Anatomy of a Flower interactive worksheet - Free Printable

Problem Description:

The task is to label the parts of a flower using the provided terms and descriptions. The diagram shows various parts of a flower, and we need to match them with the correct labels from the list.

List of Terms:

1. Anther - Makes the pollen.
2. Filament - Holds up the anther.
3. Ovary - Part of the pistil where seeds develop.
4. Petals - Attract pollinators with their bright colors.
5. Pistil - Is the sticky center of the flower that collects pollen and grows seeds.
6. Receptacle - The base of the flower where all parts are attached.
7. Sepal - Is the outer cover of the flower bud.
8. Stigma - The sticky part at the top of the pistil that collects pollen.
9. Stalk - Supports the flower.
10. Stamen - Consists of the anther and filament.

Solution:

#### Step 1: Identify and Label Each Part
We will analyze the diagram and match each part with the correct term from the list.

1. Orange Arrows (Top Left):
- These arrows point to the structures that produce pollen.
- Label: Anther

2. Orange Arrow (Bottom Left):
- This arrow points to the structure that supports the anther.
- Label: Filament

3. Purple Arrows (Center):
- These arrows point to the central structure of the flower, which includes the stigma, style, and ovary.
- Label: Pistil

4. Black Arrow (Bottom Center):
- This arrow points to the base of the flower where all parts are attached.
- Label: Receptacle

5. Black Arrow (Bottom Right):
- This arrow points to the stalk supporting the flower.
- Label: Stalk

6. Black Arrow (Left Side):
- This arrow points to the outer cover of the flower bud.
- Label: Sepal

7. Black Arrow (Right Side):
- This arrow points to the bright, colorful structures that attract pollinators.
- Label: Petals

8. Purple Line (Top Center):
- This line points to the sticky part at the top of the pistil that collects pollen.
- Label: Stigma

9. Orange Arrows (Combined):
- The combination of the anther and filament forms the stamen.
- Label: Stamen

#### Step 2: Match Descriptions
Now, let's match the descriptions with the labels:

- Anther: Makes the pollen.
- Filament: Holds up the anther.
- Ovary: Part of the pistil where seeds develop (not directly labeled in the diagram but part of the pistil).
- Petals: Attract pollinators with their bright colors.
- Pistil: Is the sticky center of the flower that collects pollen and grows seeds.
- Receptacle: The base of the flower where all parts are attached.
- Sepal: Is the outer cover of the flower bud.
- Stigma: The sticky part at the top of the pistil that collects pollen.
- Stalk: Supports the flower.
- Stamen: Consists of the anther and filament.

Final Labels:

1. Orange Arrows (Top Left): Anther
2. Orange Arrow (Bottom Left): Filament
3. Purple Arrows (Center): Pistil
4. Black Arrow (Bottom Center): Receptacle
5. Black Arrow (Bottom Right): Stalk
6. Black Arrow (Left Side): Sepal
7. Black Arrow (Right Side): Petals
8. Purple Line (Top Center): Stigma
9. Orange Arrows (Combined): Stamen

Final Answer:

\[
\boxed{
\begin{aligned}
&\text{Orange Arrows (Top Left): Anther} \\
&\text{Orange Arrow (Bottom Left): Filament} \\
&\text{Purple Arrows (Center): Pistil} \\
&\text{Black Arrow (Bottom Center): Receptacle} \\
&\text{Black Arrow (Bottom Right): Stalk} \\
&\text{Black Arrow (Left Side): Sepal} \\
&\text{Black Arrow (Right Side): Petals} \\
&\text{Purple Line (Top Center): Stigma} \\
&\text{Orange Arrows (Combined): Stamen}
\end{aligned}
}
