The flower with a stalk is:
a. Pedicellate
b. Petiolate
c. Sessile
d. Subsessile
Solution
The plants attract insects, animals, and human beings in the direction of them with the help of these flowers. However, only a complete flower can attract another being. A flower to become complete needs the help of a stalk. It grasps individual parts of the flower in a place. The stem is part of the plant. The stem is normally divided into nodes.
Complete answer:
Option A: Pedicellate-
The presence of the pedice flowers is called the term in pedicellate. A pedicel of flower which bears a stalk is called a pedicellate flower. For example, Hibiscus rose. A flower that is borne directly on the stem is called a sessile flower. It's devoid of a stem. For example are sunflower florets, Sisyrinchium.
Option B: Petiolate-
A stalk that attaches a leaf to the plant stem is called Petiole. The leaves, the petiole may be long or the same leaves the leaf stalk is absent. For example, is the broomrape family Orobanchaceae. The leaves are always sessile. The same other plant group speedwell genus vernonia sessile leaves are different species that occur. And petiolate sessile leaves are also different species.
Option C: Sessile-
A sessility character is plant parts that have no stalk. The peduncle is directly borne in the plant part of the flower, stem, and leaves. Most of the leaves present of monocotyledons lack petioles. The term sessility is also used in mycology. A describes a fungal fruit body that is attached or seated directly on the surface of the substrate. Lacking a supporting type or pedicel other examples of the sessile flower include Achyranthes, Saffron.
Option D: Subsessile-
The parts of the plants which are not completely sessile can be described as subsessile.
Hence, the correct answer is option (A).
Note: The word pedicel is referred to as the structure connecting a single flower to its fluorescence. If there is an absence of a pedicel, the flowers are said to be sessile. Sometimes the pedicel is also a function of the stem of the fluorescence. The peduncle is the name given to the stem or branch from the main stem of the fluorescence that embraces a group of pedicels. It may be connected with a bract or bracts.
