22. Flower Ovary

     This is a picture of a flower which represents a flower ovary. A flower ovary is the part of the carpel where the ovules develop. It is the bottom part of the carpel, which is in the center of the flower. The ovary is located at the base of the carpel near where the flower connects with the stem. Most flowers, including the pictured flower, have both stamen and the carpel, as well as the ovary. The ovary is a necessary part of a flower when the flower reproduces because it holds the ovules which, when fertilized, will become seeds.
