Vedclass · Answer

(A) In botany, flowers are classified based on their symmetry: $1$. Actinomorphic (radial symmetry): Flowers can be divided into two equal radial halves in any radial plane passing through the center, e.g., $Datura$, $Chilli$, $Mustard$. $2$. Zygomorphic (bilateral symmetry): Flowers can be divided into two similar halves only in one particular vertical plane, e.g., $Pea$, $Bean$, $Cassia$, $Gulmohur$. $3$. Asymmetric (irregular): Flowers cannot be divided into two similar halves by any vertical plane passing through the center, e.g., $Canna$. Therefore, $Canna$ is the correct example of an asymmetric flower.
