Does your child enjoy biology already? If not, you urgently need a microscope and several varied specimens for investigation.
For those who ask 100 questions an hour, you can show the most delicate pollen of flowering plants and the wiry, glossy leaf of a holly: How trees grow from pollen - the science of biology knows the answer.
Porphyry, a seaweed, is an ever-present ingredient of Welsh miner's breakfast. Amazingly, this breakfast can reproduce both sexually and non-sexually, depending on the time of year and other external conditions. Moreover, these processes are interlinked and so complicated that a separate field of biology, Algology, studies the life cycle of algae.
The SIGETA slide set "Plant life cycles" contains 12 specimens ready for study. Unlike SIGETA's Advance series, the Entrance plastic series is not related to the school curriculum and does not make any claim to be complete. Its goal is to arouse interest in knowledge and prepare children for future studies of the subject.
