    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.
