  2. Floral axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_axis

    The floral axis acts much like a modified stem and births the organs that are attached to it. [7] The fusion of a plant's organs and the amount of organs that are developed from the floral axis largely depends on the determinateness of the floral axis. [8] The floral axis does perform different functions for different types of plants.

  3. Rose (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_(mathematics)

    Graphs of roses are composed of petals.A petal is the shape formed by the graph of a half-cycle of the sinusoid that specifies the rose. (A cycle is a portion of a sinusoid that is one period T = ⁠ 2π / k ⁠ long and consists of a positive half-cycle, the continuous set of points where r ≥ 0 and is ⁠ T / 2 ⁠ = ⁠ π / k ⁠ long, and a negative half-cycle is the other half where r ...

  4. Floral diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_diagram

    A floral diagram is a graphic representation of the structure of a flower. It shows the number of floral organs, their arrangement and fusion. Different parts of the flower are represented by their respective symbols. Floral diagrams are useful for flower identification or can help in understanding angiosperm evolution.

  5. Floral morphology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floral_morphology

    The function of these flowers is to specialize, within a group of flowers that are perfect, in attracting pollinating insects to the inflorescence. Such flowers, called neutral or asexual , are usually arranged on the periphery of the inflorescence and can be observed, for example, in many species of the compositae family, such as the daisy ...

  6. Graph of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_of_a_function

    Given a function: from a set X (the domain) to a set Y (the codomain), the graph of the function is the set [4] = {(, ()):}, which is a subset of the Cartesian product.In the definition of a function in terms of set theory, it is common to identify a function with its graph, although, formally, a function is formed by the triple consisting of its domain, its codomain and its graph.

  7. Inflorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflorescence

    The main axis (also referred to as major stem) above the peduncle bearing the flowers or secondary branches is called the rachis. The stalk of each flower in the inflorescence is called a pedicel. A flower that is not part of an inflorescence is called a solitary flower and its stalk is also referred to as a peduncle.

  9. Flower snark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_snark

    The flower snark J 5 is hypohamiltonian. [4] J 3 is a trivial variation of the Petersen graph formed by replacing one of its vertices by a triangle. This graph is also known as the Tietze's graph. [5] In order to avoid trivial cases, snarks are generally restricted to have girth at least 5. With that restriction, J 3 is not a snark.
