What This Module is About

This module describes the reproductive parts in plant and their functions. It also
explains how are flowers different from one another and their similarities. It also
explains its parts when a flower is called perfect flower and imperfect flower. It also
tells us when a flower is complete and incomplete.
 What I Need to Know

Describe the reproductive parts in plant and their function.

Lesson
Title of the Lesson
Describing the reproductive parts in plants and their
1 functions

What’s In
Plants are seen everywhere with different types. They differ in size, shape, color,
smell, and even in their mode of reproduction.
Same as animals, plants need to continuously reproduce themselves. Some
reproduce through their seeds while some utilize other means. In this lesson, you will
learn more about the different ways of plant reproduction.

What I Need to Know

*Describe the reproductive parts of the plants and their functions [S5LT-IIf-6]
*Enumerate the parts of a flower
*Identify function of each part of a flower

What’s New

1. How are the flowers different from one another?

2. Why do you think they have different features?
 3. In what way are these flowers similar from one another?

What Is It
Some plants reproduce using their parts like their roots, stems, and leaves.
But there are some plants which reproduce by using their flower.

A complete flower has the following parts: receptacle, sepals, petals, stamens, and pistils.

Receptacles-is the enlarge upper end of a flower stalk which bears the flower or group of
flowers.

Sepals- are modified leaves which enclose and protect the other parts of a flower when it is
still a bud. When the flower blooms, the sepal supports the bottom of the flower.

Calyx—a group of sepals

Petals- form the most obvious part of a flower. Most petals are brightly colored to attract
insects for pollination.

Corolla- A group of petals

Stamen-the male part of a flower. It consists of filament and the anther.

Filament –holds the anther in a position tall enough to release the pollen.

Anther- consists of two lobes that contain pollen sacs.

Pollen sacs- have pollen grains that are released by anther when they mature.

Pistil-is the female part of a flower. It consists of the stigma, style, and ovary.

Style- is a stalk that connects the stigma to the ovary. It is tall enough to trap pollen grains.

Stigma- is a swollen structure at the end of the style. It receives the pollen grains. The
mature stigma secretes a fluid that stimulates the pollen grains to germinate.

Ovary- holds the egg cells which are to be fertilized by the sperm from the pollen grains.
 Parts of a flower

Complete flower - has a complete set of structures. These structures are the receptacle,
sepals, petals, stamen and pistil.
Incomplete flower-lacks one of the structures of a complete flower.

Perfect flower- has the male [stamen] and the female[pistil] reproductive parts.

Imperfect flower - only has either the pistil or the stamen alone.

Questions:

Answer the following questions

1. What are the parts of a flower?

2. Do all flowers have an anther and filament?
3. Do all flower have stigma, style, and ovary?
4. Why do flowers have male and female parts?
5. What do you call flowers that do not have either of the main parts?
6. Differentiate complete flower from an incomplete flower.
7. Differentiate perfect flower from an imperfect flower.
8. Can a perfect flower be incomplete? Why?
9. Can a complete flower be imperfect? Why?

Answers:

1. Answer: receptacle, sepals, petals, stamens and pistils.

2. Answer: some flowers have anther and filament but some don’t have
3. Answer: No, not all flowers have stigma, style, and ovary
4. Answer: The flowers have these reproductive parts so that they can help the
plant reproduce
5.Answer: Incomplete flower
6. Answer: a complete flower has a complete set of structures. These structures are the
receptacle, sepals, petals, stamen and pistil while an imperfect flower lacks one
of these structures.
7. Answer: A perfect flower has the male [stamen] and female [pistil] reproductive parts.
While imperfect flower only has either the pistil or the stamen alone.
8. Answer: Yes, because a flower only needs to have both the male and the female
parts to be called perfect flower.
9. Answer: No, for a flower to be complete, it needs to have all the structures including
the reproductive and accessory parts. An imperfect does not have both the
reproductive parts. Therefore, it cannot be a complete flower.

What’s More
Activity 1

What you need:

Five flowers such as Gumamela, Santan, Yellow Bell, Rose and Kumentang

What to do?
Carefully remove the sepals of the gumamela.
1. Open the flower and try to identify the parts.
2. Draw the respective parts of the gumamela flower on your notebook in
science.
3. Do the same with the other flowers.
4.
Compare the gumamela with the other flowers.
