Question

Is racemose inflorescence, an indeterminate type?


Open in App
Solution

Indeterminate inflorescence:

  1. Young blooms are at the top of the axis, while older blossoms are at the bottom, in an indeterminate inflorescence.
  2. As a result, the axis growth is not fixed.
  3. Corymbs, cones, and umbels are just a few examples.

Racemose inflorescence:

  1. The principal axis continues to develop indefinitely without bearing a flower at its tip.
  2. Mustard, wheat, and parsley are some examples.

Therefore, the racemose inflorescence is an indeterminate type of inflorescence.
