Which plant classification describes having flowers with both male and female reproductive structures?

The classification that describes plants having both male and female reproductive structures within the same individual is monoecious. In monoecious species, you will find both staminate (male) flowers and pistillate (female) flowers on the same plant, allowing for self-pollination as well as cross-pollination with other plants. This adaptation can enhance reproductive success, especially in environments where pollinators are scarce.

In contrast, dioecious plants have separate male and female individuals, meaning that both male and female flowers are produced, but on different plants. Asexual reproduction relates to methods of propagation without the fusion of gametes, and it does not involve flowers or sexual structures. Polygamous plants have a mix of male, female, and hermaphroditic flowers but do not exclusively describe the presence of both male and female structures on the same plant, which is specifically characteristic of monoecious plants.
