Style

For flowering plants, style takes on a whole new meaning. In plants, the style is a structure found within the flower. It is a long, slender stalk that connects the stigma and the ovary. The stigma is at the top of the style and is a sticky platform where pollen is deposited.

Sepal

each of the parts of the calyx of a flower, enclosing the petals and typically green and leaflike.

Petal

each of the segments of the corolla of a flower, which are modified leaves and are typically colored.

Perfect

having all the required or desirable elements, qualities, or characteristics; as good as it is possible to be.

Pistil

pistil, the female reproductive part of a flower. The pistil, centrally located, typically consists of a swollen base, the ovary, which contains the potential seeds, or ovules; a stalk, or style, arising from the ovary; and a pollen-receptive tip, the stigma, variously shaped and often sticky.

Oveoul

plant structure that develops into a seed when fertilized. In gymnosperms (conifers and allies) the ovules lie uncovered on the scales of the cone. In angiosperms (flowering plants), one or more ovules are enclosed by the ovary (portion of the carpel, or female reproductive organ).

Anther

the part of a stamen that contains the pollen.

Stamen

the male fertilizing organ of a flower, typically consisting of a pollen-containing anther and a filament.

Ovary

In the flowering plants, an ovary is a part of the female reproductive organ of the flower or gynoecium. Specifically, it is the part of the pistil which holds the ovule(s) and is located above or below or at the point of connection with the base of the petals and sepals.

Stigma

The stigma is the receptive tip of a carpel, or of several fused carpels, in the gynoecium of a flower. The stigma receives pollen at pollination and it is on the stigma that the pollen grain germinates.

Imperfect

not perfect; faulty or incomplete.

Filament

the slender part of a stamen that supports the anther.
