The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the number of elements in the flower structure of the family Papilionaceae (Fabaceae), we need to analyze the components of the flower petals. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Flower Structure**: In the Papilionaceae family, the flower typically consists of five petals that are arranged in a specific manner. 2. **Recognize the Three Elements**: The five petals are categorized into three distinct elements: - **Standard (Vexillum)**: This is the largest petal and is usually positioned at the top. There is only **one** standard petal. - **Wings (Alae)**: These are two smaller petals located on either side of the standard petal. There are **two** wing petals. - **Keel (Carina)**: This consists of two petals that are fused together, forming a structure that resembles a boat. There are **two** keel petals. 3. **Count the Total Elements**: - Standard: 1 - Wings: 2 - Keel: 2 (counted as one unit since they are fused) Therefore, the total number of petals is 5, which can be broken down as: - 1 (Standard) + 2 (Wings) + 2 (Keel) = 5 petals. 4. **Conclusion**: The number of elements participating in the unique association of petals in the Papilionaceae family is three: one standard, two wings, and two keels. ### Final Answer: The number of these elements is **three**: Standard (1), Wings (2), and Keel (2). ---

Oxidation number is the charge which an atom of an element has in its ion or appears to have when present in the combined state. It is also called oxidation state. Oxidation number of any atom in the elementary state is zero. Oxidation number of a monoatomic ion is equal to the charge on it. In compounds of metals with non metals, metals have positive oxidation number while non metals have negative oxidation numbers. In compounds of two difference elements, the more electronegative element has negative oxidation number whereas the other has positive oxidation number. In complex ions, the sum of the oxidation number of all the atoms is equal to the charge on the ion. If a compound contains two or more atoms of the same element, they may have same or different oxidation states according as their chemical bonding is same or different. A compound of Xe and F is found to have 53.3% Xe (atomic weight =133). Oxidation number of Xe in this compound is

Elementary Transformation of a matrix: The following operation on a matrix are called elementary operations (transformations) 1. The interchange of any two rows (or columns) 2. The multiplication of the elements of any row (or column) by any nonzero number 3. The addition to the elements of any row (or column) the corresponding elements of any other row (or column) multiplied by any number Echelon Form of matrix : A matrix A is said to be in echelon form if (i) every row of A which has all its elements 0, occurs below row, which has a non-zero elements (ii) the first non-zero element in each non –zero row is 1. (iii) The number of zeros before the first non zero elements in a row is less than the number of such zeros in the next now. [ A row of a matrix is said to be a zero row if all its elements are zero] Note: Rank of a matrix does not change by application of any elementary operations For example [(1,1,3),(0,1,2),(0,0,0)],[(1,1,3,6),(0,1,2,2),(0,0,0,0)] are echelon forms The number of non-zero rows in the echelon form of a matrix is defined as its RANK. For example we can reduce the matrix A=[(1,2,3),(2,4,7),(3,6,10)] into echelon form using following elementary row transformation. (i) R_2 to R_2 -2R_1 and R_3 to R_3 -3R_1 [(1,2,3),(0,0,1),(0,0,1)] (ii) R_2 to R_2 -2R_1 [(1,2,3),(0,0,1),(0,0,0)] This is the echelon form of matrix A Number of nonzero rows in the echelon form =2 rArr Rank of the matrix A is 2 Rank of the matrix [(1,1,1,-1),(1,2,4,4),(3,4,5,2)] is :
