OPE
Examining a flower50
1. Flowers are borne on stalks or pedicels in the axils of modified leaves called bracts. As
mentioned previously, flowers may occur singly or in a cluster. Examine at least one of the
flowering shoots provided and determine the floral arrangement. (Write the answer in #7.)
2. Using a pair of forceps, remove the outer green sepals of a single flower. Record the
number.
3. Remove and record the number of petals. (If more than 12, put numerous.)
4. Remove and record the number of stamens.
5. The structure remaining is the pistil.
6. Use a sharp scalpel to cut a horizontal slice from the ovary. Place this on a slide and
observe the cut surface with the stereomicroscope. Observe the ovules. Record the number
of compartments or carpels in the ovary.
7. Take another of the same flower. Hold it upside down between the first finger and thumb.
Carefully cut it with a scalpel into two halves along the plane of symmetry. Try to cut in a
plane that creates mirror images of…

In a common eudicot pattern of development for the common bean in the figure, the radicle emerges from the seed (1), then begins to develop into a primary root that grows down into the soil. As this occurs, the hypocotyl emerges from the seed and bends into the shape of a hook (2). The bent hypocotyl lengthens and pulls the cotyledons upward (3). When the hypocotyl reaches the soil surface, exposure to light causes it to straighten (4). Primary leaves emerge from between the cotyledons and begin photosynthesis. The cotyledons typically undergo a period of photosynthesis before shriveling (5). Eventually, the cotyledons fall off the lengthening stem, and the young plant's new leaves produce all of its food.
