After a flower is fertilised, it dies, but its ovary grows into a fruit.

Plant Reproduction

Get ready to explore the magic of plant life in this exciting KS2 Science quiz all about plant reproduction! We'll dive into the world of flowers, pollination, seed dispersal, and germination.

Reproduction is like nature's way of making new generations. Plants, just like other living things, need to make seeds to grow new plants. Flowers, besides being pretty, have a super important job in making seeds. Insects help by pollinating the flowers, and then seeds are inside the fruits. Seeds get scattered away, some grow into new plants - it's like a plant adventure!

Do you know the parts of flowers or how seeds travel? Test your plant knowledge with this fun KS2 Science Plant Reproduction quiz!

Are Quizzes the Key to Children's Success? Find Out
1 .
Some flowers are pollinated by insects. What do other types of flowers use to pollinate them?
Dying
The wind
Fertilisation
Magic
Plants pollinated by the wind usually have less colourful flowers
2 .
Which of these describes fertilisation?
A pollen grain joins with an egg in the flower's ovary
An insect transfers pollen to the stigma
A flower disperses its seeds
The wind blows the pollen grains from the anthers
Cells travel from the pollen to the egg and fertilise it
3 .
After a flower is fertilised, it dies, but its ovary grows into what?
A new flower
A new plant
A fruit
A herb
Fruits contain the seeds which will be able to grow into new plants
4 .
What is germination?
When a flower is pollinated
When a seed begins to grow
When the seeds leave the parent plant
When the pollen meets the egg
Seeds need warmth, water and a safe place to germinate
5 .
How does a flower's scent and bright colour help it to reproduce?
Non-colourful flowers do not produce pollen
Scent and colour attracts people
Scent and colour attracts insects
All of the above
The scent and the colour advertise the flower to insects. The insects go there to get nectar but carry pollen from flower to flower as they do
6 .
Pollen grains are contained in which part of a flower?
The anthers
The styles
The petals
The sepals
The anther is part of the stamen
7 .
Which one of these is not a female part of a flower?
Style
Stigma
Ovary
Stamen
The 'men' in 'stamen' is a helpful reminder that the stamen is a male part of the flower. The stigma, style and ovary together form the carpel, which is female
8 .
Which of these is not a method of seed dispersal?
Animals eat the fruit, expelling the seeds
The wind blows the seeds away
Insects visit the flower
The seed pod explodes, scattering the seeds
Insects visit the flower during pollination, not dispersal
9 .
Seeds cannot stay on the parent plant. What must happen to the seeds in In order for them to grow?
They must be expelled
They must be fertilised
They must be pollinated
They must be dispersed
'Dispersed' means spread over as wide an area as possible
10 .
Pollen must be transferred to which part of the flower for pollination to occur?
Stigma
Petals
Sepals
Stem
The stigma is the tip of the carpel
