Answer 2

Sepal:

• A sepal is a part of the flower of angiosperms. Usually green, sepal typically function as protection of the flower in buds, and often as support for the petals when in bloom.
• The term sepalum was coined by Noel Martin Joseph De Necker in 1790, and dervied from greek "covering".
• In some species the calyx not only persists after flowering but instead of withering , begins to grow until it forms a bladder-like enclosure around the fruit.
• Morphological, both sepals and petals are modified leaves. The calyx and the corolla are the outer sterile whorls of the flower, which together form is known as perianth.
• Photosynthesis in sepals occurs at a slower rate than in ordinary leaves due to sepals having a lower stomatal density which limits the spaces for gas exchange.
