21. Answers cont.. The bees love nectar so encourage them to come back to the flower and pollinate it and other flowers. The bees love nectar so encourage them to come back to the flower and pollinate it and other flowers. The stigma needs to be up high so it can be pollinated and the ovary needs to be somewhere less exposed so that it can be protected.

23. Advantages, disadvantages + niche AdvantagesDisadvantagesOther / Niche Gametes separate.Targeted pollination allowing high number of gametes produced to fertilise. High energy adaptations. Bees cant fly in bad weather (extinction?). Blooms seasonally, in sheltered environments. Pollen sticky and spikey. Smell and UV, Wind and pollinators required. Dominant sporophyte life cycle Not dependant on gametophyte for survival Nourishing zygoteZygote is protected by the plant. Seed made to provide energy for young zygote. Pollen tube required for fertilisation. Energy required to make seed. Can withstand harsh environments as seed can provide nutrients. Vascular tissueSporophyte can survive dry periods Can survive in variety of environments SeedsCan withstand harsh conditions before germinating when more favourable. Lots of energy needed to make seeds. Can grow in variety of environments
