The pistil is the female reproductive part of the flower, consisting of the stigma, style, and ovary.

The fertilized egg is called a zygote, which is the initial stage of development before it becomes an embryo.

Speciation is the process through which new species arise from existing species due to evolutionary changes.

Speciation is the evolutionary process by which new biological species arise.

Fertilization is the process where the male and female gametes fuse to form a zygote.

Fertilization is the term used for the fusion of sperm and egg, leading to the formation of a zygote.

The genetic makeup of an organism is referred to as its genotype.

Mutation refers to random changes in DNA that can lead to genetic variation within a population, which is a key factor in evolution.

Global warming refers specifically to the long-term rise in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities.

Global warming refers specifically to the gradual increase in Earth's average temperature due to human activities.

Global warming refers specifically to the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere due to human activities.

Succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time.

Succession refers to the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time.

Extirpation refers to the loss of a species from a particular habitat, while extinction refers to the loss of a species globally.

Habitat fragmentation leads to the loss of biodiversity as it divides ecosystems and isolates species.

Genetic erosion refers to the loss of genetic diversity within a species, which can threaten its survival.

Transpiration is the process of water vapor loss from the aerial parts of plants, mainly through stomata.

The male gamete in flowering plants is contained within the pollen grain.

The stamen is the male reproductive part of the flower, consisting of the anther and filament.

Carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals of a particular species that an environment can support sustainably.

Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration.

Transpiration refers to the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, which helps in moving water against gravity.

Translocation refers to the movement of water and nutrients through the plant, specifically from roots to leaves.

The physical location of a gene on a chromosome is called a locus.

Homeostasis is the process by which living organisms maintain a stable internal environment despite changes in external conditions.

Meiosis is the process that leads to the formation of gametes, reducing the chromosome number by half.

Hypertrophy refers to the increase in size of muscle fibers, often as a result of resistance training.

Urine formation involves filtration, reabsorption, and secretion processes in the nephron.

Parthenogenesis is a form of asexual reproduction where an organism develops from an unfertilized egg.

The transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma is called pollination.
