Which are the reproductive parts of an angiosperm flower? anther and ovary sepal and anther ovary and stigma sepal and stigma
A typical flower has four main parts, or whorls: the calyx (sepals), corolla (petals), androecium (male reproductive structure), and gynoecium (female reproductive structure). Angiosperms that contain both male and female gametophytes within the same flower are called complete and are considered to be androgynous or hermaphroditic. Angiosperms that contain only male or only female gametophytes are considered to be incomplete and are either staminate (contain only male structures) or carpellate (contain only female structures) flowers. Microspores develop in the microsporangium and form mature pollen grains (male gametophytes), which are then used to fertilize female gametophytes. During megasporogenesis, four megaspores are produced with one surviving; during megagametogenesism, the surviving megaspore undergoes mitosis to form an embryo sac (female gametophyte). The sperm, guided by the synergid cells, migrates to the ovary to complete fertilization; the diploid zygote develops into the embryo, while the fertilized ovule forms the other tissues of the seed.

so it would be anther and ovary?
no ovary's are what you have plants dont have them
@roman_princess
oh okay thank you
its sepal and anther
@roman_princess @sethRB26DETT Plants have ovaries, just like plants have sperm. The stigma and the ovary are both female parts and the anthers the male parts. No, sepals have nothing to do with the reproductive parts of the flower. Sepals are typically green and are petal like structures that cover the flower before emerging and blooming. The are attached to the plant beneath the petals, but can turn the same color as the petals (like in lilies) or be fused to the petals. Depending on exactly what happens to them the may be called tepals or other names.
