All living things need to reproduce in order to pass on their genetic information and keep their species alive. Plants are no exception. In this title, we will study the various methods that plants use to reproduce and create offspring. Plants can reproduce sexually or asexually. Sexual reproduction involves two individuals and the mixing of genetic material from both parents, in order to produce genetically different offspring. Asexual reproduction involves one parent, and the offspring will all be genetically identical to the parent. Both types of reproduction have advantages and disadvantages. We will look at the reasons why plants use these different methods. Sexual reproduction produces seeds. We will examine the different ways that plants disperse, or spread out, their seeds and the conditions needed in order for the seeds to germinate and start to grow.
