Question:
What are the parts of a flower?
Answer:
The flower is that part of a plant that contains the reproductive organs. It contains four major parts:
1. Sepals - The small, green, leaf-like structure present at the base of flowers are known as sepals. Sepals protect the flower when it is in the form of bud.
2. Petal - Petals are the most colorful and attractive part of a flower. It attracts insects for pollination. The ring of petals in a flower protects the reproductive organs of a flower.
3. Stamens: Stamens are the male reproductive part of flowers. Stamen is made up of two parts:
(a) Filament: The stalk of stamen is called a filament.
(b) Anther: The swollen top of stamen is called anther. The anther contains a yellow powder-like substance called pollen or pollen grains. The pollen grains contain the male sex cells of a plant.
4. Pistil: Pistil is the female reproductive part of the flower. The pistil is made up of three parts:
(a) Stigma: The top part of the pistil is called stigma. It is sticky so that pollens can stick to it.
(b) Style: The middle part of the pistil is called style. It is a tube-like structure that connects the stigma to ovary.
(c) Ovary: The swollen part at the bottom of the pistil is called the ovary. The ovary contains tiny, egg-like structures called ovules. The ovules contain the female sex cells of a plant.

What our students and parents say about us!
Saiyam is using EduSaksham online courses from past one year. He is able to complete his tutorials, worksheets, and assignments on his own. Once he is done with worksheets, he can check his answers and if he has done any mistakes, then he can check the correct answers and explanations. They have been given so well that he is able to understand them himself and rarely he asks us for any clarification. He enjoys using the platform and has learned and improved a lot in Mathematics. I would recommend EduSaksham to all parents who want their kids to learn in a structured way and also enjoy the learning process.

Neeraj (Saiyam's Father)
I would like to thank Edusaksham on behalf of my son Aditya who attended " Math Olympiad crash course for 5 weeks". As per Aditya, this course helped him to understand new topics like Roman numerals and decimal places which were not taught in his school till date and had a better understanding of other topics. I personally thank EduSaksham for all the help and support.

Geeta Bansal (Aditya's Mother)
We had a good experience with EduSaksham. Because sheets are available online, Vedant enjoyed doing more and more sheets without any reminders. I could leave him on his own as he was very much motivated to cover the topics. Practice is very important in maths but it becomes difficult for us to prepare sheets, I am glad we found EduSaksham where in a lot of in a lot of sheets are available for practice and the quality of questions are also good. As it's a venture from IITians we could think of giving it a try and I am glad we tried

Shikha Chowdhary (Vedant's Mother)
I have grown up in a family where my father used to give me practice maths paper every day which I need to finish before I go to play. I think that strong foundation of solving new questions every day helped me to clear my IITJEE exam. But as working women, I always had time challenge to create practice Math papers for my daughter. Thanks to EduSaksham, their questions are so logical and conceptual that I don't feel the guilt of not creating practice questions by myself :). There are plenty of worksheet along with the tutorials for each chapter. It has made parents life easier :) And the best part is my daughter loves doing it. Thank you EduSaksham.
