This study guide encompasses essential definitions related to plant anatomy, focusing on key terms such as anther, corolla, cotyledon, and ovary. Each term is clearly defined, providing insights into the structure and functions of various plant parts critical for reproduction and growth. Through visual aids and illustrations, learners can visually connect the definitions with the anatomical structures. The guide also covers concepts like geotropism and phototropism, essential for understanding plant responses to their environment.

Filament • this part of the stamen holds up the anther towards the open part of the flower.
Geotropism • a response to gravity.
Iodine • the chemical used for the starch test, turning starch black.
Ovary • the place in the pistil where eggs are formed
Phototropism • a response to light.
Pistil • the part of the plant that contains the ovary.
Seed • an egg that has received genetic information from pollen. Therefore, genetic information is transferred from one plant to another.
Seed coat • the protective outer covering of the seed.
Sepal • the protective outer petal of the flower.
Stamen • the part of the plant where pollen is formed.
Tropism • a response.
