Monoecious plants have both male and female reproductive organs on the same plant, while dioecious plants have separate male and female plants.
Example of a monoecious plant: Corn (Zea mays) - Corn plants have both male flowers (tassels) and female flowers (ears) on the same plant.
Example of a dioecious plant: Holly (Ilex aquifolium) - Holly plants have separate male and female plants, with male plants producing pollen and female plants producing berries.

Monoecious plants have both male and female reproductive structures on the same individual. This means that they can self-fertilize, although they may also cross-fertilize with other individuals. Examples of monoecious plants include corn, squash, and cucumber.
Dioecious plants have male and female reproductive structures on separate individuals. This means that they must cross-fertilize in order to produce seeds. Examples of dioecious plants include maple, willow, and holly.
