5 Animal Kingdom
Identify the correct set of mammals that live wholly in water.
1) Whales,seals,dolphins
2) Seals,whales,shark
3) Hippocampus, whale, scoliodon

A pollen grain does not normally germinate until
In plant sexual reproduction, pollination (the transfer of pollen to the stigma of the pistil) occurs before the pollen grain germinates (grows) down to the ovary where the ovule (egg cell) is found. Then when the pollen grain reaches the ovule, fertilization occurs.
8 Anatomy of Flowering Plants
Collenchyma's is found in stems and petioles of : 1. Hydrophytes 2. Herbaceous climbers 3. Xerophytes 4. Lianas
Collenchyma is found in epidermis of dicot stem and petioles and abundant in climbing stems. Collenchyma occurs as hypodermis (below the epidermis) and also above the petiole in dicots providing tensile strength.
