Question

questions 6-7 refer to the following diagram:

1. commonly, the fruit is derived from

(a) 2 (b) 4 (c) 7
(d) 8 (e) 9

1. pollination involves a transfer of pollen from

(a) 4 to 1 (b) 4 to 2 (c) 4 to 5
(d) 5 to 4 (e) 5 to 9

Explanation:

Question 6

To solve this, we recall flower structure: the ovary (part of the pistil) develops into fruit. In the diagram, label 2 is the ovary (or ovary - related structure that develops into fruit), label 4 is stigma, 7 is petal, 8 is sepal, 9 is stem. So fruit is derived from 2.

Pollination is transfer of pollen from anther (male part) to stigma (female part). In the diagram, 5 is anther (produces pollen), 4 is stigma. So pollen is transferred from 5 (anther) to 4 (stigma).

A. 2
