Solve this:
55. Inflorescence, which begins as a dichasial cyme and ends in a monochasial cyme, is called
(1) Cyathium (2) Biparous
(3) Verticillaster (4) Thyrsus
Dear student
Please refer the solution below for the said query
The correct option is (3).
The verticillaster inflorescence begins as a dichasial cyme and ends in a monochasial cyme.
In case of the monochasial cyme, the main axis ends in a flower. It then produces a single lateral branch at a time that terminates into flower. This branch again produces single lateral branch at a time which again terminates into flower and so on.
In case of the the dichasial cyme, the peduncle ends by producing a terminal flower. This peduncle then forms two lateral branches each of which terminates in a flower.
Hope this information clears your doubt about the topic.
Regards
