Answer 1

Flower and its different parts:

1. A flower is made up of four different parts namely sepals, petals, stamens and carpel which are arranged in four whorls.
   • Sepals: Sepals are the outermost whorl of a flower or calyx of tiny green-leaf like structures.
   • Petals: Petals are the second whorl or corolla that are arranged next to the calyx.
   • Stamens: Stamens are the male reproductive part of a flower consisting of two main parts— hair-like filaments and a broad sac-like anther at its tip.
   • Carpel: Carpel is the female reproductive part of a plant that consists of three parts- an ovary at the base, a narrow thread-like style, and a terminal stigma.

Final answer:

Anther and filament form the stamens which is the male reproductive part. Stigma, style and ovary constitute the carpel which is the female reproductive part.
