More Information
Flowers are essential for reproduction in flowering plants. The pistil is the female reproductive part and the stamen is the male part. These structures are surrounded by sepals and petals, which aid in protecting the reproductive organs and attracting pollinators.
Tips
A common mistake is to confuse petals with sepals, as they often look similar in some species. Remember, sepals are typically green and found below the petals.
