Parts of a Flower Worksheets - Free Printable - Free Printable

Let's solve the "Label the Parts of a Flower" worksheet step by step.

Step 1: Understand the Structure of a Flower

A flower typically has several key parts:

- Sepal: The outermost part, usually green, that protects the flower bud.
- Petal: The colorful part that attracts pollinators.
- Stamen: The male reproductive organ. It includes:
- Anther: Produces pollen.
- Filament: Supports the anther.
- Carpel: The female reproductive organ. It includes:
- Stigma: Receives pollen.
- Style: Connects stigma to ovary.
- Ovary: Contains ovules (which become seeds after fertilization).
- Ovule: Found inside the ovary; becomes a seed.
- Receptacle: The base of the flower where all parts are attached.
- Pollen tube: Grows from the pollen grain down through the style to deliver sperm cells to the ovule.
- Stem: Supports the flower and transports water and nutrients.

Step 2: Match Labels to Diagram

Now, let’s identify each part in the diagram based on its position and structure.

#### From the Word Box:
- Sepal
- Anther
- Filament
- Stamen
- Stigma
- Receptacle
- Style
- Ovary
- Petal
- Ovule
- Carpel
- Pollen tube
- Stem

Step 3: Label Each Part

Here’s how to fill in the blanks based on typical flower anatomy:

Top-left (left side):
1. Sepal – Usually at the base, below petals.
2. Petal – Colorful, surrounding the center.
3. Stamen – This is the entire male structure (anther + filament). But if there are two boxes, one might be for Anther, and the other for Filament.

Wait — look carefully: the diagram shows lines pointing to specific structures.

Let’s go line-by-line from the diagram (based on standard diagrams):

Assuming the diagram shows:

- Top left: A small green leaf-like structure → Sepal
- Middle left: A colored petal → Petal
- Bottom left: The base where flower attaches → Receptacle
- Below that: The stalk → Stem

On the right side:

- Top right: The top of the female part → Stigma
- Middle right: The long tube connecting stigma to ovary → Style
- Bottom right: The swollen base of carpel → Ovary
- Inside ovary: Ovule
- Pollen tube: A thin line going from stigma down through style → Pollen tube
- Carpel: The whole female structure (stigma + style + ovary)

And in the middle:

- Anther: The tip of stamen that produces pollen
- Filament: The stalk supporting anther
- Stamen: The whole male structure (anther + filament)

But note: some labels may be grouped.

Let’s assign them properly.

Final Answer (Labeling Guide):

From the image, here's the correct labeling:

#### Left Side (from top to bottom):
1. Sepal (green leaf-like structure at base)
2. Petal (colorful petal)
3. Receptacle (base where flower parts attach)
4. Stem (the stalk below)

#### Right Side (from top to bottom):
1. Stigma (top of carpel)
2. Style (tube below stigma)
3. Ovary (bulbous bottom of carpel)
4. Ovule (inside ovary)
5. Pollen tube (line extending from stigma down into ovary)

#### Middle/Center:
- Anther (top of stamen)
- Filament (stalk of stamen)
- Stamen (entire male structure — but likely labeled as separate parts)
- Carpel (entire female structure — includes stigma, style, ovary)

Wait — the diagram has two blank boxes on the left and five on the right, plus one central box.

Let’s re-express with positions:

Looking closely at the diagram:

- Left column (2 boxes):
- Top: Sepal
- Bottom: Petal

- Right column (5 boxes):
- Top: Stigma
- Second: Style
- Third: Ovary
- Fourth: Ovule
- Fifth: Pollen tube

- Middle-top: Anther
- Middle-bottom: Filament
- Central stem: Stem
- Base: Receptacle
- Carpel (might be labeled as a group)

But wait — there’s also a box on the far left and far right, possibly grouping parts.

Ah! Look at the brackets:

- On the left, a bracket connects two boxes: probably Sepal and Petal → these are accessory parts.
- On the right, a bracket connects four boxes: Stigma, Style, Ovary, Ovule → these are parts of the Carpel.

