Life Cycle of a Flowering Plant
The life of a flowering plant has a cycle like pattern. Flowers come from seeds, and they create seeds too. Each different part of a plant has a unique purpose.
These are the main parts of a flower.
Flowering plants go through the following life cycle.
How seeds are made
1. Pollen is carried by insects or blown by the wind from one flower to another. This process is called pollination.
2. Pollen reaches the carpel of the new flower, where it fertilizes egg cells in the ovary to make seeds. This process is called fertilization.
3. The seeds are scattered by animals or the wind. This process is called dispersal. Some of the seeds will grow into new plants.
