Get ready to explore the magic of plant life in this exciting KS2 Science quiz all about plant reproduction! We'll dive into the world of flowers, pollination, seed dispersal, and germination.
Reproduction is like nature's way of making new generations. Plants, just like other living things, need to make seeds to grow new plants. Flowers, besides being pretty, have a super important job in making seeds. Insects help by pollinating the flowers, and then seeds are inside the fruits. Seeds get scattered away, some grow into new plants - it's like a plant adventure!
Do you know the parts of flowers or how seeds travel? Test your plant knowledge with this fun KS2 Science Plant Reproduction quiz!

The anther is part of the stamen
|
The 'men' in 'stamen' is a helpful reminder that the stamen is a male part of the flower. The stigma, style and ovary together form the carpel, which is female
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||
The stigma is the tip of the carpel
|
Plants pollinated by the wind usually have less colourful flowers
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||
The scent and the colour advertise the flower to insects. The insects go there to get nectar but carry pollen from flower to flower as they do
|
Cells travel from the pollen to the egg and fertilise it
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||
Fruits contain the seeds which will be able to grow into new plants
|
'Dispersed' means spread over as wide an area as possible
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||
Insects visit the flower during pollination, not dispersal
|
Seeds need warmth, water and a safe place to germinate
