    Basic Parts Flower 1

    Uploaded by

    Anali Barbon
    The basic parts of a flower include the petals, sepals, stamen, and pistil. The colorful petals attract pollinators, while the sepals protect the developing bud. The male stamen contains the filament and anther, which produce and hold pollen. The female pistil is made up of the stigma, style, and ovary, where pollen can fertilize ovules to produce seeds when carried by pollinators from the anther to the stigma. Flowers can be perfect with both male and female parts or imperfect with only male or female parts.

    The Basic Parts of a Flower

    A flower is made up of many


    different parts. The sepal and petals are petal
    usually easy to see. The petals are the
    colorful, often bright part of the flower.
    Colorful petals attract pollinators and
    are usually the reason why we buy and pollen grains
    enjoy flowers. The sepals look like little anther
    green leaves growing at the base of the
    petals. The sepals enclose and protect filament
    the developing flower bud before it
    opens up into a fully developed flower.
    Flowers contain the reproductive stigma
    system of the plant, and some of the style
    most important parts of a flower are the ovary
    male and female parts that carry the
    sepal
    traits the parent plant will pass on to its ovule/seed
    offspring.
    The male part of the flower is
    called the stamen. The stamen is the
    pollen producing part of the plant, and
    it is made up of two parts: the anther
    and filament. The filament is the stalk that holds the anther and
    attaches it to the flower. The anther produces and holds the pollen, After reading the information on
    which will hopefully be transported to the female part of the flower the left, can you find these parts
    by wind, animals, or insects. on the flower you are dissecting?
    The female part of the flower is called the pistil, and it is made • petals
    up of the stigma, style, and ovary. The stigma is the head of the • anther
    pistil; it often looks like a sticky bulb on a long stalk in the center • filament
    of a flower. The stigma receives the pollen grains. The style is the
    stalk that the stigma sits on top of, and the ovary is usually at the • sepal
    base of the style. • stigma
    When a plant is pollinated, the pollen that has landed on the • style
    stigma grows a tube that reaches down through the style to the • ovary
    ovary. If pollen from an incompatible plant of a different species

    lands on the stigma, it won’t grow a pollen tube. When the

    fertilized by the pollen. Then the ovules become seeds, and the
    ovary swells. Seeds can be sown to grow new plants, and they can
    also be important food sources. We eat the seeds of wheat, corn,
    beans, and many other plants. We also eat many fruits, which are
    enlarged ovaries that contain the seeds of the plant.
    Some flowers are perfect, meaning they have both male parts
    and female parts in the same flower. Roses, lilies, and dandelions
    have perfect flowers. Other flowers are imperfect, meaning each
    flower has either all male parts or all female parts. Cucumbers,
    pumpkins, and melons have imperfect flowers.
