Flowers are zygomorphic in
A
$Datura$
B
Mustard
C
Gulmohur
D
Tomato
Detailed Solution
A zygomorphic flower has bilateral symmetry: it can be divided into two similar halves only in one particular vertical plane.
Examples are pea, gulmohur, bean and $Cassia$.
An actinomorphic flower has radial symmetry and can be divided into two equal halves in any radial plane passing through the centre.
$Datura$, mustard and tomato (like chilli) have actinomorphic flowers.
Hence the flowers are zygomorphic in gulmohur.
