What is reproduction in plants?

Reproduction is the process by which plants produce new plants of their own kind. It can happen through seeds (sexual reproduction) or through parts like stem, root, or leaf (asexual reproduction).

Card 2Parts of a Flower

Name the four main parts of a flower.

Answer

The four main parts of a flower are: Sepals, Petals, Stamen (male part), and Pistil (female part).

Card 3Parts of a Flower
