The lecture about plant parts and reproductionmanangelic26
The document discusses the parts and functions of flowers, as well as the process of pollination and reproduction in plants. It describes the male and female reproductive organs in flowers - stamens which produce pollen, and carpels which contain the ovules. Pollination occurs when pollen is transferred, usually by pollinators like bees and butterflies, from the anthers to the stigma of the same or another flower. This allows for fertilization and the development of seeds and fruits, allowing plants to reproduce. The document also discusses the types of pollination - cross pollination between different plants versus self pollination within the same plant.
The document discusses the different parts of a flower, including the sepals, petals, androecium, and gynoecium. The sepals form the outermost whorl and are green in color. The petals are brightly colored to attract insects for pollination. The androecium is the male part of the flower and contains stamens. The gynoecium is the female part and contains carpels, which have three parts - the stigma, style, and ovary.
The document provides information about flower parts and types of flowers. It discusses that a flower has four main parts: calyx, corolla, androecium, and gynoecium. It defines each part and their function. The document also describes the different types of flowers such as perfect versus imperfect, complete versus incomplete, monoecious versus dioecious, protandry versus protogamy, homostyle versus heterostyle. It concludes with definitions of sterile and natural flowers.
This document provides information about flower parts and their functions. It defines a flower as the seed-bearing part of a plant consisting of reproductive organs surrounded by petals and sepals. The main parts of a complete flower are identified as: sepals, petals, stamens, and pistil. Each part is then defined, with sepals described as the outer green leaves that protect the inner parts, petals attracting insects for pollination, stamens producing pollen, and the pistil composed of an ovary, style and stigma where fertilization occurs.
The document discusses the different parts of a flower including the petals, sepals, stamens, and pistil. It provides descriptions of each part and their functions. The petals together form the corolla and surround the reproductive parts of flowers. Sepals form the outermost part of the flower and protect the bud. Stamens are the male pollen-producing part of flowers. The pistil is usually called the female part and may contain one or more carpels consisting of an ovary, stigma, and sometimes a style. Each part is then observed under a digital microscope.
Here are the key points about vegetative reproduction:
- It involves the propagation of plants from vegetative plant parts like stems, leaves, roots etc without formation of seeds or spores.
- New individuals are formed without fusion of gametes.
- Common methods include runners/stolons (strawberry), suckers (potato), bulbs/corms/tubers (onion, ginger), cuttings (money plant).
- The new individuals formed are clones that are genetically identical to the parent plant.
- It allows for rapid multiplication of plants without reliance on seeds or flowers.
- Examples of plants reproducing vegetatively are potato (tubers), ginger (rhiz
The document summarizes the parts of a flower and their roles in reproduction. It explains that flowers contain reproductive organs and are made up of four main parts: sepals, petals, stamens, and pistils. The sepals protect the bud, petals attract pollinators, stamens produce pollen as the male part, and pistils receive pollen and contain ovaries to produce seeds as the female part. Pollination occurs through pollen transfer from the stamen to the pistil by wind, insects, or other animals. Fertilization happens when pollen grains fuse with egg cells in the ovary, developing into seeds and eventually fruit to protect and disperse the seeds.
This document defines and describes the typical parts of a flower including the pedicel, receptacle, sepal, calyx, petal, corolla, pistil, stamen, anther, filament, style, stigma and ovary. It also discusses the classification of flowers based on presence or absence of floral parts, size and shape of parts, symmetry, and position of the ovary. Complete flowers have all four parts - sepal, petal, stamen and pistil - while incomplete flowers lack one or more. Perfect flowers have both stamen and pistil, imperfect have only one.

Flowers are the seed-bearing reproductive organs of plants. They typically have brightly colored petals and green sepals surrounding the stamens and carpels. The main parts of a flower include the peduncle, receptacle, sepals, petals, stamen, anther, pistil, stigma, ovary, and pollen. Pollen grains land on the stigma and grow a pollen tube down the style to the ovary, where the sperm nuclei fuse with ovules to produce seeds in the ovary which becomes a fruit. Insects help transfer pollen between flowers, aiding the plant pollination process.
The document summarizes the reproductive structures and functions of flowers. Flowers contain male and female structures that produce gametes. The male structures are the stamens, which contain pollen grains in anthers. The female structures are the pistil, consisting of an ovary holding ovules, a style, and a stigma that traps pollen grains to facilitate fertilization.
The document discusses basic flower structures including the stigma, style, ovary, locule, ovule, carpel, gynoecium, pollen, anther, filament, stamen, androecium, petal, corolla, perianth, sepal, calyx, receptacle, and pedicel. It provides examples of perfect, imperfect, and variable flowers and describes ovary positions including superior, hypogynous, perigynous, epigynous, inferior, half-superior, and half-inferior. Diagrams of flower structures and formulas are also presented.
Flowers have male and female parts that work together through pollination to produce seeds. The male part, called the stamen, produces pollen in structures called anthers. The female parts, called carpels, are made up of stigmas that catch pollen, styles, and ovaries where eggs are stored. Pollination occurs when pollen is transferred, usually by insects or wind, from the anther to the stigma, allowing the pollen tube to grow down to the ovaries and fertilize eggs, forming seeds.
The document identifies and describes the four main parts of a flower: the sepals, which are green and protect the bud; the petals, which are colorful and attract pollinators; the pistil, which contains the ovules or eggs; and the stamens, which hold the pollen. It encourages identifying these parts and naming each one.

