Stigma
Different methods of seed dispersal
Splitting
Definition
When a fruit bursts open and shoots away from the parent plant
Trigger
The fruit is already ripe
Examples
Balsam,rubber,legume plant
Adaptations
Pod-like structure
Water
Adaptations
Fibrous husk to trap air to stay afloat,Waterproof
Definition
It floats along a river or drifts for a long time at sea
Examples
Coconut,pong pong, lotus
Animals
Adaptations
Hook-like structure,light and feathery,fleshy,juicy,indigestable seeds
Examples
apples,honeydew,watermelon
Definition
1.It gets eaten and the seed is passed out by the animal 2.The fruit hooks onto the animal
Wind
Examples
Shorea,maple,cattail
Definition
They get carried away by the wind
Adaptations
Light build,some are hairy,structures that enable them to easilybe carried away by wind(such as wing-like structure)
The two methods of pollination
Animal
Definition
The pollen is transferred to the stigma by an animal
Wind
Adaptations
Light,feathery anther sticking out of the main plant
Definition
The wind bows the pollen grains to the stigma

Pollination......Seed dispersal
The male reproductive cells (pollen grains) get transferred to the stigma of its own plant/another plant by either animal pollination or wind pollination.
The pollen grains reach the ovary.
The seeds are then dispersed by a variety of different methods
Why do seeds need to be dispersed?
So as to prevent overcrowding.If not,they would have to compete for :sunny:,:potable_water:,mineral salts and space
It then fuses with the female reproductive cells contained in the ovules.
The ovules develop into seeds.
The ovary then turns into a fruit. This process is known as fertilization.
