Plant reproductive morphology is asexual, producing only spores. Similarly, flowers produced by the sporophyte may be described as "unisexual" or "bisexual", meaning that they give rise to either one sex of gametophyte or both sexes of gametophyte. The flower is the characteristic structure concerned with sexual reproduction in flowering plants (angiosperms). Flowers vary enormously in their construction (morphology). A "complete" flower, like that of "Ranunculus glaberrimus" shown in the figure, has a calyx of outer sepals and a corolla of inner petals. The sepals and petals together form the perianth. Next inwards there are numerous stamens, which produce pollen grains, each containing a
Calyx podatypa Calyx podatypa Calyx podatypa is a species of demosponge belonging to the Phloeodictyidae family. It is native to the Caribbean. The species was first described in 1934 by American spongiologist Max Walker de Laubenfels. It is commonly found in shallow reefs, among seagrass and on mangrove roots. It is described as being mostly hollow with growths that range from branched to lobate in shape and tubular projections. It has round openings between 1-5mm in size. The colour is "Brown-yellowish to greenish" on the outside and tan on the inside. A number of biologically active compounds have been isolated from "Calyx
