Science referral websites.

Hi Class,
Just go into these websites and read during the weekends.

Have a pleasant weekend,
Mrs. Paul

(4) Plant Biology: Germination and Growth

During germination, the embryo of the seed starts to grow. Roots form first, followed by the pushing up
of leaves.

(5) Plant Biology: Making Eggs

The life cycle of flowering plants begins with the production of eggs; when fertilized, these eggs will
develop into seeds that will eventually become a new plant.

(6) Plant Biology: Making Pollen

Anther cells produce four haploid microspores, which divide to eventually form the haploid pollen cells.

(7) Plant Biology: Pollination and Fertilization

Insects usually assist in the fertilization of flowering plants. Fertilization occurs when one sperm nucleus
fuses with the egg nucleus. Other sperms form the endosperm by fusing with egg cells.
