The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the condition with the united calyx in a flower, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Terms**: - The calyx is the collective term for the sepals of a flower, which are typically green and protect the flower bud before it blooms. - The term "united calyx" refers to sepals that are fused together rather than being separate. 2. **Identifying the Correct Term**: - The question asks specifically for the term that describes the condition of united calyx. - The options provided include: - Gamocephalus - Polycephalus - Two terms related to Petalus (which are not relevant to calyx). 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Gamocephalus**: This term suggests a condition where parts are united (from "gamo-" meaning united). - **Polycephalus**: This term indicates multiple heads or parts, which does not apply to the united condition. - The last two options related to Petalus are irrelevant as they pertain to petals, not sepals. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since the question specifically asks for the united calyx, the correct answer is **Gamocephalus**. This term indicates that the sepals (calyx) are fused together. ### Final Answer: The condition with the united calyx in a flower is called **Gamocephalus**. ---
