Experiments
-
Comparing the flower structure of different angiosperms
Study the detailed anatomy of flowers by dissection and the general form by studying images of flowers. Deduce mechanisms of pollination. -
Observing the growth of pollen tubes
Observe the germination of pollen grains from a range of flowers in sucrose solutions with differing concentrations of mineral salts medium.
