Question

Identify the missing words (A, B, C and D) and select the correct option.

Family	Inflorescence	Flower	Stamens/tepals	Gynoecium
Fabaceae	A	B	10	D
Solanaceae	Solitary, axillary or cymose	Actino- morphic	5	Bicarpellary
Lilliaceae	Solitary, cymose or racemose	Actino- morphic	C	Tricarpellary

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

The gynoecium in Fabaceae is monocarpellary, with ovules on marginal placentation.

So, the correct answer is 'A - Racemose, B - Zygomorphic, C - 3 + 3, D - Monocarpellary'
