Solution
The correct option is C The assertion is true but the reason is false
A flower is regarded as complete if it has all the four floral whorls, i.e., calyx, corolla, androgenic and gynoecium . If any of these whorl in missing the flower is described as incomplete. An incomplete flower can either be perfect, having the male as well as female sex organs or imperfect with either of the sexes missing. When both the essential organs are absent, the flower is spoken as neuter.
So the correct option is 'The assertion is true but the reason is false'.
