Today in science class we dissected a lily flower. It was really interesting to see what a flower contains on the inside considering that it looks very straight ford from the front. We looked at the male parts of it (stamen) and the female parts (stigma) and how they reproduce asexually. This was a really fun prac and I hope we do some more of this sort of thing soon.

Hi everyone. At the moment we are studying Asexual reproduction (i.e. a flower) Today in Science we dissected a flower to find out how the flower reproduced. I worked in a pair with NG. We got a lily and took the petals off, and we used a scalpel to cut the stem of the flower all the way down the middle. I didn't even need to read Dissection for Dummies!



It was that easy. We then opened up the stem and we saw a tube that must obviously bring the pollen to fertilize in the bottom of the stem. We could see the seeds that would've been growing if we hadn't dissected it. They were the tiniest things. Unfortunately I don't have any photos to show this time; but I have the amazing power of a DIAGRAM!!!!

That is enough from me. Bye, for now.

Flower Dissection

In class today, we learned how to dissect a flower. We did this by recognising all of the different parts, and then, using a scalpel, cutting down the stigma, seeing all of the eggs.

Today during science we had a flower dissection, this was an enjoyable activity as many of us were having fun! We made and incision through the style and stigma as you can see left, when doing this we found that a style has a visible tube through the middle. many of us did not know this and it was fun to learn.

Today during class we completed a flower dissection. The class really enjoyed having an upclose look at the reproductive features of flowers.
