2. A cavity within a sporangium or a cavity of the ovary in which ovules occur.
Submit
3. A flower cluster, with a definite arrangement of flowers.
Submit
4. The stalk of the ovule.
Submit
5. The stalk of a stamen.
Submit
6. The outer wall layer of a spore or pollen grain.
Submit
7. A pattern of floral organization in which the sepals, petals, and stamens apparently grow from the top of the ovary.
Submit
8. A tissue, containing stored food, that develops from the union of a male nucleus and the polar nuclei of the central cell; it is digested by the growing sporophyte either before or after the maturation of the seed; found only in angiosperms.
Submit
9. The female gametophyte of angiosperms, generally an eight-nucleate, seven-celled structure; the seven cells are the egg cell, two synergids and three antipodals, and the central cell.
Submit
10. The egg cell and synergids located at the micropylar end of the female gametophyte, or embryo sac, of angiosperms.
Submit
11. The fusion of the egg and sperm and the simultaneous fusion of the second male gamete with the polar nuclei; a unique characteristic of all angiosperms.
Submit
12. The opening of an anther, fruit, or other structure, which permits the escape of reproductive bodies contained within.
Submit
13. The petals collectively.
Submit
14. The region of an ovule or seed where the funiculus unites with the integuments and the nucellus.
Submit
15. Relatively large vacuolate cells in a subsurface position in apical meristems of shoots.
Submit
16. Pertaining to a flower with one or more carpels but no functional stamens; also called a pistillate.
Submit
17. One of the members of the gynoecium, or inner floral whorl; encloses one or more ovules.
Submit
18. The sepals collectively; the outermost flower whorl.
Submit
19. Three cells of the mature embryo sac, located at the end opposite the micropyle.
Submit
20. The pollen-bearing portion of a stamen.
Submit
21. The floral whorl that comprises the stamens.
Submit
22. In angiosperms, the fusion of the second male gamete, or sperm, with the polar nuclei, resulting in the formation of a primary endosperm nucleus, which is triploid in most groups.
Submit
23. Nutritive tissue in the sporangium, particularly an anther.
Submit
24. A slender column of tissue that arises from the top of the ovary and through which the pollen tube grows.
Submit
25. The region of a carpel that serves as a receptive surface for pollen grains and on which they germinate.
Submit
26. Pertaining to a flower having stamens but no functional carpels.
Submit
27. The part of the flower producing the pollen, composed of anther and filament.
Submit
28. The tough substance of which the exine, or outer wall, of spores and pollen grains is composed; a cyclic alcohol highly resistant to decay.
Submit
29. One of the outermost flower structures, a unit of the calyx, usually enclose the other flower parts in the bud.
Submit
30. The part of the axis of a flower stalk that bears the floral organs.
Submit
31. The result of the fusion of a sperm nucleus and the two polar nuclei.
Submit
32. The transfer of pollen from an anther to a stigma.
Submit
33. A cavity in the anther that contains the pollen grains.
Submit
34. Two nuclei, one derived from each end of the embryo sac, which become centrally located; they fuse with a male nucleus to form the primary endosperm nucleus.
Submit
35. The manner of ovule attachment within the ovary.
Submit
36. The part of the ovary wall to which the ovules or seeds are attached.
Submit
37. A term sometimes used to refer to an individual carpel or a group of fused carpels.
Submit
38. A flower part, usually conspicuously colored; one of the units of a corolla.
Submit
39. A form of floral organizations in which the sepals, petals, and stamens are attached to the margin of a cup-shaped extension of the receptacle; superficially, the sepals, petals, and stamens appear to be attached to the ovary.
Submit
40. The fruit wall, which develops from the mature ovary wall.
Submit
41. The petals and sepals taken together.
Submit
42. The stalk of an inflorescence or of a solitary flower.
Submit
43. The stalk of an individual flower in an inflorescence.
Submit
44. The inner wall layer of a spore or pollen grain.
Submit
45. Group that contains the Bryophytes, Fungi, & Algae.
Submit
46. Group that includes the seed producers and where pollination is a must.
Submit
47. Phylum that makes up the angiosperms.
Submit
48. General term for a flower with both stamens and carpels(bisexual).
Submit
49. General term for a flower that lacks either stamens or carpels(unisexual).
Submit
50. A cavity within a sporangium or a cavity of the ovary in which ovules occur.
