Question

The given symbols of floral parts indicate the condition of

• A. Zygomorphic flower, epipetalous, epiphyllous, superior ovary
• B. Actinomorphic flower, epiphyllous, epipetalous, inferior ovary
• C. Zygomorphic flower, epiphyllous, epipetalous, superior ovary
• D. Actinomorphic flower, epipetalous, epiphyllous, inferior ovary

Answer 1

The correct option is A Zygomorphic flower, epipetalous, epiphyllous, superior ovary

A floral formula is a means to represent the structure of a flower using numbers, letters and various symbols. The percentage sign is used to describe the symmetry of the flower. The flower is zygomorphic which means that the flower can be divided in only one plane to get equal halves. The petals of the corolla are associated with the stamens. This condition is known as epipetalous. The tepals of the perianth are associated with the stamens. This condition is known as epiphyllous. The line below the G represents superior ovary.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
