Question
Draw a diagram of a flower and explain the parts of a flower.
Solution
The four visible parts of a flower are explained below.
- Sepal: Sepals are leaves that protect the flower while it is still a bud. Sepals are usually green in colour.
Petal: Petals are often brightly coloured. Their main job is to attract insects such as bees or butterflies, to the flower. The insects help the flowers in the transfer of pollen grains. - Stamen: Stamen can be seen at the centre of a flower. They contain pollen grains that help the plants to multiply. It is the male part of a flower.
- Pistil: Pistil is also seen at the centre of the flower. The pistil uses pollen to help the flower become the fruit. It is the female part of a flower.
