Can someone remind me what this is?

I have never come across this in any of my bio books...is this about plants?

its from developmental and embryology....

I THINK it is a type of asexual reproduction carried out by plants.

Key word is, think.

I recall seeing it in destroyer or achiever test 1.

its part of the gasrula, the vegetative part is the site which there is no active division. its at the bottom for humans (i think)

the only thing i found on this is: http://books.google.com/books?id=H3...&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=1&ct=result

If it is embryology then yes it might come up IMO...I know this.
It is the nutrients (think of it like as yolk) and is very dense. The cells in the vegetative hemisphere divide less often than the animal hemisphere.

i was just reviewing my notes and it's the process that eventually leads to the formation of the endosperm 🙂. and yes, it's seen in plants (angiosperms as a matter of fact).
