CBSE Class 10 - Science - Differentiate between Pollination and Fertilisation

 

Frequently asked questions:

Differentiate between Pollination and Fertilisation


Differentiate between Pollination and Fertilisation

Pollination

Fertilisation

It is the transfer of pollen grains from anther to stigma.

It is the fusion of male and female gametes.

It's a physical process.

It's a biological process.

It occurs on the stigma of a flower.

It occurs inside the ovule.

It takes place before fertilisation.

It takes place after pollination.

No zygote is formed.

Zygote is formed after the fertilisation.

It may need external agents like wind, water, insects, animals, etc.

No external agents required.

CBSE Class 10 - Science - Electricity - Important Definitions

 Important definitions:

  • One ampere: One ampere is the current constituted by the flow of one coulomb of charge per second.
  • One volt: One volt is the potential difference between two points in a current carrying conductor when 1 joule of work is done to move a charge of 1 coulomb from one point to the other.
  • One ohm: If the potential difference across the two ends of a conductor is 1 V and the current through it is 1 A, then the resistance R, of the conductor is 1 Ω.
  • One watt: One watt is the power consumed by a device that carries 1 A of current when operated at a potential difference of 1 V.
  • One unit of electric energy: One unit of electric energy is the energy consumed when 1 kilowatt of power is used for 1 hour.
