Life Cycle
plant
flowering plants have 3 stages life cycle
seed
roots grow downwards first to absorb water &
mineral salts for the plant
shoots grow upwards next to get sunlight and air for the plant
it will germinate into a young plant
germination requires
water
oxygen
warmth
young plant
leaves will grow and start to make food for plant
grow into an adult plant
adult plant
adult flowering plants will bear flowers
go through pollination and fertilisation and develop into an adult plant with fruits
the plant will then disperse the seeds
compare life cycle's similarity and difference
1.no. of stages
2.resemblance of adult
animal
3 stages
egg
female adult lay many eggs to increase chances of its young reach adulthood
nymph
eggs hatch into young called nymph
the nymph resembles its adult
it moults a few times as it grows
adult
the female will meet and fuses with the male and reproduce
egg
(human)the fertilised egg will develop into a baby in the mother's womb
(others) the adult lays the eggs (hard shell of the egg protects the young growing inside)
young
(human) the female will give birth to baby
(others) the young will hatch from the egg
young resembles the adult
adult
be able to reproduce
4 stages
egg
the adult will lay its egg
larva
the egg will hatch into the larva
eat a lot at this stage
as it grows, it moults a few times
pupa
the larva will develop into a pupa
the pupa does not feed
the pupa will develop into an adult inside the case
adult
it will break open the case and emerge as an adult once it is fully develop
the female will then fuse with the male and reproduce
eg: butterfly,housefly,mealworm beetle, mosquito
is irreversible
it ensures the continuity of living things
