What to Focus On

  • A flower has four whorls: calyx, corolla, androecium, and gynoecium.
  • Sepals protect the bud; petals attract pollinators.
  • Stamen is the male part; pistil is the female part.
  • Pollination is the transfer of pollen from anther to stigma.
  • Self-pollination occurs within the same plant; cross-pollination between different plants.
  • Agents of cross-pollination: insects, wind, water, animals.
  • Fertilization is the fusion of male and female gametes to form a zygote.
  • After fertilization, the ovule becomes the seed and the ovary becomes the fruit.
  • Sepals, petals, and stamens fall off after fertilization.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All flowers have both male and female parts.

Fruits are just sweet edible parts; vegetables are not fruits.

Pollen grains fertilize the egg directly in the ovary.

Memory Tips

The four whorls of a flower: Calyx, Corolla, Androecium, Gynoecium

Calyx is made of sepals; protects the bud

Corolla attracts pollinators with color and scent

Androecium = male part (stamen: filament + anther)
