  • 2. 

    Stamen produced sticky powder called _____.

    • Pollen

    • Style

    • Pistil

    • Ovule

    Correct Answer
    A. Pollen
    Explanation
    Stamen is the male reproductive organ of a flower, which produces pollen. Pollen is a fine, powdery substance that contains the male gametes of a plant. It is usually sticky in nature and is responsible for fertilizing the female reproductive organs of the flower. Therefore, the correct answer is pollen.

  • 3. 

    Male part of a flower.

    • Stamen

    • Stigma

    • Pollen

    • Pistil

    Correct Answer
    A. Stamen
    Explanation
    The male part of a flower is called the stamen. It is responsible for producing and releasing pollen, which is necessary for the fertilization of the flower. The stamen consists of two main parts, the filament and the anther. The filament is a long, thin structure that supports the anther, where the pollen is produced. The stamen plays a crucial role in the reproductive process of flowering plants by producing and dispersing pollen.

    Which of the following is NOT a common agent of pollination?

    • Wind 

    • Insects 

    • Birds 

    • Reptiles

    Correct Answer
    A. Reptiles
    Explanation
    Pollination is crucial for plant reproduction, involving the transfer of pollen for fertilization. Wind, insects, and birds are primary agents in this process. Wind carries pollen, while insects and birds are attracted to flowers for nectar and inadvertently transport pollen. Reptiles, however, lack the necessary adaptations or behaviors to effectively participate in pollination.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    The top of the pistil is called _____.

    • Pollen

    • Pistil

    • Stigma

    • Style

    Correct Answer
    A. Stigma
    Explanation
    The top of the pistil is called the stigma. The stigma is a sticky surface that receives pollen during pollination. It plays a crucial role in the reproduction of flowering plants by capturing and holding onto pollen grains, allowing for fertilization to occur.
