For the flower, directly involved in reproduction parts are

This picture shows the anthers and stigma with the pollen and dew.

the stigma, the top yellow part, and stem like part.

Here is the ovary that contains the ovules

This picture depicts the ovary (the green around the blob) and one ovule (the small sphere)

                The plant disection lab was a partner lab that I participated with myslef since i was absent. I first picked a healthy flower from the garden and grabbing a microscope.  i then examined the flower looking at all the petals and anatomy of the plant.  then pulled off the petals to get a better look at the anthers and stamin.  Then took pictures when i cut hem off and cut open the ovary to see ovules. then took pictures of those and wrote down my blog.

The brassica oleracea flowers growing in the garden.

The flower under the dissecting microscope.

The anthers of the flower after the petals have been removed.

The stamen of the flower

The ovules, inside the ovary.

A plant that produces flowers is called an angiosperm. An angiosperm reproduces when pollen from an anther is transferred to a stigma. Sometimes, it's the stigma of another plant, but can also fertilize themselves. When this pollination occurs, the ovules in the ovary will develop into seeds. The petals of the flower then fall off, leaving only the ovary, which then develops into a fruit. These fruits enclose and protect the seed. They also work to entice an animal into eating the ovary and depositing the seeds in other locations. This spreads the plant species around even more.

These are the Brassica Oleracea flowers we plan

to dissect  

This is an image of some of the male and female portions of the plant. This picture shows the male part of the flower, the anthers. Anthers are a part of the stamen and they are the sac where meiosis happens. This image also shows the stigma which is a part the female portion of the flower. The stigma  is where the pollen is typically collected.

 

This is another picture of the anthers

This is a closer view of the stigma

This is a picture of the ovary of the flower which

holds the unfertilized seeds

 

 

The Brassica Oleracea have a very interesting method for fertilization. The flowers of this plant have a male set of reproductive organs along with the female reproductive organs. The male reproductive organ named has two parts, anthers and filaments. The anther is responsible for producing the flower’s pollen. The female reproductive organ is called carpel. Carpel has ovaries, where the seeds are produced, and a sticky part called the stigma which collects pollen grains. Then on the outside of the flower there are petals to attract pollinators.

                The plant disection lab was a partner lab that I participated with Jonathan.  We started off by picking a healthy flower from the garden and grabbing a disection microscope.  We then proceded to examine the flower looking at all the petals and anatomy of the plant.  When then pulled off the petals to reveal a better look at the anthers and stamin.  After taking pictures of those we cut hem off and cut open the ovary too take a look atthe ovules.  We then took pictures of those and wrote down our blogs.
