 REPRODUCTION is an essential
characteristic of organisms to perpetuate
their kind. Plants and animals can
reproduce either sexually or asexually. The

asexual reproduction and sexual

WHAT IS reproduction.

PLANT REPRODUCTION
For plants, every structure in the body
and physiological processes exists
for only one reason and it is to maximize
its chances to produce offspring.
Reproduction is what’s unconsciously
goal of every organisms do.
Asexual Reproduction in
Plants
Another method used for Many of the plants on earth are produced through asexual means.
plants to grow is by means This type of plants is advantageous when they are adapted to a
particular environment and the genetic variation among plant
of artificial plant
members is not a necessity. One strategy of plants reproducing
propagation with a little asexually is through vegetative reproduction (a type of
help from the human. It is reproduction in plants from its vegetative parts or specialized
reproductive structures). The new plant that results from this type
very useful because plants of reproduction is identical to its parent plant. The structure in
can grow faster than plants plants that reproduce vegetatively came mostly from modified
grown from the seeds. stems, such as runners, tubers, corm and rhizomes
 Sexual The parent plants have male and female sex cells, called
gametes. The genetic material from the male and female

gametes combines to produce offspring.

Angiosperms or flowering plants are widely distributed in

the world. Their life cycle centers on reproducing sexually

through their flower. In what part of the flower do you
think sexual reproduction occur? Sexual reproduction
occurs in the sexual organ of the flower.

ROSES MANGO HIBISCUS

a plant that is a member of the
genus Rosa, which consists of
some 100 species of perennial
shrubs in the rose family.
a tropical usually large ovoid or
oblong fruit with a firm
yellowish-red skin, hard central
stone, and juicy aromatic pulp.
a genus of flowering plants in the mallow
family, Malvaceae. The genus is quite
large, comprising several hundred
species that are native to warm
temperate, subtropical and tropical
regions throughout the world.

FLOWER
PARTS OF
A FLOWER
Let us examine a typical
flower to see its parts and
their role in plant
reproduction.
 MALE PARTS:

ANTHER
makes tiny grains
called “pollen”, which contains
male sex cells

FILAMENT
holds up the
anther.

STAMEN
male reproductive part of a
flower.
 FEMALE PARTS:

STIGMA
top part of the
carpel with sticky surface to
trap the pollen

STYLE
joins the stigma and
the ovary

CARPEL
female OVARY
contains the female
reproductive part sex cells called ovules.
