Question

what is carpel polymorphism? ​

Answer 1

Answer: Polymorphism may be defined as the “phenom­enon of existence of different physiological and morphological forms represented by an extensive range of variation within a single species”.

It may be defined in another way, poly­morphism means “the existence of indi­viduals (zooids) of a single species in more than one forms and functions.” Polymorphism is due to the division of labour, diversifica­tion of forms and specialization. Two general types of interactions, viz., co-operation and disoperation are exhibited by the members of an animal association.

In the colonial forms, disoperation ceases gradually and is replaced by co-operation. Finally the whole colony appears as a single individual, and the zooids function collectively for the inter­est of the colony (Barrington 1979).

Hey mate

Here is your answer

as to her theory of carpel polymorphism, which attempted to explain the variations she observed in plant carpel and gynoecium morphology. In her theory of carpel polymorphism, Saunders believed that each vascular trace (strand of fluid-filled tissue) in a gynoecium was associated with a separate carpel
