  • 3D model depicting the parts of a flower

Overview

  • A flower is a reproductive structure of flowering plants that typically consists of colorful petals, protective sepals, male part stamens, and female part pistils. Flowers play a crucial role in plant reproduction by attracting pollinators, helping pollen move between the male and female parts of the plant’s reproductive system, and later on, creating seeds that can grow into fresh new plants. The male part (Stamen) of the Flower consists of Anther and Filament, while the female part (Carpel or Pistil) of the flower comprises Stigma, Style, and Ovary. In a flower, the parts that aren’t involved in making seeds are called vegetative parts.
  • To understand this topic using the model, feel the different parts of the flower with the help of this model. With the help of braille labeling, you will be able to identify each part and its structure and its position. The QR code present in the model will take you to the further explanation of parts of the flower and its function.
  • Parts of a Flower are divided into 5 main parts which are named as receptacles, sepals, petals, stamen, and pistil or carpel. The part of a flower is an interesting topic in the chapter “How do organisms Reproduce”. Flowers play a crucial role in plant reproduction by attracting pollinators, helping pollen move between the male and female parts of the plant's reproductive system, and later on, creating seeds that can grow into fresh new plants. The male part (Stamen) of the Flower consists of Anther and Filament, while the female part (Carpel or Pistil) of the flower comprises Stigma, Style, and Ovary.
  • Each part of a flower has a specific function that contributes to the reproduction process of a plant. These parts of a flower are divided into two parts: The vegetative part and the Reproductive part. In a flower, the parts that aren’t involved in making seeds are called vegetative parts. These are things like receptacles, petals, and sepals. On the other hand, the parts that help make seeds are the reproductive parts, which include the stamen, pistil, or carpel. Along with the vegetative and reproductive parts, a flower also consists of four Whorls which are calyx, corolla, stamen, and carpel.

Walkthrough

  • 1. Start exploring the model from the top-left corner. You will find the title of the model written in braille, 'Parts of Flower'.
  • 2. There are 3 petals in the model one at left, one at right and one at center of the model, they all are attached to each other.Reach to the top middle part of the model where you will find petals written in braille.
  • 3. If you start exploring below from the "petals", you will find a stigma written in braille which is located vertically on the left side.
  • 4. While you are exploring the Stigma you will find a lifted vertical line on top of the Stigma and you will find style written in braille.
  • 5. If you follow the vertical style you will find a different texture which is the receptacle and inside the Receptacle , you will find an ovary written in braille.
  • 6. In the middle section of the ovary you will find two vertical lines of Pistachios cover that acts as ovules, each line has 3-3 pistachios cover. At the sixth pistachios cover there is a thin thread attached to it that will lead you to its braille labeling "ovule".
  • 7. If you move just below from two vertical lines of the ovule you will find "Receptacle" written in braille.
  • 8. Now move to the top right corner and you will find a thick thread which will lead you to Anther written in braille. just below it you will find a thin thread attached to it which you lead you to a pistachios which act as an Anther.
  • 9. Anther is placed above filament which is made by rolling the paper. There are 6 filaments in total. 3 at the left side of the model and 3 at the right side of the model.
  • 10. While you are exploring the filament on the right side, the last filament has a thin thread attached to it which will lead you to "filament" written in braille.
  • 11. If you move a little left from filament written in braille you will feel "sepal" written in braille.
