The part of a plant responsible for reproduction is the flower. Flowers contain the reproductive structures, with the male parts, known as stamens, producing pollen, and the female parts, called carpels, housing the ovary where seeds develop after fertilization. Flowers attract pollinators such as bees, birds, and butterflies, which facilitate the transfer of pollen from one flower to another. Once fertilized, the ovary develops into fruit, which encases the seeds and aids in their dispersal. This reproductive strategy is essential for the continuation of many plant species.
