1. What is the sticky end of the carpel used for the collection of pollen from other plants?

Explanation

The stigma is the top portion of the carpel where pollen is collected, while the style connects the stigma to the ovary. The ovary contains the ovules and eventually forms the fruit. The anther is part of the stamen and is where pollen is produced.

2. What is the female reproductive structure of a flower?

Explanation

The carpel or pistil is the female reproductive structure of a flower, while stamen is the male reproductive structure, and petal and sepal are parts of the flower but not directly involved in reproduction.

Submit
3. What is the structure that houses the ovules of the flower, where once fertilized they develop into seeds?

Explanation

The ovary is the female reproductive organ in flowers where ovules are housed and develop into seeds after fertilization. The pistil is the female reproductive part of a flower, but the ovary specifically houses the ovules. Stamen is the male reproductive part of a flower, and petals are the colorful parts of a flower that often serve to attract pollinators.

Submit
4. What is the female reproductive cell that, when fertilized by pollen, will develop into a seed?

Explanation

In botany, the ovule is the structure that contains the female reproductive cells of a plant. When fertilized by pollen, the ovule will develop into a seed. Stamen, pistil, and petal are other parts of a flower that are not directly involved in seed formation.

Submit
5. What are the leaves that lie right below the petals of the flower, used as protection and nourishment for the flower when it is still a bud?

Explanation

Sepals are the outermost part of the flower that protect the bud and support the petals. Petals are colorful and attract pollinators, while the stem holds the flower upright. Stamens are the male reproductive parts of the flower.

Submit
6. What is the male structure of a flower that has two components, the filament and the anther?

Explanation

The stamen is the male reproductive organ of a flower, consisting of a filament and an anther. The pistil is the female reproductive organ, sepals are the outer parts of the flower that protect the bud, and petals are the colorful, often fragrant parts of a flower that attract pollinators.

Submit
7. What is the stalk part of the Stamen that functions to hold up and support the anther?

Explanation

The filament is specifically the part of the stamen that supports the anther, which is where pollen is produced. The other options are not correct as they refer to different parts of the flower.

Submit
8. What is the top of the Stamen which is supported by the filament, contains pollen sacs that release pollen, and transfers pollen to the stigma of another flower of the same kind?

Explanation

The anther is the top part of the stamen responsible for producing and releasing pollen.

Submit
9. What is composed of the Stigma, Style, and Ovary?

Explanation

The pistil is the female reproductive part of a flower, composed of the stigma, style, and ovary. The stamen is the male reproductive part, while petals and sepals are other floral parts.

Submit
10. Which part of the flower supports the stigma, where pollen drops inside the tube and goes into the Ovary where Ovules are fertilized?

Explanation

The style is the part of the flower that supports the stigma and connects it to the ovary for fertilization. The pistil is composed of the stigma, style, and ovary combined. The anther is the part of the flower where pollen is produced. The sepal is the outer part of the flower that protects the flower bud before it blooms.

Submit
11. What is the term used to describe the structure found underneath the receptacle?

Explanation

The peduncle is the stem-like structure that supports the receptacle, while the stigma, style, and ovary are other parts of a flower's reproductive system.

Submit
12. What is located underneath the Ovary?

Explanation

The receptacle is the thickened part of a stem from which the flower organs grow. The stamen, anther, and pistil are all parts of the flower but are not located directly underneath the ovary.
