What is a bisexual flower?

What is a bisexual flower?

Options

  1. AA flower with only stamens
  2. BA flower with only pistils
  3. CA flower with both stamens and pistils
  4. DA flower with no reproductive organs

Correct answer

C. A flower with both stamens and pistils

Step-by-step solution

The flower is the reproductive unit in the angiosperms. It is meant for sexual reproduction. A typical flower has four different kinds of whorls arranged successively on the swollen end of the stalk or pedicel, called thalamus or receptacle. These are calyx, corolla, androecium and gynoecium. Calyx and corolla are accessory organs, while androecium and gynoecium are reproductive organs. In some flowers like lily, the calyx and corolla are not distinct and are termed as perianth. When a flower has both androecium and gynoecium, it is bisexual. A flower having either only stamens or only carpels is unisexual.
