Answer #1

orchids, tulips, lilies, and magnolias are the example of diverse flower forms and flowering plants is also called angiosperms and are most diverse group of plants.

Unique to angiosperm is the use of pollinators such as birds and bees.Angiosperns are very important due to their abundance and impact on almost every habitat on earth. Due to their diverse morphology they can range from the small to massive, aquatic to mountainous, grass to trees and everything in between.

Adaptation for the organism :- Angiosperms produce their gametes in separate organs which are usually housed in a flower and surrounding tissues of the ovary thicken developing into a fruit that will protect the seed .The closed carpel of angiosperms also allows adaptation to specialized pollination syndromes and controls. This helps to prevent self-fertilization and maintaining increased diversity. Once the ovary is fertilized, the carpel and some surrounding tissues develop into a fruit. Athough some angiosperms are wind pollinated most of that  evolved with a vector mechanism for pollination.
