INTRODUCTORY TEXT TO THE LESSON
In this video, the students show how their surroundings with various flower species and herbaceous gardens have inspired their studies of flower anatomy and physiology.

They look at the structure of the flower and then the ways in which pollination takes place.

They describe the male and female parts of the flower and how pollination may lead to fusion of them male and female gametes to form embryos - seeds.

They briefly describe seed dispersal and how the plant life cycle perpetuates.
