Science flowers questions-please answer?

I need the questions to be answered please for extra credit please?

-Describe the role that each flower part plays in the process of pollination.



-How could a gardener or scientist, such as Mendel, pollinate a flower.



-Explain what parts of the flower grow into the fruit adn seeds and how these parts grow into the fruit and seeds.



-Explain how the fruit grows, by explaining the process of mitosis and what results when a cell undergoes mitosis.

Science flowers questions-please answer?
The carpel/pistil is the female part. The stamens around the pistil are the male parts and the pollen is taken from the end of the stamens called the anther and deposited onto the pistil to enter the ovary.



Mendel could use a paintbrush to brush some pollen onto the carpel/pistil of the flower.



The ovary of the flower grows into the wall of the fruit and the ovules have eggs in them that develop into seeds. They grow by mitosis into fruit and seeds.



Mitosis is a complicated process including prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. When a cell undergoes mitotic divisions, it is made larger in size.



This is just basic information for the last two questions. The first two have pretty much summed all the answers up.
