Question
Write the various steps involved in the sexual reproduction in plants.

Answer

The sexual reproduction in plants takes place in the following steps:
  1. The male organ of flower called ‘stamen’ makes the male gametes of the flower. These male gametes are present in pollen grains.
  2. The female organ of a flower called ‘carpel’ makes the female gametes present in the ovules and are called ova or egg.
  3. The male gametes present in the pollen grains fertilises the female gametes or egg cells present in the ovules.
  4. The fertilised egg cells grow within ovules and become seeds.
  5. The seeds produce new plants on germination.

There were lot of organisms A in the crop fields in an area. These organisms used to feed on organisms B also present in the crop fields but which damaged the standing crops. One day some people arrived in the fields and killed all the organisms A so that they could remove their C for making fancy items which were in great demand. Due to large scale killing of A, the population of B increased too much damaging all the crops in the area and causing a famine-like situation. Apart from A, there is another organism D which can also kill and eat B. Name A, B, C and D.
