  Hello to all visitors!    

"Are you looking for reference sources for the topic Development of Seed and Fruit? If yes, this is the right place for you!"

 

We are 5 sisters from another mothers on a mission to help you all to delve into this topic. All of us are second year students from Sultan Idris Education University (UPSI), majoring in Biology. First of all, let us introduce ourselves to all of you!

  "Our main focus for this blog is university and high school Biology  students but we are more than happy to help if students at other levels  visit this blog to find further references regarding this topic."  

In this blog, we share brief notes on the topic of Development of Seed and Fruit. Don't worry, the notes we provided are simple and concise, suitable for leisure reading. If you want to test your understanding on this topic, we have also prepared interesting games for you. If you are a teacher or a lecturer, you can invite your students to play together! The games we provided are also suitable to be played during lecture or during Teaching and Learning (TnL) process in class. We have barcodes too, so your students can simply scan the barcode through a slide show during lecture or TnL to join the game. 

As simple as that? Yes, as simple as that!

In total, there are 4 sections in this blog:

1. The development of seed notes. 
2. The development of seed game.
3. The development of fruit notes.
4. The development of fruit game. 

 

We really hope that all visitors can learn something from this blog. Happy reading and happy learning everyone!

The Development of Seed Notes

 

  Development of Seed Notes    

"Seed development is a pivotal process in the life cycle of angiosperms. It is initiated by the double fertilization which leads to the development of the embryo and the endosperm"

For further understanding, you might need a suitable video to view. So, here are the video that covered this topic that might help you figure out the process. Remember ! Do not memorize.

The Development of Seed Games

What is a seed?

The seed is the embryonic stage of the plant life cycle. Most seeds consist of three parts: embryo, endosperm, and seed coat. Do you know? Seeds serve several functions for the plants that produce them. Key among these functions are nourishment of the embryo, dispersal to a new location, and dormancy during unfavourable conditions.

What do you know about the seed? To enhance your understanding, let's play a pairs games about seed's development. To enter the games, press the text below.

You can invite your friend to join by scanning the barcode below:

Preview of the games:

• There are five interactive games available at the games site, which are: Multiple Choice, Noughts & Crosses, Crosswords, Match-up, and Memory.
• You can choose one of them according to the form of game you like.

 

How to play:

1. Click on the link given.
2. Choose and click on one of the five games that you would like to play.
3. These are the rules for each of the games:

• Multiple Choice : Answer correctly before time runs out to earn points.
• Noughts & Crosses : A fun twist on tic-tac-toe for one to two players: you can lose a turn by incorrectly matching up terms.
• Crosswords : A one players are provided with hint-giving letter choices.
• Match-up : A one player games that challenges students to match terms against the clock.
• Memory : Basically what you would expect. But sample activity gave a sample great idea for creating number patterns problems.

The Development of Fruit Notes

 

THE DEVELOPMENT OF FRUIT

Assalammualaikum and Good Day Everyone 😊

Fruit is a mature, ripened ovary, along with the contents of the ovary. The ovary is the ovule-bearing reproductive structure in the plant flower. Under the botanical definition of fruit, many things that are commonly called vegetables are in fact fruits (for example, eggplant, green beans, okra and, yes, tomatoes

Initiation of fruit development is defined as the time of ovule fertilization and, in A. thaliana, marks the morphological transformation of the ovary to form a silique with two separate locules.

The Development of Fruit Games

Fruits are ripened ovaries of plants. Many of us enjoy a refreshing slice of watermelon on a hot day, or have gone apple picking in the fall. Fruits are a major part of many people's diet and have been for millions of years. But what are fruits, really? And where do they come from? Today, we're going to look at the answers to these questions. 

Below I have provided the link games about the development of fruits to test your understanding about this topic. Let’s play the games everyone!
