Across
- 2. the structure which develops from the ovule after fertilization.
- 3. develops from a single carpel and opens along one suture.
- 6. fruit- develops from several ovaries.
- 9. the part of the embryo above the point of attachment of the cotyledons.
- 11. seeds- endosperm is present for food storage.
- 12. derived from 2 carpels which split when mature, along the midline into 2 one-seeded indehiscent halves.
- 14. derives from a superior ovary consisting of 2 locules which at maturity seperates into three portions with the seeds attached to the central, persistent portion.
- 15. it is also one-seeded, but the pericarp and seed coat are firmly united.
- 16. Fruit- develops from one ovary.
- 18. may be one-seeded or two-seeded and has a wing-like outgrowth of the ovary wall.
- 20. the fruit that develops without fertilization.
- 21. derives from an ovary with 2 or more united carpels, each carpel producing few to many seeds and splits in various ways.
- 25. is the beginning of the growth of a seed, spore, bud, or other structures
- 27. arises from a single carpel which at maturity splits along two sutures.
- 28. coats- made up of the testa derived from the outer integument and the tegmen from the inner integument.
- 29. seeds and fruits dispersed by wind are generally light and may have some structural adaptations like wings and plumes.
Down
- 1. commonly called "seeds" but when the pericarp is broken, the seeds within is seen to be attached to the ovary wall at one point.
- 4. derives from the primary endosperm cell and contains the stored food of the seed.
- 5. develops from several ovaries of a compact inflorescence
- 7. the transfer of fruits and seeds to distant places.
- 8. type of a berry with a thick, leathery rind with numerous glands which constitute the exocarp and mesocarp and a thick juicy portion of several wedge-shaped locules which are outgrowths from the endocarp.
- 10. develops from several ovaries of a single flower
- 11. seeds of many fruits pass through the digestive tract without being digested and are still viable when egested.
- 13. its growing tip is the radical which gives rise to the primary root.
- 17. one-seeded fruit with a hard or stony pericarp commonly called the "shell"
- 19. is the ripened ovary of the flower
- 22. the young plant inside the seed.
- 23. fruits dispersed by water are buoyant.
- 24. one or two-seed leaves.
- 26. derived from a compound ovary. Usually many seeds are embedded in a fleshy part which is both endocarp and mesocarp.
