Round 7: Tossup 20

Pseudocopulation with these structures is induced by Pouyannian mimicry, where these structures mimic a mate’s appearance. The development of these structures is described as the (10[1])interaction of three groups of homeotic genes (10[1])in the ABC model. (10[3])Entomophilous (“en-toh-MOFF-il-us”) examples of these structures co-evolved ultraviolet patterns to advertise themselves. (10[2]-5[1])The ability to bear fruits and these structures is shared by all angiosperms, whose common (10[1])name references these structures. Hermaphroditic, or perfect, examples of these structures contain both stamens and carpels. (10[1])For 10 points, name these plant reproductive structures that attract pollinators with (10[1])their colorful petals. ■END■ (10[1])
