Flowers can be male, female or both. If the flowers have male and female structures they are said to be perfect. Imperfect flowers have either male or female reproductive structures. If a plant has male and female flowers on one plant it is said to be monoecious (which means "one house"). Squash and corn plants are monoecious. If the male and female flowers are on separate plants, they are said to be dioecious (which means "two houses"). Hollies, kiwi and ginko plants are dioecious.

Yes, tobacco plants (Nicotiana spp.) can have both male and female flowers. The flowers are typically bisexual, containing both stamens (male reproductive organs) and a pistil (female reproductive organ), allowing them to self-pollinate. However, some species may exhibit variations, with distinct male and female flowers on the same plant or separate plants. Overall, the reproductive structure can vary depending on the species and environmental conditions.
The maize plant is described as monoecious because it has separate male and female flowers on the same plant. The male flowers are found in the tassel at the top of the plant, while the female flowers are found in the ear or corn at lower nodes. This characteristic allows maize plants to self-pollinate and produce seeds.
If pollen is transferred from the male plant or a male part of a plant to a female plant or female plant part, then it is possible for fertilization to occur. In plants that have both male and female plants, they can actually self-pollinate. In nature, other mechanism for cross-pollination include transport via wind, on the fur of animals, and on insects.
"Dioecious" refers to a plant species that has separate male and female individuals, with each producing flowers of only one gender. This contrasts with monoecious species, which have both male and female flowers on the same plant.

Cucumber plants have separate male and female flowers. It is possible that your plant is currently only producing male flowers. This is common early in the growing season and female flowers should appear as the plant matures.
Cucumber plants produce separate male and female flowers. If there are no male flowers on your plant, it could be due to stress, inadequate pollination, or a young plant that hasn't yet developed male flowers.

Dioecious refers to a plant species that produces separate male and female flowers on different individual plants. This means that male and female reproductive organs are located on separate plants. A dioecious plant requires both male and female plants to produce seeds.
Plants with separate male and female flowers play a crucial role in pollination because they rely on external agents, like insects or wind, to transfer pollen between the male and female flowers. This ensures genetic diversity and successful reproduction in the plant species.
