Template:Wiktionary The term perfect has several different uses, some stemming from its original meaning (complete, absolute) and some from the more recent development of its evaluative aspect (faultless, most excellent):
- For the mathematical concept see perfect number.
- For the philosophical concept see perfection (concept).
- For the grammatical concept see perfect aspect.
- For the legal concept see perfection (law).
- In botany and mycology, an organism is considered perfect if it is capable of sexual reproduction; otherwise it is imperfect.
- Fungi in the Division Deuteromycota (informally called the Fungi imperfecti) are so classified because sexual reproduction is unknown (or may not occur) in these species.
- A flower is called "perfect" (or synoecious) if it has both male and female reproductive parts. A perfect or hermaphroditic flower has both stamens and an ovary. If a flower has just male or just female parts it is termed "imperfect".
- In music:
- Perfect intervals include the perfect octave, perfect fifth, perfect fourth, and perfect unison.
- Perfect (Fairground Attraction song)
- Perfect (Smashing Pumpkins song)
