Question

figure 14.15 floral structure.

filament
stamen

Explanation:

Identify the male reproductive structures

The question asks to match the labels for "filament" and "stamen" from the provided diagram of a flower.
Using the Angiosperm Characteristics knowledge point, we identify the male reproductive organs of a flower:

• The male reproductive organ is the stamen (labeled as 8), which consists of two parts: the anther and the filament.
• Label 5 points to the anther (the pollen-producing sac).
• Label 11 points to the filament (the slender stalk supporting the anther).
• Label 8 brackets both the anther (5) and filament (11), representing the entire stamen.

Match labels to the requested terms

• filament: This is the stalk supporting the anther, which corresponds to label 11.
• stamen: This is the entire male reproductive unit consisting of the anther and filament, which corresponds to label 8.

Answer:

Question 1

filament: 11

Question 2

stamen: 8
