ovules
A part of a flower. Part of the female part of the flower and is an unpollinated, immature seed. Once pollinated, the ovule will develop into seeds.
ovule -- In seed plants, the structure which gives rise to the seed.
paleoherb -- Any member of a group of basal flowering herbs which may be the closest relatives of the monocots. They include the water lilies, Piperales, and Aristolochiales.
Ovule - a plant's egg; found within the calyx, it contains all the female genes; When fertilized, an ovule will grow into a seed.
Oxygen - tasteless, colorless element, necessary in soil to sustain plant life.

Ovule The egg-containing unit of an ovary, which after fertilization becomes the seed.
Pad and fan cooling The use of a moistened surface and fans to cool a greenhouse.
ovule Within the ovary, a body that will develop into seeds after fertilization.
oxidation The chemical process by which sugars and starches are converted into energy. In plants, this is also known as respiration.
Each young ovule within an ovary contains a megasporocyte that undergoes meiosis to produce four haploid megaspores. Three of these usually disintegrate, and one divides mitotically and develops into a female gametophyte, also called and embryo sac.
Pistil- Ovule-bearing organ of an angiosperm composed of ovary, style, and stigma. Collectively the pistils are called the genoecium.
(AS. saed, seed) the part of a flowering plant that contains the embryo and will develop into a new plant if sown; a fertilized and mature ovule.sepal search for term- n.
Seed A fertilized, ripened ovule, almost always covered with a protective coating and contained in a fruit. Seed leaves The first two leaves - sometimes only one leaf - that grow after germination.
Ovary - enlarged, bulbous, basal part of the pistil which bears the ovules (the egg-containing units which, after fertilization, become the seeds) attached either to its central axis or to its inner wall.
Seeds are the mature ovules of a plant. A seed contains an embryo from which a new plant will grow under proper conditions. Seeds contain a supply of stored food and the genetic material that will cause it to grow similar to its parent plant.
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.
The female blooms appear later and consist of the ovules found at the tips of the new spring growth. When choosing your varieties, look for pollination compatibility and disease resistance.
-- , the site of attachment of the ovules to the placenta that later develops into a septum or partition separating the seeds within the mature fruit.
Definition as written by Terry: ...
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.
Thick part of the pistil, where it joins the stem. It contains ovules, which when fertilized, becomes the seed.
ovate
Egg shaped, with the broadest point below the middle. Length is 1½ times the width.
Pollen-Dust-like male bodies capable of fertilization of ovules. Each pollen grain contains two cells: the vegetative cell, from which the pollen tube develops and the generative cell, which produces sperm.
nucellus. In plants, the watery tissue composing the chief part of the young ovule in the flower and inside the seed during early development. It furnishes nutrients to the young embryo and is digested by the developing endosperm and embryo.
Ovary
The part of a flower containing the ovules that will develop into seeds upon fertilisation.
PISTIL: The female part of the flower, consisting of one or more carpels and enclosed ovules.
PLANT WINDOW: Double window with plants grown in the space between.
POLLEN -- The yellow dust produced by the anters. It is the male element which fertilized the ovule.
POT-BOUND -- A plant growing in a pot which is too small to allow proper leaf and stem growth.
stigma The tip of the pistil, usually sticky, which receives the pollen for fertilization of the ovule. strigose Rough with straight, short sharp appressed hairs. subgenus The principal subdivision of a genus.
Once the tube is complete, the second cell divides into two sperm, which use the pollen tube to reach the ovule.
on the anther—the male part of a flower - stick to the body of the insect. When the insect goes to another flower, some of that pollen sticks to that flower's stigma—the female part of the flower. That pollen then fertilizes the ovules ...
