Sexual propagation

Competency C2. Demonstrate plant propagation techniques.
 

Description

Sexual plant propagation encompasses topics and concepts such as pollination, seed production, and planting. Sexual plant propagation produces plants that are genetically different from the two parent plants.  In the area of pollination, discuss different types of pollinators, such as wind, water, insects, animals, and people. A discussion of seeds could cover differences between monocot and dicot seeds, seed dispersal methods, methods of breaking dormancy, the planting and germination differences between various types of seeds, and seedling emergence and care.
