Solution

The correct option is B Gamosepalous
A floral formula is the way to represent the structure of a flower using numbers, letters and various symbols, presenting morphological information about the flower in a short form. In a floral formula, gamosepalous (the number of sepals in the calyx) is symbolized by the letter "K". The degree of fusion of the sepals can be indicated by circling the sepal number.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
