Flower Dissection Lab Sheet

Student Name: Class :.......................................
Objectives: To prepare students for their study of pollination and fertlisation

by understanding the purpose of flowers and to identify flower parts.
Materials
Needed:
 A flower
 Hand lens

Seed germination
Zara’s group planted some seeds in pots of soil to germinate. They put their pots in a warm
place and watered them every day.
They counted the number of seeds that had germinated every day for six days.
These are their results.
