उत्तर
Process of fertilization in humans:
- Formation of zygote by union of sperm and ovum is called as fertilization.
- Fertilization is internal in humans. Semen is ejaculated in vagina during copulation.
- Sperms, in the numbers of few millions, start their journey by the route of vagina – uterus – oviduct.
- One of those few million sperms fertilizes the only ovum present in the oviduct.
Process of fertilization in plants:
- Stigma becomes sticky during pollination.
- The pollen grain germinates over the stigma and gives rise to pollen tube.
- Pollen tube carries two male gametes which are released near egg cell present in the embryo sac.
- One male gamete fuses with a female gamete giving rise to zygote. The second male gamete fuses with two polar nuclei giving rise to endosperm. This is called as double fertilization.
