Hello friends, welcome to a new post about science, today I came up with the idea to explain everything about flower petals, we will try to answer any question that may occur to us, such as what they are for, where they are because they have different colors! I also have a surprise for you, let's see them under the microscope! So enjoy my post and I hope you learn something new!๐ท๐ผ
Hola amigos bienvenido a un nuevo post sobre ciencia, hoy se me ocurrio la idea de explicar todo sobre los petalos de las flores, intentaremos responder cualquier pregunta que pueda ocurrirsenos, como por ejemplo para que sirven, donde se encuentran porque tienen colores diferentes! ademas te tengo una sorpresa vamos a verlos bajo el microscopio! por eso disfruta de mi post y espero que aprendas algo nuevo!๐ป๐บ๐
WHAT ARE PETALS? / QUE SON LOS PETALOS๐ง ๐ฆพ๐
Biology never ceases to amaze us and it is that nature has some accessories that stand out in the landscape, imagine that you are walking in an open field full of different flowers, what is the first thing that catches our attention? its petals right? of course ... If we are attracted to flower petals, what do you think happens with insects? it is a very powerful power of attraction, they are like the magnet of nature!๐ฎ
La Biologia nunca deja de soprendernos y es que la naturaleza tiene algunos accesorios que destacan en el paisaje, imagina que vas caminando en un campo abierto lleno de diferentes flores, que es lo primero que nos capta la atencion? sus petalos cierto? claro que si... Si a nosotros nos atraen los petalos de las flores que crees tu que sucede con los insectos? pues es un poder de atraccion muy poderoso, son como el iman de la naturaleza! ๐
The petals helped in the reproduction for millions of years to the plants, so much that today we can see thousands of varieties of petals of different appearances and coloration, this helped the plant to acquire new genetic characteristics and helped to adapt to various environments. For example, there are specific petals to attract certain insects, others are traps and so each plant has a different characteristic and use for its petals!๐ค๐ค
Los petalos ayudaron en la reproduccion durante millones de aรฑos a las plantas, tanto que hoy en dia podemos ver miles de variedades de petalos de diferentes aspectos y coloracion, esto ayudo a la planta a adquirir nuevas caracteristicas geneticas y ayudo a adaptarse a varios ambientes. Por ejemplo hay petalos especificos para atraer ciertos insectos, otros son trampas y asi cada planta tienen una caracteristica y uso diferente para sus petalos!๐จโ๐ป๐จโ๐ซ
Then returning to the subject that concerns us, we could define the petals as flower accessories, their main function is to attract insects or other pollinating animals, therefore the petals play a crucial role in the sexual reproduction of flowering plants or gymnosperms. , the petals form the so-called corolla since they completely border and cover this structure! Each flower has a different corolla, so we get a great variety of designs!๐ค๐ฎ
Entonces volviendo al tema que nos compete podriamos definir a los petalos como accesorios de la flor su principal funcion es la de atraer los insectos o otro animal polinizador, por tanto los petalos juegan un papel crucial en la reproduccion sexual de las plantas con flores o gimnospermas, los petalos forman la llamada corola ya que bordean totalmente y cubren esta estructura! cada flor presanta una corola diferente por lo que nos conseguimos con una gran variedad de diseรฑos!๐๐๐งก๐๐
In botanicals, petals are also used to classify flowers according to the number of petals they have! therefore we can find flowers: (apetalas, dicotyledons, monocotyledons) being the first those flowers without petals, the second with 4 or 5 petals and finally the flowers that have 3 or more multiples of petals!๐ฅ๐ฅ
En la botanica los petalos tambien se utilizan para clasificar las flores segun la cantidad de petalos que esta presenta! por tanto podemos encontrar flores: ( apetalas, dicotiledoneas, monocotiledoneas) siendo la primera aquellas flores sin petalos, la segunda con 4 o 5 petalos y por ultimo las flores que cuentan con 3 o mas multiplos de petalos! ๐ฏโ
PETAL FUNCTIONS? / FUNCION DE LOS PETALOS๐ง ๐ฆพ๐
As I mentioned before, the function of the petals is to attract pollinating animals, those that bring the male gamete to fertilize the flower and later originate the fruit! We always see bees in flowers. Of course, the flower's strategy is to attractively use the colors of the petals so that the animal poses and can feed on a "nectar" and at that moment the insect carries the pollen in its body!๐ฅ๐ฅ
Como lo mencione anteriormente la funcion de los petalos es la de atraccion a animales polinizadores osea aquellos que traen el gameto masculino para fecundar la flor y posteriormente originar el fruto! siempre vemos las abejas en las flores por supuesto la estrategia de la flor es usar de atraccion los colores de los petalos para que el animal se pose y pueda alimentarse de un "nectar" y en ese momento el insecto lleva el polen en su cuerpo!๐๐๐ฆ๐ฆ๐
The petals also have particular scents that are attractive to many other animals and this is where the fragrances of many perfumes are extracted, but the petals also have a protective function!๐ฎ๐ค
Have you noticed that some flowers close their petals at night? have you wondered why? Of course the petals are also a protective barrier for the internal parts of the flowers, that is, their reproductive organs! It usually happens at night because it is when it is most vulnerable, some animals can step on a flower and even then it can continue to function because the petals protected its internal structure!๐ฎ๐ฎ
Has notado que algunas flores en la noche cierran sus petalos? te has preguntado porque? claro los petalos tambien son una barrera de proteccion para las partes internas de las flores osea sus organos reproductivos! suele ocurrir en la noche porque es cuando es mas vulnerable algunos animales pueden pisar una flor y aun asi puede continuar funcionando porque los petalos protegieron su estructura interna!๐ฆพ๐ฆพ
Did you know that flowers were used in the bathroom by many civilizations for decades? the Romans made this practice famous, people of high society tamed baths with rose petals since it was aphrodic and gave a good aroma! other cultures to avoid bathing used perfume of petals!๐ฎ๐

BYEEE!!!! / UM GOSTOOO!!!๐โโ๏ธ๐
amazingly, I didn't see petals the way
we normally miss out on and don't see the importance they hold
