No, chilli is not a zygomorphic flower.

Reason :

Chilli is not a zygomorphic flower. Actually it is an actinomorphic flower. It is because the flowers of chilli plant can be separated into 2 equal or same halves by any plane that passes through by the centre. So, chilly is radially symmetrical and hence it is actinomorphic flower and not a zygomorphic flower.

Examples of zygomorphic flowers includes : Bean, Pea, Gulmohur.

And examples of other actinomorphic flowers are : Mustard and Datura.

No, it is an actinomorphic flower.

EXPLANATION:

  • Chilli is an actinomorphic flower. Actinomorphic flowers are radially symmetrical and they form mirror images when bisected into two similar halves.
  • This occurs in more than one plane passing through the center.
  • But, in zygomorphic flowers, only one plane passing through center can divide it equally.
  • So, chilly is radially symmetrical and hence it is an actinomorphic flower and not a zygomorphic flower.
  • Some examples of zygomorphic flowers are Bean, Pea, and Gulmohur.
  • And, an examples of other actinomorphic flowers are Mustard and Datura.
