The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the characteristic features of certain flowers, we will analyze the given options based on the provided characteristics: pentamerous, actinomorphic flowers, bicarpellate ovary with oblique septa, and capsule or berry fruits. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Characteristics**: - The flowers are **pentamerous** (having parts in fives). - They are **actinomorphic** (symmetrical). - The ovary is **bicarpellate** (composed of two carpels). - The ovary has **oblique septa** (the partitioning within the ovary is slanted). - The fruits can be either **capsule or berry**. 2. **Evaluate the First Option - Brassicaceae**: - Brassicaceae family does have actinomorphic flowers, but it typically does not have oblique septa and does not primarily produce berry fruits. Therefore, this option is **incorrect**. 3. **Evaluate the Second Option - Solanaceae**: - The Solanaceae family has pentamerous flowers (five petals and sepals). - The flowers are actinomorphic. - The ovary is bicarpellate and syncarpous (fused carpels), with oblique septa present. - The fruits can be either capsules or berries (e.g., tomatoes, peppers). - Thus, this option is **correct**. 4. **Evaluate the Third Option - Liliaceae**: - Liliaceae family typically has a perianth (fused sepals and petals) and does not exhibit the epipetalous condition found in Solanaceae. The ovary is usually tricarpillary. Therefore, this option is **incorrect**. 5. **Evaluate the Fourth Option - Asteraceae**: - Asteraceae family does not match the characteristics provided, particularly regarding the ovary structure and fruit type. Therefore, this option is also **incorrect**. ### Conclusion: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Solanaceae** (Option 2), as it matches all the specified characteristics. ---
