This is correct, if you discount the fact that many insects which pollinate plants are attracted to them by the petals.
The flower is the reproductive unit of a plant. The petals in a flower help in reproduction in one way. The petals are generally brightly colored and attract insects and bees for pollination. after pollination, fertilization occurs which results in the formation of zygote and eventually a fruit with seeds, i.e, reproduction occurs.
The calyx (which the sepals are the outer part of) protects the bud before it opens. The sepal allows the calyx to open and provides rigid support for the petals and reproductive organs of the flower.
The basic function of the petal is to attract insects and mammals to the flower for pollination; to a certain degree they also offer a small amount of protection to the reproductive structures. Some petals play a secondary roll providing a landing platform for pollinators (mainly insects).The petals are also called the inflorescence of the the flower.In Dicotyledonous flowers the petals are protected when young by the calyx.In Dicotyledonous plants the flowers either have petals in multiples of 4 or 5 (eg. 4, 8, 12 or 5, 10, 15 etc.).In Monocotyledonous plants the flower have petals in multiples of 3 (eg. 3, 6, 9 etc.).Some petals are brightly coloured and are pleasant for humans to look at.Flowers that sometimes appear drab to humans are patterned in ways that are visible to animals and insects, but not us - they may contain pigments and patterns that are only visible in utraviolet light (which some insects can see).Petals have no function in photosynthesis.
The stamen of a tomato flower is located inside the petals. The petals of the tomato flower are attached to the pedicel, or stem.
The stamen is the male reproductive part of the flower and it consists of the filament and the anther. The filament is a structure that attaches to the base of the flower and supports the anther. This structure produces pollen.
It attract insects and insects help in pollination
Petals are sterile, but they are still an organ of the flower.
The male reproductive organs of a flower are the stamens, which are generally in or close to the center of the flower, surrounded by petals.
The flower is the reproductive unit of a plant. The petals in a flower help in reproduction in one way.

The corolla is the collective term for the petals of a flower. Therefore the function is to attract insects for pollination.
The flower petals are bright in color so as to attract pollinators such as insects, birds, and animals to facilitate reproduction in plants.

no, they are part of the reproductive system of a flower and they can not die; just think of a hair. if a hair fell off of you it would not die.
