Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Among all other reproductive parts, carpels and pistils are the basic units of the gynoecium-the female part of a flower. These are related but still, there is some difference between carpel and pistil. Carpels are the fundamental units of the gynoecium and also may be free means distinct or fused means connate.
