ReplyDelete#7's answer:
"Pollen grains produce sperm cells that fertilize the eggs within the larger female cones. Pollen is carried from the male cones to the female cones by wind. After fertilization, seeds mature and are released from the female cones. When the conditions are right, the seeds grow into new gymnosperm plants" So, the result of this is gymnosperm

ReplyDeletehay people stop wastin valuable typin space with typos
ReplyDeleteanonymous stop repeating every comment you do. Also you were not last on the fungi study guide and you are not last now.
ReplyDeleteAlso anyone who says the typo police need a life-you get extra points on your test every 5 typos. We got an extra 5 points for this plants test. That could move you from a B to an a-!
Fellow Peers-
ReplyDeleteIt has come to my attention that there are select few who detest the typo police and there ways. But why? All we are doing is helping Mr. Carrison to make the blog a little better. And when the blog is easier to read, it is easier to study, thus, kids receive better grades. So cease your revolt against the Typo Police.
Signed, with dignity,
John Colpoys, Chief of the Gates Typo Police Department
