What is Flower

A flower is a part of the plants called angiosperms that holds the plant's reproductive organs. They are formed from buds. The flower is attached to the tip of a stem Flowering plants are thought to evolved around 135 million ago

Sepal- Calyx

Sepal a leaf like part - outermost of the four groups of flower parts. The sepals of a flower are collectively called the calyx and act as a protective covering of the inner flower parts in the bud stage.
Sepals are usually green, but in some flowers (e.g. lily and orchid) they are the same color as the petals In some groups of plants (e.g., the marsh marigold and the anemone) they are absent.

The sepals are sometimes fused into a tube around the base of the petals, as in the mint family.

Petal - Corolla

Corolla is the collective term for petals of a flower.

The corolla constitutes the second whorl of the flower. It is composed of petals.

The petals are brightly coloured thus making the flowers conspicuous, showy and attractive. In many cases the petals are scented. The corolla helps in attracting insects for pollination.
In the corolla, the petals may be either free from one another or they may be united. The lower portion is called the corolla tube. The upper portion is often lobed, the number of lobes indicating the number of petals in the corolla.

Stamen

The third floral whorl from outside in a flower is the male reproductive organ of the angiosperms.

The individual member of the androecium is called a stamen.

Each stamen consists a filament and an anther. An anther generally has two anther lobes joined to each other by a sterile tissue called connective. In some plants such as cotton, an anther has only one anther lobe. The anther with two lobes is known as dithecus, and that with one lobe monothecus.

Carpel

A carpel forms a building block of gynoecium. Carpellate flowers are those which have only a gynoecium but no androecium or male reproductive organ whereas staminate flowers are those which lack a gynoecium. Carpels receive pollen on the surface of the stigma. The pollen tube grows through the style to the ovule and delivers the sperms to the egg. Pericarp of the fruit is formed from gynoecium.

Receptacle and Peduncle

Receptacle: part of the flower to which the other parts are attached. It supports the flower It is shaped like a cup Besides protecting floral pieces also protects ovules from animals Peduncle : Links the flower to stem

Pollination

All plants produce flowers for the same reason: to make seeds so another plant can grow

Pollination is a process of reproduction of plants

In this process living beings like honey bee, water, wind, mammals, insects etc carry the pollen grains from stamen and deposit it in pistil
