WEEK 6

Hi, we meet again.

For week 6, basically we covered pollination and development of plant embryo.
Basically pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to a female stigma. Pollination is divided into two which are self-pollination and cross-pollination.


A Venn diagram which showed similarities and differences of self-pollination and cross-pollination.


Pollination was closely related to double fertilization process. Below is the link to a youtube video which will help you to understand about double fertilization.

Other than that, we also learned about the differences of zygotic embryogenesis and somatic embryogenesis. Also we did a Venn diagram on the sexual and asexual reproduction of plants.

As we finished learning Topic 6, my lecturer moved onto the next topic which was about plant growth regulators.

We only learned 5 of them which are auxin, cytokinin, Gibberellins, abscassic acid, and ethylene. To understand about this topic better, below is the link to a youtube video.

A screenshot of my own notes regarding plant growth regulators so that I can understand and memorize it easily.



Basically, that's all for week 6. Goodbye.
