloured petals which are scented and often have nectaries, dark lines called honey guides on petals, anthers tend to be small and located inside the flower where insects tend to brush up against them, some plants produce pollen grains that are sticky and smooth or covered with spiky hairs in order to increase the chances of the pollen attaching to the insects |
