Agricultural Experiment Station; Agriculture -- New York (State). Teacher's Leaflet. 1169 tufting characteristic of all the apples of the same variety? Are the tufted seeds as well as the carpels? (12). Cut the apple transversely across the middle. In what shape are the seed cells arranged in its center? Do the carpels vary in shape in different kinds, as to width and size? Do they all open into a com- mon cavity at the center? (13). How many seeds do the carpels contain? What is their shape, size and color? Do they lie with points toward the stem or toward the blossom-end of the apple? Are the seeds attached at any point or do they lie loosely in their cells? What is the color of the meat in the seed and does it separate into parts like that of the bean? In what part of the seed is the germ or embryo, which, if the seed were planted, would sprout into a seedling apple-tree? (14). Can you find any connection between stem, blossom-end and core? This bunch of threads is called a " fibro-vasctdar bundle;" can you count their number? (This observation and the preceding one need the help of a lens.) (15). Can you see, in the transverse section of your apple, between the core lines and the skin, faint little dots like a thickening of the pulp? Count them and tell how they are arranged with regard to the star formed in the center of the apple by the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original New York State College of Agriculture; Cornell University.
