angiosperms |
|
gymnosperm literally translates to... |
naked seed |
|
4 phyla of Gymnosperms |
Coniferophyta Ginkgophyta Cycadophyta Gnetophyta |
|
Coniferophyta, Ginkgophyta, Cycadophyta, and Gnetophyta all produce what? |
cones (not flowers) |
|
Pedicel: |
stalk that supports the flower |
|
Receptacle: |
tip of the pedicel where the flower parts attach |
|
sepal: |
outer "leaves" at the base of the flower from where the petals also come out; are usually green or brown in color; may be petal like |
|
calyx: |
all the sepals, collectively |
|
petal: |
located just inside the sepals; usually colorful |
|
corolla: |
all the petals, collectively |
|
Stamen: |
pollen-bearing structure composed of filament and anther |
|
filament: |
thin stalk that supports the anther |
|
Anther: |
pollen producing structure |
|
Carpel: |
female reproductive structure; composed of the stigma, style, and ovary (often pear shaped and located in center of flower) |
|
Stigma: |
receptive tip of the carpel, usually sticky or hairy, where pollen is placed; important to pollen germination |
|
style: |
tissue connecting stigma to ovary (usually long and narrow but can also be short or even absent); pollen must grow through this tissue to fertilize the egg |
|
ovary: |
base of carpel; protects ovules inside and matures to form fruit |
