• A. A-Racemose, B-Zygomorphic, C-3+3, D-Monocarpellary
• B. A-Racemose, B-Actinomorphic, C-5, D-Bicarpellary
• C. A-Cymose, B-Zygomorphic, C-3+3, D-Tricarpellary
• D. A-Cymose, B-Actinomorphic, C-5, D-Multicarpellary

Answer 1

The correct option is A A-Racemose, B-Zygomorphic, C-3+3, D-Monocarpellary

In family Fabaceae, the inflorescence is indeterminant or recemose, the flower is zygomorphic, with five petals-standard (large outer), wings (smaller pair inbetween) and keel (innermost smallest, partially fused). The gynoecium in Fabaceae is monocarpellary, with ovules on marginal placentation.

The number of stamens in Liliaceae are 6 arranged in two whorls of 3 each or 3+3 arrangement. The anthers are monosacculate.
