DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Seed plants have special structures on them where male and female cells join together through a process called fertilisation. After fertilisation, a tiny plant called an embryo is formed inside a seed. The seed protects the embryo and stores food for it. The parent plant disperses or releases the seed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Jamun, banyan, apple, coconut and neem are some of the plants that reproduce by means of seeds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pollen reaches the new flower and travels to the ovary where it fertilises egg cells (ovules) to make seeds. This is fertilisation. The seeds are scattered by animals or the wind. This process is called dispersal.

Detailed explanation-4: -Flowering plants reproduce sexually through a process called pollination. Flowers contain male sex organs called stamens and female sex organs called pistils.

Detailed explanation-5: -seed, the characteristic reproductive body of both angiosperms (flowering plants) and gymnosperms (e.g., conifers, cycads, and ginkgos).
