All about flowers
• Flowers are vital to the reproduction of flowering plants.
• Flowers are made up of several different parts.
• Each part is important in it’s own special way.

A little information about Pollination
• In order to produce a new plant many flowering plants need to be pollinated.
• Let’s learn the parts of the flower – then we can find out more about pollination.

About pollination
![Page 8: All about flowers Learn the parts of a flower and all about pollination](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551a54c755034643688b4700/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Petal• The petal attracts
insects to visit the flower.
• The colours that we see in the flower petals are quite different to those seen by insects, with their specialised eyes.

Stigma
• The stigma receives the pollen from visiting insects.
Click here to go back to ‘The Parts of a Flower’
• It is one of the female parts of a flower. The others are the style and the ovary.

Style
• The style leads down to ovary.
Click here to go back to ‘The Parts of a Flower’
style• It is another of the
female parts of a flower.

Ovary
Click here to go back to ‘The Parts of a Flower’
• The ovary is located at the base of the flower
• The three female parts of a flower are, together, called the pistil or the carpel.
• The female parts of a flower make the seeds.

Filament
Click here to go back to ‘The Parts of a Flower’
• The filament is one of the male parts of a flower.
• The other male part is called the anther.
• Together they are called the stamen.

Anther
Click here to go back to ‘The Parts of a Flower’
• The anther is one of the male parts of a flower.
• The anther and filament make the pollen. Together, they are called the stamen.
• The shape and size of the anther will attract the correct insects.

Sepal
• The sepal is usually green.
• It is the part of the flower that protects the bud.
• It is not part of the pollination process.

Pollination• In order to produce a new plant many
flowering plants need to be pollinated.
•This means that pollen, produced by the stamen, needs to reach the stigma.
![Page 16: All about flowers Learn the parts of a flower and all about pollination](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551a54c755034643688b4700/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Many plants cannot be pollinated by their own pollen.
•The pollen must land on another plant of the same type.
•This is called cross pollination.
•Let’s find out some more!
![Page 17: All about flowers Learn the parts of a flower and all about pollination](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551a54c755034643688b4700/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
•Insects pollinate many flowering plants.
•The flower attracts the insect by using it’s colours and smells.
The insect arrives at a flower to collect the nectar, which is a sweet liquid.
While the insect is collecting the nectar, the male parts of the flower brush it with pollen.
![Page 18: All about flowers Learn the parts of a flower and all about pollination](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551a54c755034643688b4700/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
•The insect then travels to another flower where the pollen brushes off onto the female parts of that flower.
•If the pollen is from the same type of flower then it pollinates the visited flower.
![Page 19: All about flowers Learn the parts of a flower and all about pollination](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551a54c755034643688b4700/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
•The pollen from the first flower sticks to the sticky stigma.•Part of the pollen called the male cell travels down the style. •The male cell then enters the ovary.•Within the ovary the male cell joins with the ovule. •The plant has then been fertilised.•After fertilisation the seeds start to grow. •The ovary of the flower becomes the fruit containing the seeds.
![Page 20: All about flowers Learn the parts of a flower and all about pollination](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062318/551a54c755034643688b4700/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The male cell travels down the tube
Pollen grains land on the stigma
The male cell fertilises the ovule
Now the seeds start to develop and grow.
