Question

An aspect of flower shown in floral formula but not in floral diagram is

• A. Position of ovary
• B. Floral symmetry
• C. Aestivation
• D. Cohension of floral parts

Answer 1

The correct option is A Position of ovary

A floral diagram is the depiction of the flower in the vertical section. It shows floral symmetry (actinomorphic or zygomorphic), ebracteate and bracteate nature of the flower, aestivation of calyx and corolla, number of floral cycles, cohesion and adhesion of floral parts, complete and incomplete flower, perfect and imperfect flower. The floral diagram does not show the position of the ovary. It is shown by making bars in the floral formula.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Position of ovary'.
