What reading level is Botany book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The use of the flower is to bring about the multiplication of the plant by seed.
81. The flower consists of one or more series of organs crowded round the tip of a peduncle or pedicel (Par. 76), and called floral whorls. These differ greatly in form, colour, and size ; but all bear the same relation to the stem as leaves do, and are modifica- tions of the leaf-type. All foliar organs are developed on one plan, but take different shapes and perform different functions according to the requiremen...ts of the plant.
82. Before describing the individual floral organs, it will greatly facilitate the student's progress to fami- liarize him with their number, form, and relative positions, in flowers which differ very widely from one another. Beginning from without, the floral whorls are : — (a) Calyx, a protective organ ; it forms the first or outer whorl, is usually green, and its pieces, called sepals, may be separate (free), or combined into a cup or tube, wholly or in part only.
ip) Corolla, an attractive organ ; it forms the second whorl; it is white or coloured (very rarely green) in order to attract insects to the flower : honey •-' ' uigitizea Dy v^JV7V7'v i\^ * 48 SCIENCE PRIMERS.
