  1. Flowers Laboratory Flower Structure and Interactionswith Pollinators

  2. Sporophyte Flower Pollengrains Gametophytes embryosac Flowering Plant Reproduction • Flowers are modified leaves, specialized for reproduction. • Flowers form on the diploid Sporophyte • Flower parts undergo meiosis to produce haploid Gametophytes • pollen grain • embryo sac

  3. Stamen Pistil A Complete Flower Has Both Male and Female Parts Anther Filament Stigma Petal Style Sepal All Petals=Corolla Ovary All Sepals=Calyx

  4. Plant Reproduction

  7. Development of Fruit and SeedsFrom Flower Parts Endosperm Triploid Endosperm Cell FreshFruit Ovary SeedCoat Integument Zygote Embryo • Seed = fertilized ovule = embryo + endosperm + seed coat • Fruit = ovary wall, mechanism for seed dispersal

  8. Comparing Monocot and Dicot Plants

  20. Impersonating a Pollinator

  21. Pollination by Moths

  22. Pollination by Hummingbirds

  23. Pollination by Butterflies

  24. Composite Flowers

  25. CLEAN UP! • Leave plant specimens in orderly arrays • Discard dissected flower parts in the trash • Return any microscopes to their cabinets Thank you!

  26. Worksheet • Turn in pages 151-153 from lab manual • Record your answer and reasoning for any 10 specimens, making sure to write the answer on the line that matches the specimen number • Be sure your instructor checks your completed worksheet before you leave the lab
