Angiosperm Reproduction and Biotechnology
Angiosperms produce
flowers
from the
generation for sexual
reproduction.
Flowers exhibit wide
variation
among species.
A plant that has male and female reproductive
structures
on the same individual is
; if those structures are on
separate
plants the species is
.
The transfer of pollen from an

results
in
.
After
pollination,
a pollen
grows down into the
and discharges two sperm, which undergoes
fertilization.
The zygote undergoes mitosis and develops into a
multicellular
, which, together with its food supply and seed coat, make up a
seed.
A fruit develops from the
, protects and aids in the
dispersal
of the enclosed
seeds.
