Flowers & Plant
Hormones
SEPALS
cover and protect the flower parts when the
flower is a bud
PETALS
play an important role in attracting animal
pollinators
FILAMENT
CALYX (group)
COROLLA (
group)
thin stalk attached to anther
saclike structure
ANTHER
STAMENS
Pollen grains form within pollen sacs in the
anther
male floral parts
Parts
CARPEL
female reproductive unit
consist of a single carpel or a group of fused
carpels
STIGMA
STYLE
pollen grains land
pollen tube grows
contains one or more OVULES
PISTIL
EGG and 2 POLAR NUCLEI, along with
several other nuclei, are formed in the ovule
OVARY
Both egg and polar nuclei participate directly in
fertilization.
develop into seeds
female floral parts
has 4 kinds of floral organs; SEPALS,
PETALS, STAMENS, PISTIL
COMPLETE FLOWER
could also be a perfect flower
Types
INCOMPLETE FLOWER
lacks one or more of parts
could not be a complete flower
PERFECT FLOWER
only reproductive parts are present
Insect-pollinated
Pollination (by flyers)
often yellow or blue and have a scent
often yellow, orange, or red and DO NOT
have a strong scent
Bird-pollinated
Bat-pollinated
embryonic shoot; and one or two seed leaves,
or cotyledons
Cotyledon
mature embryo within the seed consists of a
short embryonic root, or radicle
Radicle
Seed Parts
Foliage leaf
Plumule
shoot apex, or terminal bud, located above the
point of attachment of the cotyledon(s)
Hypocotyl
Seeds
often have white petals and are scented
short portion of the embryonic shoot
connecting the radicle to one or two cotyledons
peanuts, coconuts, brazil nuts are not nuts but
seeds
Fleshy
berries, grapes, tomatoes, banana
SIMPLE FRUITS
Dry
coconut, wheat, beans, peanuts, acorn
develop from a single flower with many
separate ovaries
AGGREGATE FRUITS
strawberries, watermelons, atis fruits (sugar
apples/Anona)
Fruits 
develop from the ovaries of many flowers
growing in close proximity on a common axis
MULTIPLE FRUITS
pineapple, jackfruit
major part of the fruit consists of tissue other
than ovary tissue
ACCESSORY FRUITS
apple
process of seed sprouting
maturity of embryo
Germination
INTERNAL FACTORS
chemical inhibitors (presence/absence)
hard, thick seed coats (presence/absence)
EXTERNAL FACTORS
oxygen, water, temperature, and light
RHIZOME
horizontal underground stem
TUBER
fleshy underground stem enlarged for food
storage
BULB
modified underground bud with fleshy storage
leaves attached to a short stem
short, erect underground stem covered by
papery scales
CORM
horizontal aboveground stem with long
internodes
STOLON
Asexual Reproduction Structures
DETACHABLE PLANTLETS
leaves have meristematic tissue along their
margins and give rise to detachable plantlets
roots develop adventitious buds that develop into
suckers.they produce additional roots and may give rise
to new plants.
SUCKERS
APOMIXIS
production of seeds and fruits without sexual
reproduction
sexual - union of gametes, asexual - identical,
etc.
Difference between asexual and sexual 
directional growth response
TROPISMS
Phototropism 
to the direction of light
Gravitropism 
to influence of gravity
Thigmotropism 
to contact with a solid object
Shoot apical meristem, young leaves, seeds
AUXINS
Stem elongation, apical dominance, root
initiation, fruit development
(e.g., IAA)
Young leaves and shoot apical meristems,
embryo in seed
GIBBERELLINS
Seed germination, stem elongation, flowering,
fruit development
Various sites in plants
Cell division, delay of leaf senescence,
inhibition of apical dominance, flower
development, embryo development, seed
germination
CYTOKININS
(e.g., zeatin)
Plant Hormones
Stem nodes, ripening fruit, damaged or
senescing tissue
ETHYLENE
Fruit ripening, responses to environmental
stressors, seed germination, maintenance of
apical hook on seedlings, root initiation,
senescence and abscission in leaves and
flowers
ABSCISIC ACID
all cells that contain plastids (leaves, stems,
roots)
Seed dormancy, responses to water stress
Shoots (leaves and flower buds), seeds, fruits
Light-mediated gene expression, cell division,
cell elongation, seed germination, vascular
development
BRASSINOSTEROIDS
(e.g., brassinolide)
any response of plants to the duration and
timing of light and dark
Flowering is a photoperiodic response in many
plants
Photoperiodism
Short-day plants
detect the lengthening nights of late summer or
fall and flower at that time
Long-day plants
detect the shortening nights of spring and early
summer and flower at that time
Intermediate-day plants
circadian rhythm
flower when exposed to days and nights of
intermediate length
regular period in an organism’s growth or
activities that approximates the 24-hour day
and is reset by the rising and setting of the sun.
2 of circadian rhythms are the opening and
closing of stomata and sleep movements
genetic diversity
sexual, costly for survival in changing environ
genetic similarity
asexual, advantageous if stable environ
