1 Angiosperm Anatomy Test Vocabulary

2 1. Anther At end of stamen. Produces pollen.

3 2. Calyx The set of sepals

4 6. Corolla The set of petals

5 8. Filament Thin part of stamen that supports the anther.

6 11. Ovary At the base of a carpel. Where seeds develop. Becomes the fruit.

7 15. Petal Non-sexual, often showy part of a flower used to attract pollinators.

8 16. Pistil The set of carpels in a flower. Often used synonymously for “carpel”

9 17. Pollen Released by anther. Produces sperm.

10 20. Sepals Non-sexual flower bud scales. Sometimes showy.

11 21. Stamen The male reproductive structure. Made up of anther and filament.

12 23. Stigma The sticky receptive tip of a carpel.

13 24. Style The “tube” between the stigma and ovary on a carpel

14 28. Blade The flattened, photosynthetic, part of a leaf.

15 29. Compound leaf A leaf divided into leaflets.

16 36. Palmately compound leaf Leaflets radiate from a common point.

17 39. Petiole Leaf stalk

18 41. Pinnately compound leaf Leaflets branch off a mid vein, like the pinna of a feather

19 44. Simple leaf A leaf with a single blade, not divided into leaflets.

20 47. Vein Clump of vascular tissue in leaves

21 Added: Tendril A thin, modified leaf, used for grasping a support

22 Added: Stomata Leaf pores for gas exchange

23 50. Bark Outer layer of stem outside the vascular cambium.

24 53. Epidermis Single surface layer of cells on the outside of a young stem.

25 54. Internode The section of stem between nodes

26 55. Meristem The zone of dividing cells. In stems, it’s in the vascular cambium.

27 56. Node Often swollen point on a stem where leaves and buds attach.

28 57. Phloem Also called “inner bark.” A single layer of live cells outside the vascular cambium that transports plant products through plant

29 61. Vascular cambium Single layer of meristem tissue, produces xylem inside and phloem outside.

30 63. Xylem Stem tissue on the inside of the vascular cambium that conducts water up a plant. The major component of “wood.”

31 64. Adventitious root Roots that arise from somewhere other than the normal root zone

32 65. Diffuse roots Roots divided equally among several roots (no tap root). Can be FIBROUS or FLESHY.

33 66. Root hair Tiny projections near the end of a root that aid in absorption.

34 Rootcap A protective layer of tissue that protects the tender tip of a root and its meristem zone.

35 68. Taproot A root system consisting of one main root, like a carrot.
