In botany, a structure that bears or supports a cavity or chamber, particularly in certain plant structures.
From Latin 'antrum' (cave) + Greek 'phoros' (bearing, carrying). A rare botanical term combining Latin and Greek roots to describe plant parts that physically support or contain hollow structures.
Plants are engineers too—some flowers and seed pods have tiny chambers and pouches, and 'antrophore' is the botanical term for the part that holds these little caves, showing how nature builds compartments at every scale.
