Fruit and Seeds

Fruits are an important and distinguishing feature of plants (angiosperms). But what exactly qualifies as a fruit? Do you consider a tomato to be a fruit or a vegetable? What causes it to form in a plant? Let’s take a look at the various parts, types, and applications of a fruit.The fruits are the result […]

Formation of Roots

The plants that we see now are the culmination of billions of years of evolutionary development. As of today, plants cover over 30 percent of the entire land area, with their productivity accounting for half of all agricultural output (generation of biomass). Plants play a wide variety of roles in the ecosystem. They provide food,

Microsporangia Consist of

Microsporangia are sporangia that produce microspores, which germinate and produce male gametophytes. All vascular plants with heterosporic life cycles, such as seed plants, spike mosses, and the water fern genus Azolla, have microsporangia. Microsporangia create microsporocytes, the microspore mother cells, in gymnosperm and angiosperm anthers, which subsequently produce four microspores through the meiosis process. The

Microsporangia and Microsporogenesis

Recommended: NEET Rank Predictor 2024 Latest: NEET 2024 Paper Analysis Microsporangia are sporangia that produce microspores and create male gametophytes when germination occurs. The microsporangium is an important part of the gametophyte, the reproductive organ of plants, where pollen grains are formed. All vascular plants with heterosporic life cycles, such as seed plants, spike mosses, and the

Formation and use of pollen grains

Pollen is a mass of microspores produced by a seed plant that appears as fine dust when it is harvested. Each pollen grain is a minute body with a variety of shapes and structures that develops in the male structures of seed-bearing plants and is transferred to the female structures by a variety of mechanisms

MICROSPORANGIA

Microsporangium is a flowering plant that plays an important role in the development and growth of pollen grains during the pre-fertilization stages of plants, particularly in angiosperms (flowering plants). They aid in the process of pollination and ultimately, the fertilisation of flowers and other plant life. When plants reproduce sexually, the bodies of the plants

Methods of breaking seed dormancy

Introduction Dormancy occurs when there is a lack of germination in seeds or tubers despite the presence of the necessary conditions (temperature, humidity, oxygen, and light). Dormancy is caused by hard seed coat impermeability or a lack of supply and activity of enzymes required for germination (internal dormancy).  Dormancy is a significant factor that limits

Flowers Inflorescence

Inflorescences is the arrangement of flowers on the floral axis  and is the most visually appealing part of the entire plant. As we all know, the reproductive system of a plant is represented by the flower.  It is the reproductive part of the plant, and it is responsible for ensuring the survival of a species

Flowers adapted to pollination

Flowers require pollination. Pollination is the process by which pollen grains are transferred from the anther of a stamen to the stigma of a carpel. There are a few flowers that can self-pollinate, but they are limited to inbreeding. Most species rely on some kind of pollination vector to pollinate themselves. The vector can be

Flowering Plants

Introduction Anatomy is the branch of Biology which deals with the study of internal structure of a living being.Plant anatomy is the study of a plant’s interior structure. Cells are the basic structural and functional unit of living organisms. Cells are organized into tissues, then the tissues get organized into organs. The anatomy of different
