Solution

Aestivation in flowers is defined as the arrangement of different parts of a flower on a floral bud before a flower gets opened.
Aestivation or summer sleep is a condition in which an animal is in a state of dormancy which is characterised by lower metabolism in an organism due to high temperature and arid conditions.
