Question

Match List-I with List-II :

List-I	List-II
A. Vexillary aestivation	I. Brinjal
B. Epipetalous stamens	II. Peach
C. Epiphyllous stamens	III. Pea
D. Perigynous flower	IV. Lily

Choose the correct answer from the options given below

• A. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
• B. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
• C. A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV
• D. A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Here are the correct matches:

• A. Vexillary aestivation - II. Pea: Vexillary aestivation is a type of floral arrangement found in the pea family (Fabaceae), where the standard petal (vexillum) overlaps the other petals.
• B. Epipetalous stamens - I. Brinjal: In epipetalous stamens, the stamens are attached to the petals, seen in Brinjal flowers.
• C. Epipetalous stamens - IV. Lily: Similarly, epipetalous stamens are also seen in Lily flowers.
• D. Perigynous flower - III. Peach: A perigynous flower, like in peaches, has the ovary located in the center surrounded by the other floral parts.

Therefore, the correct option is (1), although there seems to be an error in the question as C is repeated twice in List I.
