Question

Are bananas dioecious?

Answer 1

Bananas:

1. Bananas are monocotyledonous angiosperms that belong to the family Musaceae of the order Zingiberales.
2. Bananas are categorized as berries since the fruit develops from a single ovary of an individual flower.
3. Their epicarp takes the form of a peel, the mesocarp is fleshy, and the endocarp is thin.
4. A dioecious plant has male and female flowers present on different plants.
5. Example: papaya.
6. Bananas are not dioecious. They are monoecious plants that produce unisexual (containing both male and female parts) flowers.
