Seed Germination------->Development of the plant body-------> Maturation and flowering------->Gamete production and pollination-------> Fertilization-------> Embryo development-----> Fruits and seed maturation------> Seed dispersal and germination

The first stage of flowering plant will start with seed germination. Germination will happen when condition are suitable such as there is a presence of water, moisture, oxygen etc.

The plant matures and form its reproductive organs: stamens producing pollens and pistils producing ovules. Pollination will bring the pollen grain ( male anther) of a flower to the female stigma. Pollination can be accomplished by the wind, or by animals pollinators that carry pollen from one flower to another.

If pollination is successful and fertilization takes place, a zygote is formed. It will then develop into an embryo that is contained within a seed.

1- Fertilization is fundamental to sexual life cycles and is often seen as the start of development. Of the roughly quarter-billion sperm released in a typical primate ejaculate, only a few hundred have any significant chance of actually fertilizing an egg. It is also the case that all eggs are unlikely to be fertilized. In sea urchins, not all sperm will end up fertilizing an egg and not all eggs will be fertilized. Explain why this is the case in...
