Examine a few flowers of any cucurbit plant and try to identify the staminate and pistillate flowers. Do you know any other plant that bears unisexual flowers?

Cucurbit has unisexual flowers carrying either male or female reproductive organs. Flowers with male reproductive organs (stamen) are termed as staminate flowers. while those carrying only carpel, are termed as pistillate flowers. Other examples of unisexual flowers are papaya, watermelon, maize etc.
