A perfect flower must have all the following EXCEPT.....?
An anther is the pollen-bearing part of the stamen. An ovary is the ovule-bearing lower part of a pistil that ripens into a fruit. A plant does not need all it%26#039;s fruits to survive so it is probably this one. A sepal is one of the separate, usually green parts forming the calyx of a flower. An ovule is a minute structure in seed plants, containing the embryo sac and surrounded by the nucellus, that develops into a seed after fertilization.





In some species, unisexual (male or female) flowers are produced on separate plants. So a %26quot;male%26quot; plant would not need an ovary. Some plants have both male and female parts on one plant but other species have just the male or just the female.





I could be wrong. I%26#039;m not 100% sure. Did they pass your test back with the answer marked wrong but the teacher didn%26#039;t write in the right answer but you need to know it for the final? If so, which one did you pick that was marked wrong?
