Year 11 The Life Cycle of Flowering Plants

Not many links collected yet, I'm afraid.


Photosynthesis and respiration - Short review of the processes and balance between them, including factors that affect photosynthesis. You can try a Test Bite at the end to check your understanding.

Flower structure - A simple interactive animation allowing you to dissect a flower and find out more about the function of each part, then practise labelling the flower. 

Pollination and fertilisation - Short animation showing the distinction between the two.
 
Food chains – producers - Stick to pages 2, 3 and 4 for “Plants and photosynthesis”; “Getting carbon dioxide, light and water” (includes leaf structures involved) and “Respiration in plants” , The rest doesn’t apply.

Plants - Photosynthesis and factors that affect it, as well as a bit on minerals. A Test Bite at the end.

Primary and secondary growth - Introduction, prequiz, animation and postquiz.

Secondary growth - Animation showing how secondary growth adds a layer of xylem cells to stem to make it wider. Quite easy to follow.

It’s a green world - Includes: Photosynthesis; Osmosis, Transport in plants (not part of your topic, but relates to what xylem and phloem do); Minerals in plants. Tests at the end of each section.
