what is the difference b/w syncarpous and apocarpous?

Hi Ps200693,

 

Syncarpous is a gynoecium in which more than one carpels are present fused together. For example- Papaver.

Apocarpous is a gynoecium in which more than one carpels are present in a free condition. For example- Michelia

 

Hope this answer helps,

All the best!
