Which one of the following organisms is correctly matched with its three characteristics?
Options
- APea : C 3 pathway, endospermic seed, vexillary aestivation
- BTomato : twisted aestivation, axile placentation, berry
- COnion : bulb, imbricate aestivation, axile placentation
- DMaize : C 3 pathway,closed vascular bundles scutellum
Correct answer
C. Onion : bulb, imbricate aestivation, axile placentation
Step-by-step solution
Pea is an example of having non-endospermic seed. Tomato flower has valvate aestivation where the margins of adjacent petals or sepals touch each other without overlapping. In maize, the C4 pathway is observed. Onion forms bulb with imbricate aestivation and axile placentation.
