Step-by-step solution
In vexillary aestivation, the five petals are arranged in a descending imbricate manner and are observed in Fabaceae. Perianth is also called tepal. The fused sepals and petals are called as perianth and are observed in Liliaceae. False septum, also called replum which divides the unilocular ovary into bilocular and bilocular ovary into tetralocular ovary, is observed in mustard plant. Persistent sepals are observed in the Solanaceae family.
