Match List I (Types of Stamens) with List II (Example). List I: A. Monoadelphous; B. Diadelphous; C. Polyadelphous; D. Epiphyllous. List II: I. Citrus; II. Pea; III. Lily; IV. China-rose. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Monoadelphous = China-rose (IV); Diadelphous = Pea (9+1) (II); Polyadelphous = Citrus (I); Epiphyllous = Lily (attached to perianth) (III)! Match: A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III!
The stamens may be united into one bunch or one bundle (monoadelphous) as in China rose, or into two bundles (diadelphous) as in pea, or into more than two bundles (polyadelphous) as in citrus.
When stamens are attached to the perianth, as in the flowers of lily, they are described as epiphyllous (in contrast to epipetalous when attached to petals, as in brinjal).
A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-III correctly represents all conditions, matching Option (3).
Diagnose every choice: Know exactly why the right option works and why distractors fail.
