Sepals collectively designated as _calyx_.

Petals collectively designated as _corolla_.

The ripened ovary comprises the fruit.

Ripened ovules of the ovary comprise the seed of the fruit.

A flower lacking either calyx, corolla, stamens, or pistil is an

incomplete flower. If the male and female flower parts occur in separate

flowers on the same tree the species is said to be _monoecious_. If the

male and female flowers occur on separate trees, the species is said to

be _dioecious_.
