Question

how to determine whether the ovary is superior or inferior

Answer 1

By looking at the position of the ovary in the flower, one can find out whether the ovary is inferior or superior.

• Superior ovary flowers are those flowers in which the gynoecium is present at the highest position, while other floral parts are arranged below it.
• Inferior ovary flowers are those flowers in which the ovary is present inferior to the petals and sepals.