The stages-of-fertilisation-in-a-flowering-plantRakhi Adarsh
The key structures in a flower include the stigma, anther, style, ovary, and ovule. The stages of pollination begin when a pollen grain lands on the stigma and stimulates the formation of a pollen tube. The pollen tube grows down the style and carries the pollen grain nucleus and two male gametes. It continues growing until it reaches the micropyle opening of the ovary, where the male gametes are released. One male gamete fuses with the female gamete to form a zygote, while the other fuses with the diploid nucleus to form triploid endosperm.
1) Plants reproduce both sexually through flowers, fruits and seeds or asexually through methods like rhizomes, bulbs and cuttings.
2) Flowering plants like angiosperms produce true flowers and seeds inside an ovary, while non-flowering plants like gymnosperms and mosses rely on cones, spores or other structures to reproduce.
3) Pollination is required for seed production, and can occur through insect, wind or water dispersal of pollen between male and female plant structures.

Flowers are the reproductive structures of flowering plants that mediate the union of male sperm and female ovum to produce seeds. They attract pollinators like insects, bats, and birds through traits like scent, color, and nectar guides to facilitate the transfer of pollen between flowers. A flower's form, including the arrangement of stamens and pistils, ensures pollen grains are transferred to the bodies of pollinators. Flowers are heterosporangiate, producing pollen and ovules as male and female spores in different organs within specialized floral structures.

They attract pollinators like insects, bats, and birds through traits like scent, color, and nectar guides to facilitate the transfer of pollen between flowers. A flower's form, including the arrangement of stamens and pistils, ensures pollen grains are transferred to the bodies of pollinators. They are made up of four main whorls: sepals, petals, stamens that produce pollen, and a pistil containing ovules.
Flowers and cones play an important role in plant reproduction. Pollen carries genes from the male parts of the flower or cone to the female parts, allowing seeds to form. Seeds grow inside flowers and are surrounded by fruits. Plants can reproduce sexually through pollination, which mixes genes, or asexually through methods like bulbs, tubers, and cuttings. Pollination is often carried out by wind or animals attracted to flowers.
Flowers and cones play an important role in plant reproduction. Pollen is transferred between male and female parts of flowers and cones through pollination, allowing seeds to form. Seeds grow inside fruits that develop around them. Plants rely on both wind and animal pollinators to transfer pollen between flowers and cones so that seeds and fruits can develop.
The reproductive parts of flowering plants are located in flowers. The male parts include stamens that contain pollen grains with male gametes, and the female parts include pistils with ovules containing female gametes. For sexual reproduction to occur, pollen must be transferred from the stamen to the pistil, either from the same flower (self-pollination) or different flowers (cross-pollination), allowing the male gamete to fuse with the female gamete in a process called fertilization, forming a zygote. After fertilization, the ovary develops into a fruit containing seeds with embryos that can grow into new plants.
This document discusses plant reproduction, including asexual and sexual reproduction. It describes the processes of meiosis, gamete formation, fertilization, embryogenesis and seed formation. It discusses pollination methods including biotic and abiotic pollination. Key plant structures are defined, such as flowers, their parts, and fruits. The roles of hormones and environmental factors in flowering are also summarized.
Most flowers contain both male and female reproductive organs. The pistil produces ovules as the female organ, while stamens produce pollen as the male organ. Pollination occurs when pollen travels between flowers, either via animals, wind or other means, and fertilization takes place when a pollen grain meets an ovule. The seed then grows inside the carpel and fruit, which ripens and spreads seeds that can germinate to form new plants.
This document defines and describes the key structures involved in plant reproduction, including cones, flowers, and their parts. It explains that gymnosperms reproduce using cones that produce male pollen grains and female ovules. Angiosperms reproduce using flowers, which are composed of sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels. Following pollination and double fertilization within the flower, seeds develop inside the carpel and are nourished by endosperm.
- Plants can reproduce both sexually, requiring male and female sex cells (sperm and egg), and asexually, where one parent reproduces an exact genetic copy without sex cells.
- Sexual reproduction involves the fertilization of egg and sperm cells within reproductive organs, while asexual reproduction occurs through vegetative propagation like stems, roots, or leaves.
- In seed plants, pollen carries sperm from the male stamen to fertilize the female ovule in the pistil, forming seeds which grow into new plants.
The document discusses flowers, their structures and functions. It defines flowers as compressed shoots bearing floral leaves that are the reproductive structures of plants. The main external parts of a flower are described as sepals, petals, stamens and pistils. Variations in flower structures and types of inflorescences are covered. The development of pollen grains and ovules is summarized, as are the processes of pollination, fertilization and fruit/seed formation.
Flowers, pollination, and double fertilizationaliefsella
Flowers have male and female reproductive parts that work together for pollination and double fertilization. The male parts include the stamen with anther that produce pollen. The female parts include the carpel with stigma, style and ovary containing ovules. Complete flowers have all parts while incomplete flowers lack some. Pollination occurs through biotic agents like bees, bats, flies or abiotically by wind. It involves pollen transfer from anther to stigma. Double fertilization uniquely occurs in flowering plants where two sperm cells from each pollen grain fertilize the egg and central cells in the ovule, leading to seed and fruit formation.
Flowers have male and female reproductive parts. The male parts are the anther and filament, while the female parts are the stigma, style, and ovary. Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma, aided by animals, wind, or other mechanisms. Each pollen grain contains two male sex cells that travel through the pollen tube to fertilize the female sex cell in the ovule. After fertilization, the ovule develops into a seed and the ovary into a fruit. Seeds are then dispersed by wind, water, animals or splitting open. Germination occurs when a seed with sufficient water, air and warmth sprouts a root.
Practical no.2 REPRODUCTIVE PARTS OF AFLOWER.pptEvansChikale
The document describes the parts of a flower, including both the vegetative and reproductive structures. It explains that the vegetative parts are the petals, which attract pollinators, and the sepals, which protect the bud. The reproductive parts are the stamens, which produce pollen in structures called anthers, and the pistil, which consists of the stigma, style, and ovary. The ovary contains ovules, where fertilization occurs and seeds develop if pollination is successful. It provides an example of the floral structure of maize, describing its male and female inflorescences.
1. Plant life cycles alternate between a sporophyte phase and gametophyte phase through the process of meiosis and fertilization.
2. The sporophyte phase produces spores via meiosis while the gametophyte phase produces gametes via mitosis which can fuse during fertilization.
3. In seed plants, the sporophyte is the dominant phase seen as trees and flowers, which produce male pollen and female ovules that undergo double fertilization to form seeds.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defectsSérgio Sacani
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...Sérgio Sacani
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
ANAMOLOUS SECONDARY GROWTH IN DICOT ROOTS.pptxRASHMI M G
Abnormal or anomalous secondary growth in plants. It defines secondary growth as an increase in plant girth due to vascular cambium or cork cambium. Anomalous secondary growth does not follow the normal pattern of a single vascular cambium producing xylem internally and phloem externally.
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

