Great job Ivanah!
My first reaction to the thorn picture was, "No don't touch that thorn!"
Great looking strawberry! Have you ever wondered why strawberries have their seeds on the OUTSIDE, whereas most other fruits have the seeds on the inside. OOOOH...OOOH... extra credit to anyone who can explain it IN YOUR OWN WORDS.
Is that Cala lily real??
They can look that breathtaking, but the rest of the flowers in that photo look plastic.
I like the branding on your epithelial cells -- good way to prove it's you!
Good work!
From what I've read, the "seeds" on the outer layer of the strawberry are actually the true fruits. The word Achene came up, which is a dry fruit that contains a single seed, and they are present on the surface of strawberries. The part that we eat can be considered an accessory fruit meaning it did not derive from the plant's ovaries.
