The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion The assertion states that "Rhipidium is a type of helicoid uniparous cyme." - **Definition**: Rhipidium is indeed a type of inflorescence where flowers are arranged in a single plane and can suppress each other. - **Helicoid Uniparous Cyme**: This type of inflorescence has flowers originating from one side of the main axis, forming a coiled structure. **Conclusion**: The assertion is **false** because Rhipidium does not fit the definition of a helicoid uniparous cyme. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason The reason states that "Sorosis fruit is an aggregated fruit." - **Definition of Sorosis**: Sorosis is a type of fruit that is formed from a cluster of flowers (multiple flowers) and is characterized by a fleshy structure. A common example is pineapple. - **Definition of Aggregated Fruit**: Aggregated fruits are formed from multiple ovaries of a single flower. An example is raspberry. **Conclusion**: The reason is also **false** because sorosis is not an aggregated fruit; it is a composite fruit formed from multiple flowers. ### Step 3: Determine the Relationship Since both the assertion and the reason are false, we can conclude that they are not related to each other. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are false. Therefore, the correct answer is Option 4: Both assertion and reason are wrong. ---
