Sexual Reproduction in Plants

Reproduction in plants takes place sexually and asexually as well. But the majority of the flowering plants reproduce sexually. The flower is the reproductive part of a plant i.e., both male and female gametes are produced by flowers. Sexual reproduction in plants takes place in flowers. The complete flower typically consists of four parts:

Petals

Sepals

Stamen (male reproductive part)

Pistil/Carpel (female reproductive part)

Stamen (male reproductive part) consists of anther and filament.

The anther is a sac-like structure that produces and stores pollen.

The filament supports the anther.

Pistil (female reproductive part) comprises of three parts- stigma, style, and ovary.

Stigma is the top most part of a flower.

The style is the long tube which connects stigma to the ovary.

The ovary contains a lot of ovules. It is the part of the plant where the seed formation takes place.

A flower may consist of either stamen or pistil or both. Based on this, a flower can be either unisexual or bisexual. A bisexual flower is composed of all the four parts mentioned above, e.g. Rose, China rose. Whereas, plants like papaya and cucumber produce only unisexual flowers.

Sasai: tell me about how they reproduce not what are the parts and their works.
PalakGusain: Sexual reproduction in flowering plants involves the production of male and female gametes, the transfer of the male gametes to the female ovules in a process called pollination. After pollination occurs, fertilization happens and the ovules grow into seeds within a fruit.
