| When an insect sits on the flower of a plant then somene particles A present in the top of little stalks in the flower attach to its body hair. When this insect now sits on the flower of another similar plant, then particles A attached to the hair of insect are put on the top of a flask-shaped organ at the centre of flower. The particle A grows a long tube B from the top of flask-shaped organ through which C moves down and reaches the bottom part of flask-shaped organ. Here C fuses with the nucleus of D contained in structure E. The fusion of C and D forms a new cell F which grows and develops into a seed of the plant. |
- What are particles A? What is the process of transferring A from one flower to another flower of similar plant by the insect known as?
- What is the name of tube B?
- What is C which moves down through the tube B?
- Name D and E.
- What is F?
