FRUITS AND SEEDS IN
PLANT

FERTILISATION
Male gamete fuse with female gamete is

called fertilisation.

Stigma
stimulate
pollen to
germinate

Pollen tube
grows out from
the pollen

Nucleus inside
the pollen
divides

1 male gamete
fuses with the
ovum
(fertilisation)

The tube enter

the ovule

Pollen tube
grows down
towards the
ovary

Produce 2
male gametes

Zygote is
formed

Ovule develop
into seed
Ovary
becomes fruit

Pollen land on
the surface of
stigma
