13. It’s been a minute since we’ve watched videos… MY B dooods How fruits are made http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwCpQflmQG4 Pollination is really pretty http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHkq1edcbk4 BrainPop http://www.brainpop.com/science/cellularlifeandgenetics/pollination/

16. How does pollination happen? • The anther (the male reproductive part) creates pollen. • The pollen must transfer to the stigma (a female reproductive part) • Pollinators can cary the pollen from one flower to the other • The pollen tubes grow down the style (the stalk of the pistil) into the ovary • The pollen tubes reach the ovules in the ovary. • The ovules are the female gamete: eggs • When the ovules are fertilized, they grow into seeds • In some flowers, the ovary turns into fruits to protect the seeds and help spread the seeds.

17. Review: In 3 sentences, write out how pollination works. If you are not sure, guess!

18. What’s the difference between the pistil and the stamen

19. The pistil is the female part and the stamen is the male part. The pistil has the ovule, the flower egg, and is the place where the seed forms. The stamen has the pollen, the flower sperm

21. Stigma TPS • Why do you think the stigma is longer and above the anthers?

22. The pistil is longer than the stamen • The pistil is longer than the stamen so the pistil can catch pollen out of the air. Also the pistil can curl down and grab pollen off its own anthers if it needs.

24. Answer

25. Which one do you think is better? Self-pollination or cross-pollination • Self pollination is when the anther of the same flower gives pollen to its own pistil • Cross pollination is when the anther of one flower gives pollen to the pistil of a different flower.

26. Cross pollination is better! • Every organism gets half their genes from their mother and the other half from their father. • Sometimes a gene is bad. Having 2 different sets of genes means your likely to have 1 good version of every gene. • If a mother has a bad gene for blood clotting, the father’s good gene could hide it. If the mother was the only one giving genes to the offspring, then the offspring would have the bad gene.

27. POSTERS • NEED TO REVIEW WHO HAS TURNED THEIRS IN!

28. Which flower is the male? How can you tell?Imperfect or Diocieous

29. Which flower is the male? How can you tell?Imperfect or Diocieous

31. What would happen to a plant population if a disease wiped out all insects in its habitat?

32. Why do you think this flower is spotted on the inside?

33. What would happen to a plant population if a disease wiped out all insects in its habitat? • Many plants would die, especially those that need insects to pollinate them. The plants that survived would evolve, through natural selection to find new ways to pollinate. They would adapt, developing new features that help them pollinate with wind, birds, or other pollinators.
