Learning Objectives

Students will be able to:

• Explain the stages of the Angiosperm life cycle (seed, germination, plant, flower, fruit).
• Identify the three essential internal and external conditions (water, warmth, oxygen) needed for successful germination.
• Describe the specific roles of the anther and the pistil in the processes of pollination and fertilization.
• Analyze how fruit color acts as a mechanism for attracting animals to aid in seed dispersal.
• Define core plant biology vocabulary, including dormancy, embryo, ovules, and reproductive cycle.
