Explanation
A flower is the reproductive organ of a plant. In a flower, calyx, corolla, androecium and gynoecium are present. The androecium is the male reproductive part, while the gynoecium is the female reproductive part. In the gynoecium, the pistil is present, which has three parts— ovary, style and stigma. Later, the ovary of the flower develops and takes the form of a fruit. ## Page 27