So:

Final Labeling:

#### Left Side:
1. Sepal
2. Petal
→ These are both accessory parts (not reproductive).

#### Right Side:
1. Stigma
2. Style
3. Ovary
4. Ovule
→ These are parts of the carpel.

Then:

- Anther → top of stamen
- Filament → supports anther
- Stamen → entire male structure (but only one label, so maybe just Anther and Filament separately)
- Carpel → entire female structure (but already labeled via parts)
- Pollen tube → line from stigma down
- Receptacle → base where flower parts attach
- Stem → supports the flower

Now, matching the lines:

Assume the lines point to:

1. Top-left: Sepal
2. Middle-left: Petal
3. Bottom-left: Receptacle
4. Far-bottom: Stem
5. Top-right: Stigma
6. Second-right: Style
7. Third-right: Ovary
8. Fourth-right: Ovule
9. Fifth-right: Pollen tube
10. Middle-center (top): Anther
11. Middle-center (bottom): Filament
12. Central stalk: Stem (already labeled)
13. Carpel → likely not directly labeled, but the bracket on the right groups Stigma, Style, Ovary, Ovule → so the large box on the right is labeled Carpel

Similarly, the left bracket groups Sepal and Petal → Accessories, but no word says "accessory" — so perhaps Petals and Sepals are listed separately.

Wait — the word box has "Carpel" and "Stamen" as options.

So likely:

- The large box on the right (with bracket) is labeled Carpel
- The large box on the left (with bracket) is labeled Stamen? No — Stamen is male, Carpel is female.

Wait — the left bracket includes Sepal and Petal, which are not stamens.

So that can't be.

Ah! Probably:

- Left bracket: includes Sepal and Petal → these are not reproductive parts, but protective and attractive.
- But the word box doesn’t have “accessory” — it has Carpel and Stamen.

So likely, the brackets are meant to group Stamen and Carpel.

Let’s re-analyze:

Look at the diagram:

- On the right, there is a bracket around four parts: Stigma, Style, Ovary, Ovule → these are parts of the Carpel
- So the large oval box on the right should be labeled Carpel
- On the left, there is a bracket around two parts: Sepal and Petal → but they are not a single organ like stamen or carpel.

But the word box has Stamen and Carpel, so likely:

- The left bracket is for Stamen? But it points to Sepal and Petal — that’s wrong.

Wait — no. Actually, looking again, the lines go to specific parts.

Let me reconstruct:

The diagram has:

- One line pointing to Sepal → label: Sepal
- One to Petal → Petal
- One to Anther → Anther
- One to Filament → Filament
- One to Stigma → Stigma
- One to Style → Style
- One to Ovary → Ovary
- One to Ovule → Ovule
- One to Pollen tube → Pollen tube
- One to Receptacle → Receptacle
- One to Stem → Stem
- And one to Carpel? Or Stamen?

But there are 11 lines.

Let’s count:

1. Sepal
2. Petal
3. Anther
4. Filament
5. Stigma
6. Style
7. Ovary
8. Ovule
9. Pollen tube
10. Receptacle
11. Stem

And two bracketed groups:

- Left bracket: connects Sepal and Petal → perhaps labeled as "Accessory Parts", but not in word box.

Wait — the word box has:

> Sepal, Anther, Filament, Stamen, Stigma, Receptacle, Style, Ovary, Petal, Ovule, Carpel, Pollen tube, Stem

So Stamen and Carpel are included.

Therefore, the brackets are meant to group:

- Left bracket: Sepal and Petal → but that’s not Stamen or Carpel.

No — actually, the left bracket likely includes Anther and Filament → because those make up the Stamen

Yes! That makes sense.

So:

- Left bracket: connects Anther and Filament → label: Stamen
- Right bracket: connects Stigma, Style, Ovary, Ovule → label: Carpel

That fits perfectly.

So the blank boxes are:

- Left bracket box: Stamen
- Right bracket box: Carpel

Then individual labels:

- Sepal → left side, below the bracket
- Petal → next to sepal
- Receptacle → base of flower
- Stem → below receptacle
- Anther → top of stamen
- Filament → stalk of stamen
- Stigma → top of carpel
- Style → middle of carpel
- Ovary → bottom of carpel
- Ovule → inside ovary
- Pollen tube → from stigma down through style
