flowering plant

A flowering plant is a plant that produces flowers. Flowers are the reproductive organs of flowering plants, and they are responsible for producing seeds.

Flowering plants are a diverse group of plants, and they come in all shapes and sizes. Some flowering plants are small and delicate, while others are large and impressive. Some flowering plants have a single colour, while others have multiple colours.

The different parts of a flower have different functions. The petals are the colourful part of the flower that attracts insects. The sepals are the green, leaf-like parts that protect the flower before it blooms. The stamens are the male parts of the flower, and they produce pollen. The pistil is the female part of the flower, and it contains the ovules, which will become seeds.

When an insect lands on a flower, it may pick up pollen from the stamens. When the insect lands on another flower, it may transfer the pollen to the pistil. This process of transferring pollen is called pollination.

Pollination is essential for flowering plants to reproduce. When pollen lands on the pistil, it fertilises the ovules, which then develop into seeds. The seeds will eventually fall to the ground and grow into new plants.
