What are secondary roots?
These are the two parts that make up the male portion of the flower (the Stamen).
What are the Anther and Filament?
The part of the leaf that attaches it to the stem.
What is the petiole?
These thin, fine structures on roots are the primary site for absorbing water and nutrients.

This flower part eventually becomes the fruit and seeds.
What is the Flower (specifically the Ovary)?
A flower that is missing either the male (stamen) or female (pistil) parts.
What is an Imperfect Flower?
True or False: All "Complete" flowers are also "Perfect" flowers.
