Question
Figure 32.3 If the anther is missing, what type of reproductive structure will the flower be unable to produce? What term is used to describe a flower that is normally lacking the androecium? What term describes a flower lacking a gynoecium?

32.1 Reproductive Development and Structure Which is true of angiosperm flower structure? A. Most flowers are made up of four whorls, the outermost being the calyx B. The carpel of a flower is a component of the androecium C. If a species usually produces flowers with 5 petals but occasionally produces flowers with 4 petals, the 4 petal flowers are known as "incomplete" D. A "perfect" flower must have petals and sepals E. A "superior" flower is one where the ovary is found below the other flower parts
Figure 32.8 An embryo sac is missing the synergids. What specific impact would you expect this to have on fertilization? a. The pollen tube will be unable to form. b. The pollen tube will form but will not be guided toward the egg. c. Fertilization will not occur because the synergid is the egg. d. Fertilization will occur but the embryo will not be able to grow.
