Bell work 1/12/12

Some plants have flowers & some do not. Some flowering plants (plants with flowers) produce fruit.

What part of the flower is the fruit? (You may give a specific name or talk about where the part is or what it does.)

Objectives

• Match the flower parts with their reproductive functions. (SPI 0707.4.2)– Take notes on flower parts– Create a flower foldable

Parts of the Flower

The Parts of a Flower

• Most flowers have four parts:

• sepals,• petals,• stamens,• carpels.

•

FEMALE

The parts of a flower

• Sepals protect the bud until it opens.

• Petals attract insects.

• Stamens make pollen.

• Carpels grow into fruits which contain the seeds.

Explain to your elbow partners about the four main parts of a flower and what their function is.

Stamen (male)

• Anther: pollen grains grow in the anther.

• Filament- long thread that holds the anther.

• When the grains are fully grown, the anther splits open.

Pistil (female)

• Stigma• Style• Carpel (ovary)• Ovules (eggs)

•Stigma: •Style: •Ovary: contains the ovules•Ovules: the lower part of the pistil that produces eggs in ovules

Elbow Partners

Pollination

• Flowering plants use the wind, insects, bats, birds and mammals to transfer pollen from the male (stamen) part of the flower to the female (stigma) part of the flower.

Pollination

• A flower is pollinated when a pollen grain lands on its stigma.

• Each carpel grows into a fruit which contains the seeds.

• Seeds are baby plants!!!

Directions for Foldable• Use page 166-172 to color, label, and define the following:

– Flower, petal, stigma, style, ovary, pistil, sepal, filament, anther, stamen, seed, fruit, photosynthesis, leaves, & stem

Draw, color, label, & define: roots

Draw & color: soil/ ground

Extra Credit: Draw & color background with the sun, rainwater going into the soil for the roots, & insects, such as bees, going through pollination.
