what are the functions of a fruits and flower
Answers
Answer:
FRUIT- The seeds of a flowering plant are surrounded by a tissue called fruit, which may be fleshy or dry.
FLOWER- The primary purpose of a flower is reproduction. Since the flowers are the reproductive organs of plant, they mediate the joining of the sperm, contained within pollen, to the ovules — contained in the ovary. Pollination is the movement of pollen from the anthers to the stigma.
Explanation:
FRUIT- The functions of the fruit is to protect the seed inside and aid in its dispersal.
Some fruits harden to make accessing the seed difficult.
Many fruits promote wind dispersal .
Some fruits have hooks or spurs, which cling to the skin and fur of animals and are dispersed to far away places.
Fruits like pods rip open forcefully when dry , flinging the seeds away.
Fleshy coloured fruits attract birds and animals and are eaten by them. They pass unharmed through the digestive tract and are thus dispersed away from the parent plant.
