The male sperm cells are contained in pollen grains. The female egg cells are contained in the ovary. Sex among the flowering plants involves two separate but related activities: pollination and fertilization. Pollination is the transfer of pollen from the male organ of a flower to the female organ of a flower. The male organ known as an anther generates the pollen grains containing male genetic material. In most flowers, anthers are located at the tip of a stalk known as a stamen.
Also called Bravais lattice, crystal lattice, space lattice. Crystallography. an arrangement in space of isolated points (lattice points) in a regular pattern, showing the positions of atoms, molecules, or ions in the structure of a crystal. 5. Mathematics.
Minerals are crystalline solids. Common table salt is one example of this kind of solid. In crystalline solids, the atoms, ions or molecules are arranged in an ordered and symmetrical pattern that is repeated over the entire crystal. The smallest repeating structure of a solid is called a unit cell, which is like a brick in a wall. Unit cells combine to form a network called a crystal lattice.
