Blog Post #7: Dissection of a Flower pictures

Period 4 all had to dissect a flower to show the different parts of the reproductive system of a flower. Here is the flower that I dissected.

This is a close up view of the flower from under the microscope.

In this close up view, it is showing the male stamen of the flower. This produces pollen in order to be spread around the bees. This process creates more flowers.

These two pictures show the female carpel. This part of the flower holds the ovaries at the base of the flower. In order to reproduce it collects the pollen with a sticky substance contained in a tube like shape called the stigma.
