| Read the assertion and reason carefully: |
| Assertion : Actinomorphic flowers show radial symmetry. |
| Reason : Zygomorphic flowers have bilateral symmetry. |
A) If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion
B) If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion
C) If the assertion is true but the reason is false
D) If both the assertion and reason are false
E) If the assertion is false but reason is true
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
A cyclic flower which can be divided into two equal vertical halves or mirror images by any vertical plane is said to be actinomorphic. The actinomorphic flower has, therefore special symmetry. A flower which can be divided into two equal vertical halves by one plane only, is termed as zygomorphic. A zygomorphic flower has bilateral symmetry.
