This is a longitudinal section through what flower part (A)?

At this stage of maturity, what would this flower part (A) usually be called?

What is B?




These photos show structure B (in the above photo) at three earlier stages of development:

Name structure A (same in all three photos).
The series of photos shows what developmental process?
Is structure A haploid, diploid, or triploid?

Name tissue B (same in all three photos).
Is tissue B haploid, diploid, or triploid?
What is the function of tissue B?


Here is the same structure, now at a later stage of development than above:

Again, name structure A.
Structure A is contained inside a(n) ___, which is in turn contained inside a(n) ___.

Name the parts of structure A:
B is the ___.
C is the ___.
D are the ___.
Is this a monocot or a dicot?

Name the tissue at E.
