उत्तर
It is dioecious producing staminate flowers on one tree and pistillate flowers on another tree.
Explanation:
Date palm is a dioecious plant, meaning male and female flowers are borne on separate individual plants. Thus, staminate (male) flowers are on one tree and pistillate (female) flowers are on another tree, not both on the same plant or on monoecious plants. This ensures cross-pollination between different trees.
