Question

sexual reproduction: flowering plants
drag & drop the pictures into the correct order, then complete the descriptions to show how sexual reproduction occurs in flowering plants that use pollinators

Explanation:

Flowering plants use pollinators like bees for sexual reproduction. The general process involves a pollinator visiting a flower and picking up pollen from the anthers (male part). Then it moves to another flower and deposits the pollen on the stigma (female part). Fertilization occurs when the pollen grain germinates and a pollen - tube grows down to the ovary to deliver sperm cells to the ovules.

Answer:

Stage 1: A pollinator (like a bee) visits a flower and pollen sticks to its body.
Stage 2: The pollinator moves to another flower.
Stage 3: The pollen is transferred to the stigma of the new flower.
Stage 4: Fertilization occurs as the pollen grain germinates and a pollen - tube grows to deliver sperm to the ovules.
