The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the condition of four stamens, two short and two long, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Question**: We need to identify the term that describes a flower with four stamens, where two are short and two are long. 2. **Reviewing the Options**: The options provided are: - Tetradynamous - Diadelphous - Diadenamous - Diplostemonous 3. **Analyzing Tetradynamous**: - The tetradynamous condition consists of six stamens, where typically four are long and two are short. Since the question specifies only four stamens, this option is incorrect. 4. **Analyzing Diadelphous**: - Diadelphous refers to stamens that are united into two bundles. This does not match our condition of having two short and two long stamens, so this option is also incorrect. 5. **Analyzing Diadenamous**: - Diadenamous is a condition where there are four stamens, with two being short and two being long. This matches the description given in the question, making this option correct. 6. **Analyzing Diplostemonous**: - Diplostemonous refers to a condition where stamens are arranged in two whorls, alternating with the petals. This does not fit our description, so this option is incorrect. 7. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is **Diadenamous**, as it accurately describes the condition of having four stamens, with two short and two long. ### Final Answer: The condition described is called **Diadenamous**.
