Science Joke by Nicolas Baey

A young banana plant is always found crying and being very upset.
One day, the kind adult banana plant decided to help and so she asked,
"Why are you always crying?"
The young banana plant replied,
"I just don't understand why. Everyone calls me a sucker in school."
(Ha ha...)
Warning: If you are not laughing, you have to revise your P5 Science, Plants' Reproductive Systems. =)

Hi Class,
We have done this in the beginning of the year, during orientations.
I hope you still remember, Dare to Be.

Pollination
Help Dectective La Plant discover how one plant can create many plants.
Start with the Case Brief, and then read the Facts of the Case (flower biology, pollination, and nonflowering plants.) Now you have enough background information to solve the two mysteries: "What Are the Parts of the Plants?" and "Do Plants Use Seeds to Reproduce?" and complete the three online activities.
