The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Spadix**: - Spadix is a type of inflorescence characterized by a thick, fleshy stem that bears small flowers closely arranged along its length. 2. **Identifying Plant Groups**: - Inflorescences can be categorized into different types based on the arrangement of flowers. The two main groups of flowering plants are Monocots and Dicots. 3. **Monocots vs. Dicots**: - Monocots (monocotyledons) typically have simpler flower arrangements and structures. They often exhibit inflorescences like the spadix. - Dicots (dicotyledons) have more complex flower arrangements, such as racemose and cymose types, which do not include spadix. 4. **Conclusion**: - Based on the characteristics of the spadix and the classification of flowering plants, it can be concluded that spadix is an inflorescence found only in Monocots. ### Final Answer: Spadix is an inflorescence found only in Monocots. ---
