Sepal • Green leaf-like structures that enclose the petals • Protects the flower bud and supports the petals as the flower blooms home
Petals • the often brightly colored parts of a flower immediately surrounding the reproductive organs • attract insects and other pollinating agents to the flowers, can produce nectar and they may be scented home
Pistil • The female part of the flower - consisting of the stigma, style and ovary • catches the pollen and provides holding place for seeds to mature home
Ovary • one part of the female reproductive organ of the flower containing the ovules (egg cells) • to hold egg cells in a flower, can become the fruit home
Style • one of the female parts of the flower - the stalk between the stigma and the ovary • connects the stigma to the ovary and allows pollen to travel down to the ovules home
Stigma • a part of the female reproductive organ located at the top of the pistils • has sticky surface that catches pollen grains home
Stamen • male part of the flower - consisting of the anther and filament • Makes pollen grains for reproduction home
Anther • pollen bearing portion of a stamen located at the top of the filament • made up of two lobes which contain the two sacs where pollen matures home
Filament • stalk of the stamen which bears the anther at the top • holds the anther above the flower so the pollen can be spread home
