Document Summary

Identify and describe the function of the following floral structures: sepals, petals, stamens, carpels, filament, anther, stigma, style, ovary, and ovule. Sepal - outer layer of bracts involved in providing protection the inner flower whorls. They can be similar to the petals, or they may be scale like and green or brown in color. Petal - whorl of bracts found immediately inside the sepals. They can be colorful and fragrant and play a role in attracting pollinators. Stamen - male reproductive part of the flower which is involved in producing pollen. It is made up of a filament and an anther. Carpel - female reproductive organ of a flower. It contains the stigma, style, and ovary and is found in the center of the flower. Filament - slender stalk which supports the anther. Anther - pollen producing structure of the stamen. Stigma - the sticky part of a flower"s carpel, which receives pollen grains.

Please reword/ rephrase the following in one paragraph :

Arabidopsis has been extensively studied as a model for flower development. The developing flower has four basic organs: sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels (which go on to form pistils). These organs are arranged in a series of whorls: four sepals on the outer whorl, followed by six petals inside this, six stamens, and a central carpel region. Homeotic mutations in Arabidopsis result in the change of one organ to another â in the case of the Agamous mutation, for example, stamens become petals and carpels are replaced with a new flower, resulting in a recursively repeated sepal-petal-petal pattern.

Observations of homeotic mutations led to the formulation of the ABC model of flower development by E. Coen and E. Meyerowitz.^[30] According to this model floral organ identity genes are divided into three classes: class A genes (which affect sepals and petals), class B genes (which affect petals and stamens), and class C genes (which affect stamens and carpels). These genes code for transcription factors that combine to cause tissue specification in their respective regions during development. Although developed through study of Arabidopsis flowers, this model is generally applicable to other flowering plants.

Question 1 options:

	fruit.
	vascular tissue.
