Question

The characteristics of poaceae are

• A. Pedicellate, bracteate, bisexual, tetramerous, actinomorphic, complete and superior ovary
• B. Pedicellate, bracteate, bisexual, pentamerous, zygomorphic, complete and superior ovary
• C. Sessile, bracteate, bracteolate, incomplete uni-or bisexual, perianth modified into lodicules, stamens three, syncarpous, superior ovary and feathery stigma
• D. Bracteate, bracteolate, bisexual, pentamarous, actinomorphic, complete and superior ovary
• E. Bacteate, unisexual, actinomorphic, stamens five, inferior ovary

Answer 1

The correct option is C Sessile, bracteate, bracteolate, incomplete uni-or bisexual, perianth modified into lodicules, stamens three, syncarpous, superior ovary and feathery stigma

• Poaceae or Gramineae are an economically important family of flowering plants.
• In Poaceae, the flowers are sessile (without stalk), bracteate (have bracts), bracteolate (have bracteoles), incomplete (flower lacking one or more of the normal flower parts), bisexual or unisexual (Maize), perianth is represented by membranous scales called lodicules, stamens are 3 and they are polyandrous (free), syncarpous (fused) and superior ovary (ovary attached to the receptacle above the attachment of other floral parts), stigmas are 2 and they are feathery.
  

So, the correct answer is 'Sessile, bracteate, bracteolate, incomplete unisexual or bisexual, perianth modified into lodicules, stamens three, syncarpous, superior ovary and feathery stigma'.
