                                                                Hi guys, I brought you what I studied today.

There are a lot of flowers and plants in the environment. The main function of the flowers is reproduction. There are some parts of a flower. Let's learn about the parts of a flower. 

Let's learn about each parts.

Calyx/ Sepals

It's a cup shaped structure which is there to protect the tender part of the flower. Some flowers have colorful sepals which helps to attract insects. 

Corolla

The whorl of floral petals are called Corolla. They protects the inner part of the flower while attracting insects towards the flower. The flowers which bloom in the night are white in color and scented. 

Androecium

This is the male part of a flower. They consist o stamens which consists Anther and Filament. The function of the Androecium is to produce pollen grains for reproduction.

Gynoecium

This is the female part of a flower which is also known as Pistil. They consist of Ovary, Style and stigma. After pollination and fertilization, ovary becomes the fruit while the ovules become the seeds. 

Unisexual and bisexual flowers. 

If both the gynoecium and the androecium are present, they are known as Bisexual flowers. 

If only one of these parts are present, they are known as Uni-sexual flowers.

If only the Gynoecium is present, they are known as Pistillate flowers. 

 If only the Androecium is present, they are known as Staminate  flowers. 

Symmetry of flowers. 

If a flower can be divided in to two equal parts by cutting through any axis, they are known as Actinomorphic flowers.

If a flower can be divided in to two equal parts by cutting through only one axis, they are known as Zygomorphic flowers. 

If a flower can not be divided in to two equal parts by cutting through any axis, They are known as Assymetrical flowers.
