Flowers come in a range of sizes and shapes, but their anatomy, in general, is the same: sepals, petals, stamen, and carpel. A whorl, or circular positioning, is created by arranging these parts in a circular pattern.

Flowers come in various forms:

  1. Complete flower - The sepals, petals, stamens, and pistil all constitute a complete flower.
  2. Incomplete flower - An incomplete flower is one that lacks one or more of these structures.
