From Flower to Seed

Structure of a Flower

Flower

A reproductive structure of angiosperms; produces pollen in the anthers of stamens and seeds in a fruit; the mature ovary of a pistil.

How do flowers reproduce?

Pollen from an anther is caught by the stigma, travels through style to the ovules in the ovary. This is called cross pollination. This turns into a fruit; an ovary containing seeds.
