Chapter 30, Problem 5A
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
In flower, during the development of a flower bud, the meiosis is seen in a single diploid megaspore mother cell in the ovule. The three out of four haploid megaspore produced are soon disappearing and remaining one show mitotic division.

- During double fertilization, one sperm will unite with the egg, forming a zygote. As mentioned in the lecture, a generative cell divides to form two sperm. How is the second sperm used during the process of double fertilization? 00 00 It fertilizes the flower by landing directly on the stigma, which is the sticky surface found above a flower's style and ovary. This depends on the type of plant. Land plants will allocate the sperm that is not united with the egg to the formation of different tissues through mitosis and cytokinesis. It forms a triploid cell by fusing with polar nuclei. This cell then divides and develops endosperm tissue. Since it was not the sperm to fuse with the polar nuclei, the sperm cell will degenerate.arrow_forwardIdentify the part of the flower based on the function. a.) Male reproductive part b.) Makes the pollen (male sex cells) c.) Holds up the anther d.) Female reproductive part e.) Top part of the carpel with sticky surface to trap pollen f.) Joins the stigma and the ovary g.)
