\card{Seed}{A mature ovule.}
\card{Fruit}{A mature carpel.}
\card{Flower}{The reproductive structure of the angiosperms.}
\card{Pistil}{The female organ of the flower.}
\card{Stamen}{A modified leaf which produces pollen grains.}
\card{Sepal}{The lowermost part of the calyx; sterile and usually green.}
\card{Petal}{One of the sterile units of the the corolla; often (but not always) colored.}
\card{Megaspore}{A spore arising by meiosis of the megasporocyte and that produces a female gametophyte.}
\card{Megasporocyte}{The megaspore mother cell that produces megaspores via meiosis.}
\card{Egg}{The female gamete.}
%-----------------
\card{Endosperm}{A nutrient tissue produced during double fertilization of the angiosperm embryo sac and used by the developing embryo as a source of energy.}
\card{Double fertilization}{In addition to the fertilization of the egg by the sperm, secondary fertilization occurs between another sperm and one or more nuclei produced in the embryo sac.}
\card{Angiosperm}{Plants that produce their ovules \textit{inside} of a specialized container called the carpel.}
\card{Ovary}{The enlarged base of the pistil or carpel in which the ovules develop; may developed into a fruit.}
\card{Tube cell}{One of the cells resulting from germination of the microspore of gymnosperms and flowering plants.}
\card{Stigma}{The very tip of the pistil which is receptive to pollen.}
\card{Anther}{The uppermost part of the stamen that produces pollen.}
\card{Style}{The portion of the pistil between the stigma and the ovary.}
\card{Filament}{The stalk of the stamen.}
\card{Locule}{In flowering lants, the chamber that contains the ovules of the ovary.}
%-----------------
\card{Annual}{Plants which germinate, grow, and die in a single season.}
\card{Biannual}{Plants which germinate and grow in a single season, and then bloom and die in a second season.}
\card{Perennial}{Plants which live longer than two seasons.}
\card{Cotyledon}{An embryonic leaf within which food may or may not be stored and which may or may not become photosynthetic upon germination.}
