plant repro ⋆｡˚

• male reproductive parts ( stamen ) : filament & anther
• female reproductive parts ( carpel ): stigma, style, ovary & ovule
• sepal: modified leaves which enclose and protect the flower in the budding stage
• petal:

  1. brightly-coloured to attract insects for pollination
  2. provide a landing platform for insects
  3. guiding lines for insects to obtain nectar
• anther: produces pollen grains
• stigma:

  1. receives pollen grains
  2. mature stigma secretes sugary fluid that stimulates pollen grains to germinate
• style:

  1. connects stigma to ovary
  2. holds stigma in suitable position to trap pollen grains
• ovary: contains one or more ovules
• ovule:

  1. contains one ovum (female gamete) each
  2. ovum is haploid
• pollination: is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of the same species
