Petals: Petals The petals attract pollinating insects with their bright colour and attractive scent.

Now the ovules will develop into seeds.

Slide8: these attract
insects where the pollen is made pollen sticks to this where the seeds grow These protect the flower before it opens Write the correct words in the boxes: stamens, stigma, petals, ovary, sepals
Slide9: Write the correct words in the boxes: stamen, stigma, petals, ovary, ovules, pollen, sepals, anther. The male part of the flower This is where pollen is made Insects carry this from flower to flower These attract insects This is the female part of the flower, which receives the pollen These become seeds after fertilization This is where the seeds will grow These protect the flower before it opens
Slide10: these attract
insects where the pollen is made pollen sticks to this where the seeds grow These protect the flower before it opens Write the correct words in the boxes:
