Question

What is the difference between the life cycle of a non-flowering plant that uses spores to reproduce and the non-flowering plant that uses seeds to reproduce ? Please help, Hw question.

Answer 1

A non-flowering plant produces spores which are then fertilized and grow into mature plants, reporting the cycle, then dying. Flowering plants will either have a stamen, making it a female flower, or have pollen bundles. The pollen is distributed my wind or other means, then lands on the female blossom's stamen. The pollen then creates a pollen tube. Through the stamen, fertilizing the ovula, which will mature into seed-bearing fruits. The seeds dispersed from the fruit will then grow into a new plant and repeat the cycle.
