Flower anatomy
![Page 3: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Flower anatomy• Sepals– Green leaves that protect the flower before it
opens• Peduncle– stem
![Page 4: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Flower anatomy• Petals– Colorful leaf-like structures– Attract animals and insects
• Calyx– All sepals fused
together
![Page 5: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Flower anatomy• Male: Stamen– Filament• Stalk-like structure that hold up anther
– Anther• Sack-like structure that holds pollen
– Pollen• Contains
reproductive cells
![Page 6: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Flower anatomy• Female: Pistil – Stigma
• Sticky part of pistil• Receives pollen
– Style• Rod that holds up
stigma– Ovary
• Holds eggs– Ovule
• Reproductive cell (eggs) that become seeds once fertilized
![Page 7: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Types of Flowers• Perfect flower– Contains male and female parts
• Imperfect flower– Contains only male or only female parts
• Complete flower– Contain sepals, petals, pistil, and stamen
• Incomplete flower– Missing either sepals, petals, pistil, or stamen
Imperfect flowers are always incompleteIncomplete flowers are not always imperfect
![Page 8: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pollination and fertilization• Sexual reproduction in plants
• Stamen releases pollen• Pollen is carried to a stigma– Does it have to be a different plant’s stigma?– Can it be?– How does it get there?
• Pollination occurs when the pollen reaches a stigma
![Page 9: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Pollination and fertilization• Pollen moves down the style depositing
sperm into the ovary• Fertilization occurs when that sperm
reaches an ovule inside the ovary• Once fertilized eggs become seeds and the
ovary will swell and become fruit
![Page 10: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Types of Fruits• How can fruit be different? • Name some different fruits
• What is the purpose of a fruit?
![Page 11: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Types of Fruits• It is the fertilized ovary of a plant that
grows to produce and protect seed.• Once fertilization occurs, the flower is no
longer needed and dries up.• Seed are formed within fruit.• Fruit must be sufficiently mature for the
seed to be viable.
![Page 12: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Types of Fruits• Good fruit formation is essential for
farmers and other producers– Why?
• The fruit that is often the most valuable product of a plant
![Page 13: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Fleshy fruit– Fibrous structure that surrounds the seed– Pome• Several seeds
– Drupe• Single seed
Types of Fruits
![Page 14: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Types of Fruits• Dry fruit– Formed in a pod or hull– Caryopsis• Thin wall
– Samara• Wings attached
– Pod• Definite seam
– Hull• No seam
![Page 15: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Seeds• Container of new life
• Good pollination is essential to creating lots of new seeds
![Page 16: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
seeds• What is their purpose?– Reproduce plants– Protect embryo– Provide food for new plant to grow
• Human uses– Food production
![Page 17: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
seeds• Corn, soybeans, and wheat – We want lots of seed from these plants– Most valuable part of the plant
• Grapes, oranges, and watermelons– We want few seeds from these plants– The fruit without seeds is more valuable
![Page 18: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
seeds• Seed structure– External • Protect and nourish internal parts
– Internal• Embryo and food supply
• Monocots vs. Dicots– Very similar– Significant differences
![Page 19: Flowers and Fruits](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/568163c3550346895dd4eb3a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Dicots• External– Seed coat• Hold seed together• Protection
– Hilum • Seed scar• Attachment to fruit
– Micropyle • Tiny opening• Pollen entered
this opening

seeds• Internal– Cotyledons
• Fleshy parts that contain food– Radicle
• Forms root– Hypocotyl
• Connects cotyledonsto radicle
– Epicotyl• Forms stem
– Plumule• Above ground part
of plant
