Question

Name any two plants in which multicarpellary syncarpous gynoecium is found.

Hint:

You need two conditions at once: more than one carpel, and those carpels fused together.

Answer 1

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
A gynoecium is called multicarpellary when a flower has more than one carpel, and syncarpous when those carpels are fused together into a single unit rather than staying separate.

Step 2: Name real examples.
Hibiscus (China rose) has a gynoecium made of five carpels fused into one, so it is multicarpellary and syncarpous.
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) also has several carpels fused into a single compound ovary, making it another clear example.

Final Answer:
Hibiscus and tomato are two common plants with a multicarpellary syncarpous gynoecium.
