develop into the embryo (seed) of a new plant.
INVESTIGATIONS-
• to dissect and mount the sturctures of a simple flower.
• to examine a variety of seeds to discover their mechanisms for dispersal.
EXPLANATIONS-
• Explain the functions of flowers and pollenation.
• Describe the production of seeds in terms of sexual reproduction
• Explain how seed dispersal mechanisms contribute to a plants survival.
