surround and protect the surround and protect the flower bud flower bud

6. 6. StigmaStigma-- Sticky top to the pistil, Sticky top to the pistil,

collects the pollen during collects the pollen during pollinationpollination


7. 7. StyleStyle- - Long stalk like part that Long stalk like part that

extends from ovary, extends from ovary, supports the stigmasupports the stigma

8. 8. OvuleOvule- - Located inside the Located inside the

ovaries, will develop into ovaries, will develop into a seed after fertilizationa seed after fertilization

contains 2 nuclei, contains 2 nuclei, 1 tube 1 tube nucleusnucleus, , 1 generative 1 generative nucleusnucleus

12. 12. AntherAnther- - Knob like end of the Knob like end of the

stamen, forms the sperm stamen, forms the sperm nuclei and the pollen nuclei and the pollen grainsgrains
