Apomixis is a form of asexual reproduction where seeds are produced without fertilization, allowing for the offspring to be genetically identical to the parent.

The main advantage of sexual reproduction is genetic diversity, which can enhance adaptability and survival.

The primary advantage of sexual reproduction is genetic diversity, which enhances adaptability and survival in changing environments.

Fragmentation is a common method of asexual reproduction in plants where a part of the plant breaks off and develops into a new individual.

The seed coat serves to protect the embryo from physical damage and desiccation during dormancy.

Pollination is the process of transferring pollen from the male anther to the female stigma, which is essential for fertilization.

The alternation of generations is a life cycle characteristic of plants where they alternate between a haploid gametophyte and a diploid sporophyte.

Asexual reproduction can involve runners or stolons, which are horizontal stems that produce new plants at their nodes.

Monocotyledonous plants typically have parallel leaf venation, distinguishing them from dicots which usually have net-like venation.

Wind-pollinated plants typically produce large amounts of lightweight pollen to increase the chances of successful pollination.

Cross-pollination is a method of sexual reproduction, not vegetative propagation, which involves the asexual reproduction of plants.

The ovary of the flower develops into a fruit after fertilization, enclosing the seeds.

Monoecious plants have both male and female reproductive structures on the same individual.
