Draw the flower and label it State the function of the part labelled

I'm unable to draw images directly, but I can describe a flower's anatomy and its parts for you. Here’s a simple outline of a flower’s structure along with labeled parts and their functions:

Flower Anatomy

  1. Petals: The colorful parts of the flower that attract pollinators.
  2. Sepals: The green parts that protect the flower bud before it opens.
  3. Stigma: The top part of the pistil where pollen lands.
  4. Style: The tube that connects the stigma to the ovary; it helps in the transfer of pollen.
  5. Ovary: The enlarged base of the pistil that contains ovules; once fertilized, it develops into fruit.
  6. Anther: The part of the stamen that produces and contains pollen.
  7. Filament: The stalk that supports the anther.
  8. Receptacle: The thickened part of the stem from which the flower organs grow.
  9. Ovule: The structure within the ovary that develops into seeds after fertilization.
  10. Stamen: The male reproductive part of a flower, consisting of the anther and filament.
  11. Pistil: The female reproductive part of a flower, consisting of the stigma, style, and ovary.

Functions of Key Parts

  • Petals: Attract pollinators to facilitate pollination.
  • Sepals: Protect the flower during its development and support the petals.
  • Stigma: Receives pollen during pollination.
  • Style: Elevates the stigma and connects it to the ovary for pollen tube growth.
  • Ovary: Houses ovules and develops into fruit post-fertilization.
  • Anther: Produces and releases pollen grains.
  • Filament: Holds the anther in position to facilitate pollen transfer.
  • Receptacle: Supports the flower and links the flower parts to the stem.

If you’d like to visualize this, you can easily find many flower diagrams online that illustrate these parts.
