Ovary
The part of a flower containing the ovules that will develop into seeds upon fertilisation.
ovary
A part of a flower. Part of the female flower where the ovules (immature seeds) are kept. The ovary commonly develops into the fruit of the plant once the ovules are fertilized.

ovary -- In flowering plants, the part of the flower which encloses the ovules. When the ovary matures, it becomes the fruit.
ovule -- In seed plants, the structure which gives rise to the seed.
Ovary-Swollen bottom part of the pistil that contains the ovules or immature seeds.
Ovipositor-The egg-laying apparatus; the external genetalia of the female.
Ovary The ovule-bearing part of a pistil; the female part of a flower containing immature seeds (ovules).
Ovate Egg shaped, broadest below the middle.
Ovoid Said of a bud that is egg-shaped, with the broadest portion near the base.
ovary
Thick part of the pistil, where it joins the stem. It contains ovules, which when fertilized, becomes the seed.

The ovary is at the base of the plant. The stigma is at the top, and between them is the style. So, the pollen from the anther has to land on the stigma. When that happens, the pollen germinates and makes its way down into the ovary.
(L. paries, wall) when the placenta is attached to the wall of the ovary.peat search for term - n.
An ovary contains from 260-375 ovarioles. A queen may lay 1500 eggs per day, which means approximately 5 eggs are produced per ovariole per day.
If an egg is fertilized by one of the sperm stored in the spermatheca, the offspring will be female.
Style - the elongated stalk or neck connecting the ovary with the stigma.
In flowering plants, the seed is encased in the ovary, which enlarges into a fruit. The fruit may be red like an apple or a rose hip, green like a cucumber, purple like an eggplant, or brown like an acorn.
The majority of flowering plants produce 'perfect' flowers, meaning that each flower contains male (stamen, anther and pollen) and female parts (stigma, style, ovary and ovules), as well as other important flower elements.
Botanists consider an apple core a fruit, because it is a ripened ovary containing seeds. But by the looser definition of fruit, an entire apple (the core and the flesh surrounding the core) is also considered a fruit.
In contrast to varieties like `Early Girl,' `Quick Pick' and the cherry tomatoes, which have only one ovary, beefsteak tomatoes have multiple ovaries, sometimes a dozen, and optimum conditions are needed for pollination.
The pistil is the term for the central female reproductive organ around which the other flower parts are arranged - the stigma, style and ovary. The stigma is the sticky receptacle for the pollen, often swollen and flared in many plants..
The ovary and stamens are held atop a tall, distinctive stalk which is encircled by delicate filaments. The stigmas start out high above the anthers and slowly bend backwards to come closer for pollination.
Botanically speaking, a fruit is a fertilized ovary of a flower, containing seeds protected by a fleshy cover.
The sperm cell from the pollen grain travels down the style (a narrow stalk) to the ovary, where ovules, or undeveloped seeds, are waiting to produce new life.
The stigma will only allow suitable pollen to fertilise the ovaries.
The flower's ovary, which will later become the fruit, must be below the point at which the petals are inserted. The flowers are usually showy and take the shape of a funnel, more or less. They also tend to have many petals.
pericarp The fruit wall; derived from the ovary wall.
pericycle A root tissue giving rise to branch roots.
permeability The rate at which water moves through the soil.
Simple fruit - A fruit that is derived from a single ovary. For example a cherry.
Single Flower - A flower that has a single row of petals which contains all of the petals for that blossom.
Sodium (Na) - One of many salts found in soil.
PISTIL - The seed-bearing organ of a flower, consisting of the ovary, stigma, and style.
PLANT WINDOW - Double window with plants grown in the space between.
PLUG - A small but well-rooted seedling raised in a cellular tray and sold for growing on.
Pistil: the entire female section of the flower, including the eggs, ovary, , and .
Pollen: the mass of microspores in a seed plant that usually appears as a fine dust and is the agent of .
Pericarp- The wall of a ripened ovary (fruit) that is homogeneous in some genera and in others is composed of three distinct layers, exocarp, mesocarp, and endocarp.
locule. One of the seed chambers in the ovary or boll.
lodging. The toppling of plants of a grain crop before harvest, often from wind, rain, or waterfowl.

Male flowers grow on straight, smooth stems. The ovary or small, undeveloped fruit appears at the base of a female flower.
The seed-bearing organ of a flower, consisting of the ovary, stigma, and style.

GYMNOSPERM (produce naked seeds that are only partially
enclosed by tissues - conifers being the largest family). or ANGIOSPERM (produce a covered seed in an ovary
a protected chamber that forms part of the fruit).
pistil The female organ of a flower consisting of ovary, style and stigma. pollen Minute powder-like grains borne by the anther. Pollen contains the male gametophyte of a plant. precocious Flowering before the leaves appear.
Seeds contain a supply of stored food and the genetic material that will cause it to grow similar to its parent plant. Seeds are produced in the ovary of a flower when pollination has taken place.
pistil - The seed-bearing organ of a flower, consisting of the ovary, stigma, and style.
potting soil - A soil mixture designed for use in container gardens and potted plants.
