Reproductive Plant Parts
External plant structures such as leaves, stems, roots, flowers, fruits and seeds are known as plant organs. Each organ is an organized group of tissues that works together to perform a specific function. These structures can be divided into two groups: sexual reproductive and vegetative. Sexual reproductive parts produce seed; they include flower buds, flowers, fruit and seeds.
Flowers
Sexual reproduction is the sole function of flowers, often the showiest part of a plant. Flowers' beauty and fragrance evolved not to please humans but to attract pollinators (insects or birds), which are central to the reproductive process.
