Tap to reveal answer

Answer

Once a plant is fertilized, the ovary will ripen around the developing seed of a plant and become a fruit. These fruits perform many functions including protection, provision of nutrients for the developing plant embryo, and aid in dispersal. The pedicel is the stem that connects the flower to the rest of the plant. The stigma is the sticky tip of the pistil that receives pollen from the environment. The stamen is the male section of the flower and the anther is the tip of the stamen that disperses pollen.
