  1. angiosperm

    Angiosperms are a group of plants that produce flowers and have seeds that are enclosed within a protective fruit. They are the most diverse and widespread group of plants, with over 300,000 species ranging from roses, sunflowers, and oak trees to wheat, rice, and corn. Angiosperms are unique because their seeds develop from fertilized ovules in the plant's ovary, which later develops into a fruit. They play an essential role in most ecosystems and agricultural systems due to their ability to adapt to a wide range of habitats.
