  • Pollination is the transfer of pollen to the:

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“Leaf palisade”,”Stigma”,”Root cap”,”Xylem vessel”],”correct”:1,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Pollen must land on a receptive stigma before a pollen tube can grow.”}

  • Fertilisation in flowering plants occurs when:

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“A petal falls”,”A sperm nucleus fuses with the egg in the ovule”,”A leaf photosynthesises”,”A seed is eaten”],”correct”:1,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”The pollen tube delivers sperm to the embryo sac.”}

  • A seed typically contains:

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“An embryo and stored food, protected by a seed coat”,”Only pollen”,”Only a flower bud”,”Only a fruit wall”],”correct”:0,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”The embryo is the young sporophyte; endosperm or cotyledons supply food.”}

  • Germination is:

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“Resumption of growth of the embryo into a seedling”,”Death of the sporophyte”,”Formation of pollen only”,”Leaf fall only”],”correct”:0,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Water, oxygen and suitable temperature usually trigger germination.”}

  • Self-pollination means pollen travels:

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“Only into root hairs”,”From one species to another kingdom”,”From anther to stigma of the same flower or same plant”,”Only by ocean currents”],”correct”:2,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Cross-pollination is between different plants and increases genetic mixing.”}

  • Insect-pollinated flowers are often:

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“Dull green with huge hanging catkins only”,”Colourful or scented with nectar”,”Completely underground”,”Without pollen”],”correct”:1,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Animals are attracted by colour, scent and rewards.”}

  • Wind-pollinated flowers typically produce:

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“Heavy sticky pollen in small amounts”,”Only fruits before flowers”,”Light pollen in large amounts and exposed stamens”,”No pollen”],”correct”:2,”type”:”mcq”,”explain”:”Grasses and many trees rely on copious airborne pollen.”}

  • True or false: A fruit develops after fertilisation from the ovary.

    {“lesson_id”:0,”category_id”:64,”topic”:”Life Cycle Of A Flowering Plant”,”choices”:[“True”,”False”],”correct”:0,”type”:”true_false”,”explain”:”Seeds develop from ovules; the ovary wall becomes the fruit.”}
