Stigma- where pollen lands
Ovary- becomes fruit
Fruit
Protects seed
Helps with dispersal (animals & wind)
Monocots
1 cotyledon
Parallel veins
Multiples of 3
Fibrous root
Eudicots
2 cotyledons
Branching veins
Parts in 4 or 5
Vascular tissue in a ring
Well-developed root structure
Conifers
Gymnosperms
Cones
Adapted to cold/dry
Abscisic acid
Helps to maintain the state of dormancy