2. FLOWER
A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or
blossom, is the reproductive structure found
in flowering plants. The biological function
of a flower is to facilitate reproduction,
usually by providing a mechanism for the
union of sperm with eggs.
6. Vegetative Parts of a Flower
The vegetative part of a flower consists of the
following:
Petals: This is a bright-coloured part that attracts bees,
insects, and birds. Colour of petals varies from plant to
plant; some are bright while some are pale coloured.
Thus, petals help us to differentiate one flower from
another.
Sepals: Sepal is the green-coloured part beneath the
petals to protect rising buds. Some flowers have fused
petals-sepals while a few have separated petals-sepals.
10. There are two reproductive parts
of the flower –
Stamen: male reproductive part
and have two parts
1.filament. The filament is a
slender, threadlike object, which
functions by supporting the
anther
2.Anther. The anther is a
yellowish, sac-like structure,
involved in producing and
storing the pollens.
.
11. Pistil: female reproductive part and
divided into-
Stigma: It is the topmost part or
receptive tip of carpels in the
gynoecium of a flower.
Style: It is the long tube-like slender
stalk that connects stigma and the
ovary.
Ovary: It is the ductless reproductive
gland that holds a lot of ovules. It is
the part of the plant where the seed
formation takes place.
12. Pollination
Pollination is the process in which the pollens are transferred from anther to stigma. The process
of pollination can occur through a different medium
13. Fertilization occurs when
pollen grains are carried by the
wind to the open end of an
ovule, which contains the eggs,
or female gametophyte. There,
the pollen grain develops an
outgrowth called a pollen tube,
which eventually penetrates to
the egg cell
14. Functions Of Flower
1.Gametophytes develop in the flowers.
2.The flowers can produce diaspores without fertilization.
3.After fertilization, the ovary of the flower develops into a fruit containing
a seed.
4.The most important function of flowers is reproduction. They help in the
union of male and female gametes.
5.Flowers provide nectar to certain birds and insects, which in turn help in
the transfer of pollen from one flower to the other.
6.Flowers may promote selfing, i.e., the union of sperms and eggs from the
same flower, or cross-fertilization, i.e., the union of sperms and eggs from
different flowers
