Seeds require heat, air and water in order to germinate. As they grow, photosynthesis occurs which creates food for them. Flowers attract insects that help in their reproduction process by using its vibrant petals as bait for reproduction. Male parts are known as stamens; each contains a long filament with an anthers producing pollen grains….
Butterfly wings captivate many young students, and this kindergarten butterfly life cycle lesson can serve as an effective means of teaching children about growth and transformation. Introduce the topic with a KWL chart featuring posters depicting each stage of butterfly development – egg, caterpillar, pupa, and adult. Read aloud Velma Gratch and the Way Cool…
Mars may present an immense challenge for microorganisms living here on Earth; yet billions of years ago it may have had temperate conditions capable of supporting life. Scientists have made important discoveries through spacecraft missions and by studying rocks from Mars that have fallen to Earth, suggesting it once supported life. Recent evidence points towards…
Once a product reaches this stage it becomes established in the market and competitors start offering lower prices or added features. A butterfly sheds its skin four to five times, known as instars. Furthermore, its body also creates imaginal disks which eventually develop into its wings. Caterpillar The caterpillar is the second stage of butterfly…
Butterflies begin their lives as eggs that hatch, then progress into larval stages that last a short while; during this stage they eat leaves. Once inside, the caterpillar will form a chrysalis for up to one week before emerging and hanging with wings down, pumping hemolymph into their wings to strengthen them. Eggs Female butterflies…
Frogs typically lay their eggs in placid water among vegetation, where the eggs are covered in a jelly-like substance to keep them moist and protect them. Once a tadpole hatches, it resembles more closely that of a fish than of a frog and features gills to enable underwater breathing and to facilitate feeding on plants…
Butterfly life cycles begin with an egg. Once hatching occurs, this produces caterpillars (plural of larva). A larva lives and feeds throughout its day. As it develops, its skin sheds to allow more space for its expanding body. This process is known as “molting”. Egg A butterfly’s life begins as an egg. Female butterflies may…
Reproduction is the foundation of all flower life cycles, occurring when male reproductive cells from one plant join with female reproductive cells from another to create pollination. At this stage, flowers produce small grains of pollen which are dispersed via wind or animals such as insects to other flowers of their species and eventually fertilise….
Flowers don’t just add beauty; they play an integral part of a plant’s life cycle! Flower petals act as pollen carriers to spread pollen grains onto nearby flowers where it fertilizes their ovules, helping plants reproduce. Seeds require water, oxygen, and warmth in order to germinate successfully. Once they’ve begun sprouting they form hard outer…
