Seed Pods

How our plant changed

In class, we learned about pollination for our science unit about plants. My group’s plant changed a lot since we pollinated it. How you might ask! Well, we pollinated it, so, the pistil made seeds, so the flowers that made the seeds die, because there is no use for it.  So the seeds grew up, and the life cycle of a flower restarts. If you still don’t understand this, then read this. Pollinating is when wind, water, or animals, such as a bee, carry pollen from the stamen of one flower to another flower. When the animal lands on the flower, it always leaves enough pollen on the pistil (female part of a flower) to make seeds.

Adjectives for my group’s plant

The color of our plant is a deep green. The weird thing is, the leaves are dying. There all crumbly and stuff. It’s either because we didn’t water it enough, or it’s dying because it’s making new leaves. But some of them are nice and healthy. Our plant doesn’t have buds, but like 5 weeks ago, it did have some buds. By some, I mean a lot. Again , we don’t have flowers because it died to make new flowers. The tallest pod in our quad is in cell 3. I think the pod has 3 seeds.

What will happen next

What I think will happen next, is we will pollinate again, and the new flowers will make new seeds and the life cycle will continue.
