What to Focus On

  • A flower is a modified shoot specialised for sexual reproduction.
  • The four whorls of a flower are: calyx, corolla, androecium, and gynoecium.
  • Androecium (stamens) is the male reproductive organ; gynoecium (pistil) is the female reproductive organ.

  • Each stamen consists of a filament and an anther; anther is bilobed and dithecous (4 microsporangia total).
  • The four wall layers of microsporangium: epidermis, endothecium, middle layers, tapetum.
  • Tapetum is the nutritive layer; its cells are often binucleate.

  • Gynoecium may be monocarpellary or multicarpellary (syncarpous = fused pistils; apocarpous = free pistils).
  • Each pistil has three parts: stigma (landing platform), style (passage), and ovary (contains ovules).
  • Ovule parts: funicle, hilum, integuments, micropyle, chalaza, nucellus, embryo sac.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The mature embryo sac is 8-celled because it has 8 nuclei

Double fertilisation means the egg is fertilised twice by two different pollen grains

Geitonogamy is genetically different from autogamy because pollen comes from a different flower

Memory Tips

Parts of a Stamen: Filament and Anther

Four Wall Layers of Microsporangium

Tapetum — nourishes developing pollen grains

Sporopollenin — most resistant organic material, forms exine
