plz mark as brainliest answer!!!
Anther:The pollen-bearing body of the stamen, usually relatively compact, and supported at the end of the narrow filament. Under a lens, anthers exhibit a wide variety of forms and means of attachment. These characteristics are often important in technical keys for flower identification.
Bract:A leaf-like element below a flower or on an inflorescence. Bracts are typically shaped differently than other leaves on the plant. They are usually green, but occasionally are brightly colored and petal-like.
Calyx:The outer perianth of a flower. The calyx surrounds the corolla, and is typically divided into lobes called sepals. These are frequently green, and reduced relative to the petals, but they can also be large, and brightly colored, resembling petals. In many flowers, the sepals enclose and protect the flower bud prior to opening.
Corolla:The inner perianth of a flower. The corolla typically surrounds the reproductive parts of the flower. It may be continuous as in a petunia, lobed, or divided into distinct petals. In some cases, especially in cultivated varieties, the corolla may be doubled or even further multiplied, producing multiple layers of petals. In other cases, it may be lacking entirely.
Filament:The usually narrow and often threadlike part of the stamen which supports the pollen-bearing anther.
Involucre:A circle or cup of bracts that surrounds and supports the multiple florets of the head in the composite flowers of the family asteraceae. The shape and arrangement of the involucral bracts is important in describing the members of this family.
Ovary:The part of the pistil that encloses the unfertilized seeds or ovules, and that typically develops into a dry or fleshy fruit once pollination takes place. The ovary is generally central to the flower, and supports the other principle parts. Whether they are attached at the top (ovary inferior) or the bottom (ovary superior) is an important anatomical characteristic for classification. Not all "fruits" are mature ovaries; some form from supporting parts of the flower, for example, strawberries develop from the receptacle - the enlarged top of the flower stalk.
Pedicel:The footstalk supporting a single flower in an inflorescence.
Peduncle:The stalk supporting an inflorescence or solitary flower.
Perianth:The technical term for the envelope that surrounds the reproductive parts of a flower. This enclosure is composed of two concentric units, the outer perianth, or calyx which may be divided into sepals, and the inner perianth, or corolla, which may be divided into petals. Either the calyx or the corolla (or both) may be much reduced or lacking.
Petal:A division or lobe of the corolla or innerperianth of a flower.
Pistil:The seed-bearing or "female" reproductive part of a flower. The pistil is composed of the ovary, the style, and the stigma. The ovary contains the developing seeds, and is connected to the pollen-receiving stigma by the style. Flowers often contain a single pistil, but may contain several. Staminate or "male" flowers contain only stamens and lack pistils entirely.
Receptacle:The generally enlarged top of the footstalk, which supports the other parts of the flower. Some "fruits" are enlarged receptacles rather than ovaries.
Sepal:A division or lobe of the calyx or outer perianth of a flower. Sepals are often green, and/or reduced in size, but they can be colorful and petal-like as well.
Stamen:The pollen-bearing or "male" reproductive part of a flower. The pollen is borne on a more or less compact body termed the anther, which is supported by the filament. A flower may have hundreds of stamens, or only a few. Pistillate or "female" flowers have pistilsbut no stamens.
Stigma:The upper part of the pistil which receives the pollen. The stigma is often sticky, or covered with fine hairs or grooves, or other anatomical features that help the pollen to adhere. It may be cleft into several parts.
Style:The usually elongated part of the pistilthat connects the ovary to the stigma.
