The female reproductive part of a flower

The tip of the female reproductive structure of a flower where the pollen lands

Connects the stigma to the ovary of a flower

A flower structure that encloses and protects ovules and seeds as they develop.

A structure that contains an egg cell

Leaflike parts that cover and protect the flower bud

modified leaves which are usually bright in color to attract pollinators.

The transfer of pollen from male reproductive structures to female reproductive structures in plants

a reproductive process in which pollen from one plant is transferred to the stigma of another plant

A mature ovary of a flower that protects dormant seeds and often aids in their dispersal.

fruits whose seeds dispersed by wind, water, gravity, or animals to which the become attached/ Ex: grains and legumes

fruits that evolved to attracted animals that will eat thme, but then spit out, drop, or pass the seeds unharmed away from the mother plant.

the inner most part of the fruit wall, covering the seed

the middle layer of the pericarp, often the part that is eaten.

outermost layer of the pericarp of fruits as the skin of a peach or grape

Fleshy, simple fruit with a hard and stony endocarp, ovary superior, and single seeded (pitted). ex: cherry, olive, coconut

Fleshy, simple fruit with fleshy/slimy endocarp with many seeds ex: tomatoe, grape, green pepper

Fleshy, Simple fruit made mostly of receptacle tissue. ex: apple, pear, quince.

Dry fruit that do not split open at maturity with a hard/thick pericarp and a cup at it's base. ex: acorn, chestnut, hickory.

Dry fruit that do not split open at maturity whose ovaries occur seperately. ex: maple, ash, elm.Dry at maturity; winged; single-seeded

Dry fruit that do not split open at maturity with a thin/not winged pericarp. Single seed attached to pericarp only at it's base. ex: sunflower, buttercup.

reproduction and attracts pollinaters and Turns into Fruit, Plants

Supports flower, connects it to stem

Leaf like parts that cover and protect the flower bud

MALE REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS OF A FLOWER

A fine dust that contains the sperm of seed-producing plants

Complete flowers have

sepals, petals, stamens, carpels

the sweet and fleshy product of a tree or other plant that contains seed and can be eaten as food.
