Study Notes
Ovule Structure and Function
- A mature fertilized ovule develops into a seed, which contains a fertilized egg and provides nutrients to the developing embryo.
- Ovules are arranged in the ovaries, which are the female reproductive organs of a flower.
Ovule Components
- The micropyle is the minute pore through which pollination occurs.
- The chalaza is the basal swollen part of the ovule.
- Integuments are the outer layers that envelop the mass of parenchymatous tissues in a mature typical ovule.
- The purpose of integuments is to protect the ovule and facilitate fertilization.
Ovule Function
- The purpose of an ovule is to develop into a seed after fertilization, containing a fertilized egg and providing nutrients to the developing embryo.
