Flower Worksheet: Diagram Word List

Plants reproduce sexually through their flowers. Flowers produce male sex cells called pollen in the anther and female sex cells called ovules in the ovary. Pollen grains contain the male cells and must be transferred to the stigma of the pistil. There, a pollen tube grows down to the ovary where the pollen cell contents join with the ovules to form seeds inside the ovary. When conditions are right, the seed will germinate and sprout into a new plant.
