Flowering
The flowering plants (angiosperms) go through a phase of vegetative growth — producing more stems and leaves — and a flowering phase where they produce the organs for sexual reproduction.

Animal life cycles have meiosis followed immediately by gametogenesis. Gametes are produced directly by meiosis. Male gametes are sperm. Female gametes are eggs or ova.

Flower color is thought to indicate the nature of pollinator: red petals are thought to attract birds, yellow for bees, and white for moths. Wind pollinated flowers have reduced petals, such as oaks and grasses.

FLOWERS
Flowers have developed such a wide variety. That variety is often dependent on what kind of creature helps out with the pollination. If I am a big insect, I will be looking at plants with big flowers.

flower
A structure involved in sexual reproduction. It consists of the androecium (male organs) and gynoecium (female organs), surrounded by a corolla and a calyx. The male and female parts may or may not be in the same flower.
Flower: The part of an angiosperm containing the organs of reproduction (male stamen and female stigma as well as the ovary).

A chickadee, for example, carries one sunflower seed at a time from a feeder to a nearby branch, secures the seed to the branch between its feet, pecks it open, eats the contents, and repeats the process.

At first glance, the petal of a flower or the skin on the back of a human hand may seem smooth and seamless, as if they were composed of a single, indistinct substance.
There are several homeotic mutations in flowers where different parts replace others. For example, in one class of mutations, sepals develop where petals should and carpals develop where stamens should.
Transfer of pollen (pollination) from the anther of a flower to the stigma of the same flower or sometimes to that of a genetically identical flower (as of the same plant or clone).
Transfer of pollen (pollination) from the anther of the flower of one plant to the stigma of the flower of a genetically different plant.
You may have seen time-lapse images of flowers opening and cells dividing. But how much really changes from one minute to the next? These webcams allow you to gauge those biological activities in "real time".
If you mix a red (RR) flower with a white (WW) flower, what will the offspring's gene pair look like? If you said (RW) you are correct. What color with the flower be? Neither the red, nor the white is dominate.
A locus (plural: loci) is the location of a gene on a chromosome. The gene for red flowers and the gene for white flowers are two different alleles at the same locus.
