Part 2 Blog - Pollination, it's types & Agents involved

In this blog we will cover the following learning Outcomes.
Students will be able to :
1. Define Pollination.
2. Explain types of Pollination involved in plants.
3. Elaborate the adaptations of plants which are pollinated by different agents.




Kindly make the notes of this topic in your register. I'll be sharing in note links, self drawn diagrams & YouTube video on your official watsapp group for better understanding.


POLLINATION

It is the transfer of pollen grain from anther to the stigma of a pistil.

This transfer is brought by abiotic agents like wind & water  or by biotic agents like animals .

TYPES  OF POLLINATION.

There are two types of pollination :
 1. Self pollination
2. Cross pollination.

       SELF POLLINATION
Can occur in two types :
a)  Autogamy
b) Geitonogamy








CROSS POLLINATION
 a) Occurs through Xenogamy










There are two types of flowers produced in plants
Chasmogamous & Cleistogamous.





I will be sharing YouTube video on watsapp group.



 Kindly write your notes  in your register.
Homework task for you all is to write the  adaptation found in flowers for different agents of pollinator.

That's all for today. See you tomorrow.

Part 1 Blog -- Revision Test

Good morning dear students. First thing please mark your attendance by writing your name on the comment section. So today our learning outcomes will be : 1) To revise what ever is taught in the last two classes. 2) To reflect on topic learning by the students & also a way to help teacher access the loopholes to conquer a better way of reaching out to you all, in this new teaching learning experience. Today's Class will be divided into two blogs, the first blog will be the Revision Test & the second blog will  deal with Pollination & it's type. Time : 30 mins        TEST 1                     M. M :10 Answer the following questions according to the marks :- 1.What is pollenkit?                                     [ 1]  2. Give the ploidy of the following in Megasporogenesis :- a...

Post Fertilization: Structure & Events

Image
Good morning Dear Students, Welcome to our new Academic Session 2020-2021 officially. Please mark your attendance for today. Today we will cover the following learning outcomes :- Students will be able to : 1) Draw & Explain the formation of Endosperm, Embryo & Seed. 2) Understand & Elaborate the process of Apomixis & Polyembryony. Kindly write your notes in your  register & ask your doubts in the blog itself. POST FERTILIZATION : STRUCTURE & EVENTS This includes :- i. Development of Endosperm. ii. Development of Embryo. iii. Maturation of Ovules into seed & Ovary into fruits. DEVELOPMENT OF ENDOSPERM The PEN divides repeatedly to form a TRIPLOID Endosperm. The cells contains starch, oils & proteins. Endosperm is a source of nutrition for Embryo. Types of Endosperm Formation a) Nuclear Type b) Cellular Type  , & c) Helobial Type. NUCLEAR TYPE First division & usually several of the following division are u...

Pollen pistil interactions & Double fertilization.

Image
Good morning class. Today we will achieve the following learning outcomes:- Students will be able to - 1) Define various outbreeding devices used by plants to prevent self pollination. 2) Elaborate about pollen pistil compatibility interactions. 3) Explain double fertilization process in plants. 4) Analyse the new plant breeding technique for Artificial Hybridisation. I will be sharing with you all at the end of explanation the YouTube video link to have better clarity of the process. Kindly write these notes in your register.          OUTBREEDING DEVICES. We know most of the plants undergoes self pollination. This could result in INBREEDING DEPRESSION in a plant species , i. e  plant decrease it pollen grain count & it may result in poor productivity of seeds. So to overcome these inbreeding depression, plants by default has developed certain outbreeding devices. Some of these devices are :- A. DICHOGAMY -  In this process plant...
