Reproduction in Organisms

Solution:

In flowering plants, the unisexual male flower is staminate, i.e., bearing stamens, while the female flower is pistillate i.e., bearing pistils. In some flowering plants, both male and female may be present on same individual (monoecious) or on separate individuals (dioecious).
