Answer
Sepals and petals are key components of Jussieu's classification system, which categorizes plants based on their floral characteristics. This system groups plants based on the number, arrangement, and structure of their sepals and petals, along with other floral parts. By examining these features, scientists can identify and classify different plant species, allowing for a deeper understanding of plant diversity and relationships within the plant kingdom.
