Lesson Worksheet: Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants Science

In this worksheet, we will practice identifying and describing the parts of a flowering plant that are involved in sexual reproduction.

Q1:

What structure within a flower is usually sticky to “catch” grains of pollen?

  • APetals
  • BAnther
  • CSepal
  • DStigma
  • EStyle

Q2:

What is the main function of sepals?

  • ATo produce male reproductive cells
  • BTo attract pollinators to the plant
  • CTo produce female reproductive cells
  • DTo protect unopened buds

Q3:

Inside a flower, there are male and female reproductive parts. What name is given to the male reproductive organ?

  • AStamen
  • BStigma
  • CStyle
  • DCarpel
  • EOvule

Q4:

Flowers contain the structures that help a plant reproduce sexually. Which part of the flower is usually brightly colored to attract insects to help pollinate the plant?

  • AStamen
  • BPetals
  • CSepal
  • DStigma
  • EOvule

Q5:

Inside a flower, there are male and female reproductive parts. What name is given to the female reproductive organ?

  • ASepal
  • BCarpel
  • CPetal
  • DAnther
  • EStamen

Q6:

What structure within a flower contains the ovules, the female reproductive cells?

  • APetals
  • BAnther
  • CSepal
  • DOvary
  • EStyle

Q7:

Flowers can be divided into floral whorls. These are circular sections that each contain a different organ of the flower. The names of these whorls are shown in the diagram.

Which whorl contains the stamens?

  • AAndroecium
  • BCorolla
  • CCalyx
  • DGynoecium

Q8:

Which of the following tables correctly matches the reproductive parts of a flower to their functions?

  • A

    FunctionProduces pollen that contain the male sex cells Contains one or more ovules, each containing a female sex cell“Catches” pollen grains
  • B

Q9:

Flowers can be divided into floral “whorls.” These are circular sections that each contain a different organ of the flower. The names of these whorls are shown in the diagram.

Which whorl contains the carpel?

  • AAndroecium
  • BCalyx
  • CGynoecium
  • DCorolla

Q10:

Flowers can be divided into floral whorls. These are circular sections that each contain a different organ of the flower. The names of these whorls are shown in the diagram.

Which whorl contains the sepals?

  • ACalyx
  • BCorolla
  • CGynoecium
  • DAndroecium
