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.
The Seven Crystal Systems The seven crystal systems are a method of classifying crystals according to their atomic lattice or structure. The atomic lattice is a three dimensional network of atoms that are arranged in a symmetrical pattern. The shape of the lattice determines not only which crystal system the stone belongs to, but all of its physical properties and appearance.
