Solution

The correct option is B Actinomorphic
  1. Zygomorphic flowers are the flowers that have bilateral structure i.e., it can divide into two halves from only one plane.ex-pea, gulmohar.
  2. Actinomorphic plants are divided into two halves from any plane and are known as radial symmetry.ex-mustard ,datura.
  3. The flower is called cyclic when whorls of flower grow from a common point (consider one whorl).
So the correct option is "Actinomorphic".
