reproduction . Pollination takes place when the pollen grains transports to the stigma. After pollination comes then Fertilization which is the fusion of male sex cells and the female sex cells.

What's needed?

Sexual Reproduction in Plants

Day 1
Getting the process of germination started

Day 2
Testa split ,the radicle grew down into
the soil along with some small lateral root .

Day 3
Plumule , started to
emerge above the soil , the testa slipped off , along with the cotyledon above the soil .

Day 4
The cotyledon open ,
inside was leaves which closed up .

Day 5
No changes were
made , soil was sprinkled .

Day 6

Stem grew taller, along with cotyledon at the side of the stem and leaves opened.

Day 7

A new bud of leaves opened ,

first leaves grew bigger .

3 Days later
New batch of leaves
popped up , it rained and the soil was moist and the leaves had a lush green colour . Leaves grew larger along with new leaves .

8 Days Later
The plant developed
with more leaves. The soil was moist after the rain fell.

5 Days later
The flower blossomed
on the plant . The soil had a dark rich colour . The plant stretched out with new leaves and yellow and white flower.

7 Days later
A tiny green fruit
appeared on the plant. At the tip of the fruit was a flower.

9 Days Later
The previous tiny fruit
enlarged into a large green pea.

Day 1
Potato was placed

into a hole in the soil. Then covered up with soil. Getting the process of germination started .

What is asexual reproduction?

Plants such as Irish

potato reproduce without gamete [ special reproductive cells.] This is called asexual reproduction. Irish potato produce swollen underground stems call tubers. Each tuber produce a new plant.

3 Days Later
Potato starting to grow.
New tubers are coming out.

Tubers grow from top of

potato slowly. Sprouts develop from eyes.

Other way to allow potato tubers to spring out.

Potatoes are so easy

to grow that they can even grow on kitchen counters.

5 Days Later
The shoot started to
emerge from the soil. The leaves were lush green and it was big.

2 Days Later
2 days later I used

some small strips of straws after mulching the soil. I used I the straws to give the plant nutrients to the damp soil.

A Week Later
I took out the straws
and damp the soil. The plant developed along with some new leaves. It was bigger than the previous page.
