Directions For Questions Directions: Read the passage and answer the five questions that follow: Sexual reproduction in flowering plants involves intricate processes such as pollination, fertilization, and seed formation. Pollination is crucial as it allows for the transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the flower. Once pollination occurs, the pollen grain germinates on the stigma, and a pollen tube grows down the style toward the ovary. The sperm cells travel through this tube to fertilize the ovules. Following fertilization, the ovule develops into a seed, and the surrounding ovary matures into a fruit. This ensures the continuation of the plant species, as the seed can grow into a new plant. What does the ovule develop into after fertilization?
