The diagram provided shows the
parts of a flower. Which number is labeling the
ovary?
A flower is a structure that allows
for sexual reproduction in plants. Depending on the specific type of
plant, the flower may contain parts to attract pollinators, to release pollen, to
accept pollen, and an area for fertilization and partial development of the
resulting embryo.
The diagram shows a bisexual flower
that contains all of these parts. Let’s go through and identify each
unlabeled part in order to answer this question with confidence.
1 points to the stigma. 2 points to the style. 6 points to the ovary. These are all parts of the female
reproductive structures, known as the carpel. 4 points to the male reproductive
structures, known as the stamen. This includes the anther and the
filament. And 5 points to the sepal.
Therefore, the correct answer to
this question is 6. In this diagram, the ovary is
labeled with the number 6.
