Cleistogamy is found in _____________.
Cleistogamy is found in _____________.
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Commelina
Cleistogamy is the phenomenon, where flowers never open and in such flowers, only self-pollination occurs within the bud (unopened flower). Bisexual flowers which do not open at all are called cleistogamous. In such flowers, anthers and stigma lie close to each other. When the anthers dehisce in the flower buds, pollen grains come in contact with the stigma and pollination occurs. An example of a cleistogamous flower is Commelina.
Thus the correct answer is option B.
