| stamen | The pollen-producing reproductive organ of a flower, usually consisting of a filament and an anther. |
| plumule | The rudimentary bud of a plant embryo. |
| seed coat | the box enclosing the baby plant |
| Radicle | the baby root |
| Embryo | the baby plant |
| Cotyledon | contains and nutrients |
| Endosperm | contains energy and nutrients |
| hilum | a small scar where the seed was attached to the parent plant |
| hypocotyl | he part of the axis of a plant embryo or seedling plant that is below the cotyledons. |
| germination | the awakening of a seed |
| stomata | One of the minute pores in the epidermis of a leaf or stem through which gases and water vapor pass. |
| photosynthesis | The process in green plants and certain other organisms by which carbohydrates are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water using light as an energy source. Most forms of photosynthesis release oxygen as a byproduct. |
| chlorophyl | pigment in plants that gives them their green color and that absorbs the light necessary for photosynthesis, the chemical reaction that converts light energy to chemical energy. Chlorophyll absorbs mainly red, violet, and blue light and reflects green light, causing leaves and other plant tissues to appear green. In fall, the amount of chlorophyll in the leaves of trees decreases, and other pigments predominate. |
| chloroplast | A chlorophyll-containing plastid found in algal and green plant cells. |
| Pistil | The female, ovule-bearing organ of a flower, including the stigma, style, and ovary. |
| Anther | he pollen-bearing part of the stamen. |
| Bract | A leaflike or scalelike plant part, usually small, sometimes showy or brightly colored, and located just below a flower, a flower stalk, or an inflorescence. |
| Style | The usually slender part of a pistil, situated between the ovary and the stigma. |
| sepal | One of the separate, usually green parts forming the calyx of a flower. |
