What is calyx , corola, androciuem and gynociuem???
Answers
Flowers contain the plant's reproductive structures. A typical flower has four main parts—or whorls—known as the calyx, corolla, androecium, and gynoecium (Figure 1). ... Together, the calyx and corolla are known as the perianth. The third whorl contains the male reproductive structures and is known as the androecium.
Answer:
Calyx
A sepal is a part of the flower of angiosperms. Usually green, sepals typically function as protection for the flower in bud, and often as support for the petals when in bloom.
corola
Together, all of the petals of a flower are called the corolla. Petals are usually accompanied by another set of modified leaves called sepals, that collectively form the calyx and lie just beneath the corolla. The calyx and the corolla together make up the perianth.
androcieum
An androecium is the third whorl of most flowers. It is made up of male reproductive units called stamens. A stamen has a long stalk called a filament. At the top of the filament is a cluster of microsporangia called the anther.
gynociuem
The gynoecium, or female parts of the flower, comprises one or more pistils, each of which consists of an ovary, with an upright extension, the style, on the top of which rests the stigma, the pollen-receptive surface.
