Across
- 2. – The young, developing plant inside a seed.
- 3. – The transfer of pollen from the male part (anther) to the female part (stigma) of a flower.
- 6. – A method where a stem is bent to the ground and covered with soil to grow roots while still attached to the parent plant.
- 10. Reproduction – Reproduction without the fusion of gametes, producing offspring genetically identical to the parent.
- 13. Culture – Growing plants from small tissue pieces in a controlled, sterile environment.
- 15. – A piece of stem, root, or leaf used to grow a new plant.
- 17. – Transfer of pollen between flowers of different plants, increasing genetic diversity.
- 19. – Joining parts of two plants so they grow as one plant.
- 21. Reproduction – Reproduction involving the fusion of male and female gametes, producing genetically unique offspring.
- 22. – Transfer of pollen within the same flower or plant.
Down
- 1. – The process by which a seed develops into a new plant.
- 4. – The female reproductive structure that develops into a seed after fertilization.
- 5. – The fusion of male and female gametes to form a zygote.
- 7. Propagation – A type of asexual reproduction where new plants grow from roots, stems, or leaves.
- 8. Propagation Terms
- 9. – Male reproductive cells in plants, carried to the stigma for fertilization.
- 11. Propagation Terms
- 12. – A fertilized ovule containing an embryo capable of growing into a new plant.
- 14. – A form of grafting where a bud is inserted onto a rootstock to grow a new plant.
- 16. – A point on a stem where leaves or buds grow, often used for propagation.
- 18. – Splitting a plant into parts, each capable of growing into a new plant.
- 20. – A horizontal stem that grows along the ground and forms new plants at nodes.
