Flower Anatomy

3. the female part of the flower, located at its center, comprised of four parts: stigma, style, ovary and ovules
5. located in the ovary, these parts become seeds when the flower is pollinated
8. male reproductive cells produced by the anther
11. the long, tubelike structure leading to the ovary
12. the joining of pollen with an ovule to form a seed

1. the fine, hair-like stalk that supports the anther
2. supports the flower by transporting water and nutrients up from the soil
3. the transfer of pollen to a flower that enables fertilization
4. located atop the filament, the part of the flower that produces pollen
6. the male part of the flower, comprised of two parts: anther and filament
7. this part once protected the buds of the flower, and now protects the ovary of the flower
9. located at the base of the pistil, this part contains ovules
10. the colorful outer part of the flower that attracts pollinators such as bees, butterflies and bats
