. What do you mean by a complete and incomplete flower

Best Answer

Explanation-

Complete flower:

• A complete flower is the one which has all four whorls: calyx, corolla, androecium and gynoecium e.g. Rose.
• As this flower contains both male and female reproductive organs, it can produce both male and female gamete.
• They do not depend on pollinators for pollination.

Incomplete flower:

• These flowers have three whorls: calyx, corolla and either androecium or gynoecium.
• These flowers can only produce one type of gamete ( male/female).
• Example: Begonia.

Final Answer- Flowers having calyx, corolla, stamen and pistil are complete flowers.

Flowers having calyx, corolla and androecium/gynoecium are incomplete flowers.
