differentiate between petals and petaloid sepals(any 5 points)
Answers
Petals are the brightly coloured accessory whorls of a flower which helps in reproduction by attracting insects for pollination.
the calyx (sepals) and corolla (petals) together join to form an undifferentiated perianth. if the perianth is colourful like the petals lt is called a petaloid.
Petal is the non-essential whorls that are brightly coloured to attract insects for pollination.
Petaloid is when the perianth is non-green ie when petals and sepals appear to be undiffrerentiated.
A petal is an individual part of the corolla, they are usually non-green and are responsible for the attraction of pollinating agents. In certain conditions the calyx and corolla are fused to form a new whorl called the perianth, with its individual components called tepals.
A non-green perianth resembling petals is called a petaloid.
Both petals and petaloids serve an identical function of increasing the chances of pollination. These both attract the insects with their bright colours.
