The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the matches provided and determine whether each flower is correctly classified based on its symmetry. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Flower Symmetry Types**: - **Actinomorphic Flowers**: These flowers can be divided into two equal halves along multiple planes. Examples include Datura. - **Zygomorphic Flowers**: These flowers can only be divided into two equal halves along one specific plane. Examples include Gulmohur. - **Asymmetric Flowers**: These flowers cannot be divided into equal halves along any plane. An example is Cassia. 2. **Evaluate Each Match**: - **Datura - Actinomorphic Flower**: This match is **correct**. Datura flowers can be divided into equal halves along multiple axes. - **Canna - Zygomorphic Flower**: This match is **incorrect**. Canna flowers are actually asymmetric, not zygomorphic. - **Gulmohur - Zygomorphic Flower**: This match is **correct**. Gulmohur flowers can be divided into equal halves along one specific axis. - **Cassia - Asymmetric Flower**: This match is **incorrect**. Cassia flowers are actually zygomorphic, not asymmetric. 3. **Conclusion**: - The correct matches are: - Datura - Actinomorphic Flower (Correct) - Gulmohur - Zygomorphic Flower (Correct) - The incorrect matches are: - Canna - Zygomorphic Flower (Incorrect) - Cassia - Asymmetric Flower (Incorrect) ### Final Answer: The correct matches are Datura (Actinomorphic flower) and Gulmohur (Zygomorphic flower).
