Tracing a Flower From Pollination to Seed Dispersal, Worked Capstone
Captions available
The idea
This capstone traces one angiosperm flower's reproductive arc from pollen landing on the stigma through double fertilization to a dispersed, dormant seed.
Where people slip
Skipping from pollination directly to a finished seed glosses over the actual sequence — fertilization, seed-coat development, and dormancy are separate stages, each with its own point of possible failure, not one automatic outcome once a pollen grain lands.
