Answer 1

The answer provides definitions for the terms 'adventitious', 'anther', 'bulb', 'ovary', 'pistil', 'sporophyte', and 'stigma' in the context of plant biology.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Adventitious - the appearance of buds or roots from tissue that is not bud or root tissue. An example of this is when roots appear from stem or leaf tissue and buds appear in root tissue.
2. Anther - the part of the stamen of a flower that bears the pollen.
3. Bulb - a plant structure with enlarged leaf bases and stored food surrounding a central bit of fleshy stem tissue. An onion is an example of a bulb.
4. Ovary - the round bottom part of the pistil where seeds grow.
5. Pistil - the female sex organ of the plant, consisting of the stigma, style, and ovary.
6. Sporophyte - a plant that produces spores by meiosis.
7. Stigma - the sticky, terminal end of the pistil where pollen is caught in pollination.
