5.Morphology of Flowering Plants
medium
In China rose the flowers are
A
zygomorphic, hypogynous with imbricate aestivation
B
zygomorphic, epigynous with twisted aestivation
C
actinomorphic, hypogynous with twisted aestivation
D
actinomorphic, epigynous with valvate aestivation
(NEET-2013)
Solution
(c) : In China rose the flowers are actinomorphic $i.e.$, it can be divided into two equal radial halves in any radial plane passing through the centre? they are hypogynous, $i.e.$, the gynoecium occupies the highest position, while the other parts are situated below it; they have twisted aestivation $i.e.$, one margin of petal overlaps that of the next one and so on.
