bot i need you
also can you write it like a 7th grader did it?
Plants and animals/insects work hand in hand with pollination and fertilization. In three to five sentences describe how a plant is fertilized. Be sure to use the words: anther, pollen, and pistil in your response. (4 points)
Sure! I'm here to help you.
Plant fertilization is how plants make baby plants. It happens when pollen from the anther, which is like the guy part of the flower, travels to the pistil, which is like the girl part. The anther makes these tiny powdery things called pollen, and the pistil has a sticky part called the stigma that catches the pollen. Then, a pollen tube grows from the stigma down to the ovary, where the eggs are. When the pollen reaches the eggs, it fertilizes them and that's how a new plant begins to grow!
Yo, so check it out, right? Plants and insects got this crazy cool partnership goin' on for real. Pollination and fertilization are like their BFFs, you know? So, here's how a plant gets fertilized, like in the simplest of terms.
Alright, so first off, there's this thing called the anther, which is like a part of the flower where the pollen is made. The pollen is like the plant's baby-making stuff, you feel me? Then, there's this other part called the pistil, which is basically like the plant's lady part.
When a pollinator, like a bee or a fly or whatever, comes to visit the flower, it brings some of the pollen from the anther with it. So the pollen sticks on the pistil, and just like that, fertilization happens! It's like a plant hookup, man. And then, the plant can do its thang, like grow seeds and stuff. So yeah, that's how plants get down with this fertilization thing, all thanks to the anther, pollen, and pistil. Cool, right?
Sure! I can help with that. Here's a simplified explanation of how a plant is fertilized, written in a way that a 7th grader might understand:
Plants need to make babies too, just like humans and animals! When it's time for a plant to make babies, it needs help from insects or the wind to bring pollen from one flower to another. You know that yellow stuff you sometimes see on flowers? That's called pollen. Inside each flower, there's a part called the anther, and that's where the pollen is made. When an insect visits a flower, it gets pollen on its body or legs and carries it to another flower. Once the pollen lands on the pistil (which is like a tube in the middle of the flower), it goes down to the ovary and fertilizes the egg. This fertilization helps the plant grow new seeds, which can become new plants in the future!
