Question

Contrast the male and female parts of a flower in terms of structure, function and
location.

Answer 1

here's your answer:

Male part of flower :

1. androecium is composed of stamens, which is male reproductive part of flower.

2. It contains filament and a anther, each anther is usually bilobed and each lobe has 2 chambers, the polen sacs.

3. pollen grains are produced in pollen sacs. a sterile stamen is called staminode.

4. the stamens in a flower may either remains free or may be united.

female part of flower:

1. gynoecium consist of carpel, which is female reproductive part of flower.

2. carpel is made up of stigma, style, ovary.

3. ovary is enlarged basal part, on which lies the elongated tube, the style.

4. the stigma is usually at the tip of the style and is thr receptive surface for pollen grains.

5. each ovary bears one or more ovules attached to a flattened cushion like placenta.

6. when more than one carpel is present, they may be free or United.

QUESTION:-

Contrast the male and female parts of a flower in terms of structure, function and  location.

ANSWER :-

Flowers are the reproductive part of a plant. They are not only involved in reproduction, but are also a source of food for other living organisms. They are a rich source of nectar.

Flowers can either be :

Complete

Incomplete.

A complete flower is the one that consists of sepals, petals, stamens and pistil. On the contrary, an incomplete flower is the one that lacks one or more of these structures.

A complete flower consists of two different parts:

Vegetative Part

Reproductive Part

Parts of a Flower

The different parts of a flower are mentioned below:

Vegetative Parts of a Flower

The vegetative part of a flower consists of the following:

Petals: This is a bright-coloured part that attracts bees, insects, and birds. Colour of petals varies from plant to plant; some are bright while some are pale coloured. Thus, petals help us to differentiate one flower from another.

Sepals: Sepal is the green-coloured part beneath the petals to protect rising buds. Some flowers have fused petals-sepals while a few have separated petals-sepals.

Reproductive Parts of a Flower

Flowers contain the plant’s reproductive structures

In different plants, the number of petals, sepals, stamens and pistils can vary. The presence of these parts differentiates the flower into complete or incomplete. Apart from these parts, a flower includes reproductive parts – stamen and pistil.  A flower may have only female parts, only male parts, or both.

The reproductive parts of a flower consist of the following:

Stamen: This is the male reproductive organ and is also known as Androecium. It consists of two parts namely: anther and filaments.

The anther is a yellowish, sac-like structure, involved in producing and storing the pollens.

The filament is a slender, threadlike object, which functions by supporting the anther.

Pistil: This is the innermost part and the female reproductive organ of a flower which comprises three parts -stigma, style and ovary. This is collectively known as the pistil.

Stigma: It is the topmost part or receptive tip of carpels in the gynoecium of a flower.

Style: It is the long tube-like slender stalk that connects stigma and the ovary.

Ovary: It is the ductless reproductive gland that holds a lot of ovules. It is the part of the plant where the seed formation takes place.
