Now lets see where they located on the flower!
Every part of our body has a different purpose; Just like in the flower!
Let's learn about each part..
1. Pistil-the female parts of the flower,
consisting of the stigma, ovary and
the style
•Stigma- sticky portion at the top of the
style where pollen grains usually land
•Style- the narrow elongated part of the
pistil between the ovary and the stigma, grows pollen tube
•Ovary-
contains
ovules;
after fertilisation, the ovary swells to produce fruit
2.
Stamen: male part of the flower, made up
of anther and filament
•Filament- supports anther to make it
accessible to insects
•
Anther- produces male gametes - pollen
3.
Pollen Tube- male gamete - contains half the
genetic information for the production of a new plant
4.
Ovule- In seed plants, the female
reproductive part that produces the gamete - egg
5.
Petal- brightly coloured, attract
insects
6.
Sepal- external covering of flower bud
7.
Reciptacle- thickened part of the stem from which the
organs grow
8.
Pedicil- stem that supports a single flower and
transports food and water
