Blog Post 10



                                  The Male Reproductive organ, or the stamen          The ovaries, where unfertilized
                                this part of the plant creates the pollen, which                          seeds are stored
                                 contains the sperm cells of the plant


The male, anthers, an the female, carpel,                                 The female organ, or the carpel, during reproduction,
this makes a perfect flower.                                                        the pollen, containing the sperm, sticks to the stigma
                                                                                                            on the end of the the carpel, fertilizing the seeds

The way that flowers reproduce is actually quite simple.  The male part of the plant, or the stamen (top left) creates Pollen which contains the plant's sperm cells.  Then, the pollen has to find its way on to the female part, or the carpel, of the same or different plant.  Insects,such as bees, wind, and animals can all do this.  Once the pollen ends up on the stigma of a plat, it fertilizes the ovules inside the ovaries.



This is the entire flower together.
