Question

How does fertilization occur in flowering plant

Answer 1

Fertilization takes places in the ovary of the female flower.When a carrying agent like wind/water/animals carry pollen grains from male anthers to the female flower part i.e. stigma, a pollen tube forms and the pollen grain travels down the style and finally reaches the ovary where it fertilizes an ovule.The ovule in ...

HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER

Fertilization is the process by which a new individual of the same kind is developed (or born). It differs from pollination, where the pollen is transferred from a male part (anther) to a female part (stigma).

Fertilization takes place in a flower when ripe pollen (from the same type of flower, typically carried by wind or insects) from the anther is transferred to the stigma, threadlike tubes that are generated from the pollen grain. This pollen tube enters the ovule (of the ovary) and releases sperm cells, which fuse with the eggs inside the ovule, leading to fertilization. Once the ovule receives the entire content of the pollen tube, it fertilizes and develops into a seed (encasing the embryo and endosperm in a seed coat).

Note that in flowering plants double fertilization takes place.
