how does a plant reproduces?
480132
Basically, plants reproduce like most other organisms... sexually.  The main difference is that their young (seeds-to-be; ovules?) grow either inside a receptacle, or fruit, (angiosperms) or without a receptacle (gymnosperms).

Flower\nIf both sexes are in the same flower (and plant) then it is a HERMAPHRODITE\nIf not, then they will be female and male plants (of the same species)

A corm is a short, thick, vertical underground stem that survives from one season to the next in a dormant state. The second season it produces one or more aerial stems and also one or more new corms. The new corms store food produced by the growing plant and then go through the next dormant period to produce their own plants and corms the following season. The “bulbs' of gladiolus are actually corms.\n\nPart 2 of your question\n\nVegetative reproduction is a type of asexual reproduction found in plants also called vegetative propagation or vegetative multiplication. \nThe problem of sex\n\nIn sexual reproduction, a new organism is formed by the fusion of two gametes. It is to be contrasted with asexual reproduction, in which females produce offspring without any male contribution; the female's gametes develop directly into female offspring. \n\n• In sexual reproduction, the sex cells - eggs and sperm or pollen - are produced by a reduction division and the gametic fusion restores the original chromosome complement. \n\n• In asexual reproduction, there is either no reduction division (apomixis) or the product cells of one individual's reduction division fuse together again (automixis). Asexual reproduction is rare, but occurs in species such as dandelions (pictured opposite).\n\nIt is easy for a mutation to convert meiosis into mitosis, and thus a sexually reproducing into an asexually reproducing female. \n\nIf the loss of sex would be relatively easy, why is sex maintained? \n\nAlthough some species do reproduce asexually, the majority are sexual. So there is probably a selective advantage to sex in most species. \n\nThis advantage, moreover, must be large, because it has to overcome an automatic two-fold cost of sex, relative to asexual reproduction.

They choose do reproduce plants that way because the cuttings are true to parents characteristically. Meaning, the next generation of plants will look and produce just like the plants of the year before.

right! plants have the ability to produce their own food. They get essential nutrients from the sun's rays and from the soil. When plants get certain elements and/or nutrients from its major surroundings, it is therefore able to convert the nutrients into food; making the plant survive with no dependence from us.

Most likely through photosynthesis. Billions of plants can't be wrong.

Though plants, including trees, sexually reproduce... they contain both sex organs. Look at flowers. Two different flowers contain both pistils and stamens. The pistil (in human equivalent, the penis) and the stamen (in human equivalent, the vagina) are included in every plant. They reproduce by releasing the "seed" through the pistil and having the wind either carry it or a bee carry it to another flower, where the stamen receives it. Hope that helps.

birds and bees pollenate flowers which make them grow and flourish and their seed then spread and the cycle starts again. like people male pollenate women then the stork comes and bring a new baby. wink,wink,nod,nod,righteo,righteo.

FLowers are the sex organs of the plant.  They are pollinated and make seeds.

This is when a cell reproduces by either mitosis (in most cases) or meiosis (in the case of sex cells)\n\nSee http://www.scienceaid.co.uk/celldivision.html for more information

It's a matter of survival.  Only a small percentage of seeds produced by plants will actually grow into mature plants.  Some won't germinate.  Some won't wind up in a place where they can germinate.  Some will be eaten.  Plants produce so many seeds so that enough of them will grow into mature plants to ensure survival of the species.

Same as any other plant really.  Storage, transportation, photosynthesis, absorption, reproduction

In contrast with the case of animals, many plants can hybridize (cross-fertilization between different species) and produce viable offspring. Plants deal with the different (non-matching) chromosomes from their parents by means of polyploidy, that is, instead of undergoing complete cell separation, they duplicate each chromosome and then retain the new pair, so that subsequent mitosis results in polyploid cells. These polyploid individuals usually are bigger, produce larger flowers and/or fruits, and may even be fertile. Even if they are not, their larger size and/or yield (as in crops) is advantageous for the agriculturers.\nPolyploidy can be induced by means of some substances (e.g. colchicine) that affect the cell and prevent its full division. The consequence is similar to the case of hybrids.

>Reproduction occurs both sexually and by asexual budding. Sexual reproduction is by means of eggs and sperm, which are produced in the mesentaries and shed into the water. Fertilization results in a free-swimming larva, which attaches to a surface and secretes a skeleton, becoming (in colonial forms) the parent of a new colony.

There are many different types of "sex" practiced in the plant and animal kingdoms besides the type we humans are familiar with. There are species in which the fathers get pregnant (like seahorses). There are species where males will turn into females (or vice-versa) if it would help the species survive. There are lots of examples of parthenogensis (virgin birth). There are cases where a single individual (like a plant) will pollinate itself, but others where biology tries to prevent this, although the plant might be hermaphroditic. There are plants which have several different reproduction mechanisms; a piece of the root can produce a new individual, for example. Some organisms can engage in both sexual and asexual reproduction as well; earthworms, honeybees, and geckos can asexually reproduce. There are species with 3 or even more sexes (like the clam shrimp in the US, for example, which has 3 sexes, or possibly  the New Zealand lizard the tuatara, which appears to have 4 sexes. There are species where males just fertilize the eggs deposited by the female in some location (most fish). Bacteria and viruses reproduce in strange ways, by dividing, or by taking over the reproduction mechanism of some other organism. \n\nThe astounding variety of "sex" and/or reproduction just goes on and on and on. We are still learning about the amazing diversity of life on this planet. \n\nIf and when we ever discover life on other planets, you can be sure that they will have different ways to reproduce, that may or may not have anything to do with what we might recognize as sex, and probably using mechanisms we cannot even imagine.

Asexual reproduction is the reproduction of a single individual without the use of sex.  Sex is defined as the halving of the chromosome number of an individual and its subsequent reconstitution at the fusion of the gametes (egg and sperm).  \nBasically asexual reproduction creates the clone of an individual as one individual copies its own genome and then splits into two individuals.\n\nBacteria and Archaeans (so all prokaryotes) reproduce only by asexual reproduction.  Also sponges have the ability to produce a full individual if one individual is broken into two pieces, which is called regeneration.  Also sea stars, sea anenomes, flatworms (etc.) are able to reproduce asexually by regeneration.

General\n Both are stationary and produce spores/seeds for reproduction.\n Both go through an alternation of generations.\n Both are classified at the nost basic level by method of reproduction.\n Many plants and fungi have asexual as well as sexual reproduction methods.\n\n plants=photosynthesis\n fungi=feed on living or once living material (unable to photosynthesize)\n\n\nTry making a chart with fungi in one column and plants in the other. Then compare the different information you have.
