A 13m 18s video lesson covering all of 9.4 from Dan Rott:

An 18m video clip on plant reproduction from ‘The amazing lives of plants’ (MacGraw-Hill) – we do not need to know about double fertilisation though:

FERTILISATION

An animated, narrated tutorial on the life cycle of an angiosperm (which also includes a quiz from Sinauer Associates) and Double Fertilisation in Angiosperms (University of Kent & UCA). Both go into much more detail than you need (we don’t need to know about double fertilisation) but they are good.

POLLINATION

The beautiful tricks of flowers – a 14m TED-Ed talk from Jonathan Drori and here’s ‘The Beauty of Pollination’ from Louie Schwartzberg (TED):

In Crash Course Biology #38 – The Plants & The Bees: Plant Reproduction, Hank gets into the dirty details about vascular plant reproduction.
