Bracts serve several evolutionary purposes across different species:
A is a specialized, modified leaf associated with a plant's reproductive structures, usually located directly below a flower or inflorescence. While often mistaken for petals or normal foliage, bracts are distinct structures that serve critical protective and biological roles in plant development. Core Functions of Bracts
