Q.106) Zygomorphic flowers are those that have bilateral symmetry, meaning they can be divided into two identical halves along only one plane.

Among the options:

  • Chilli (Capsicum) has a regular or actinomorphic flower (radial symmetry), not zygomorphic.
  • Petunia and Datura also have actinomorphic flowers, meaning they exhibit radial symmetry.
  • Pea flowers (Pisum sativum) are zygomorphic because they have bilateral symmetry, where only one plane divides them into symmetrical halves.

Hence, the correct answer is option (4): Pea.
