Answer 2

Answer:

Epipetalous condition of the androecium

Explanation:

• A floral formula is a simple device often used to describe morphological features of various floral parts with the help of certain standard symbols. These symbols, when combined, constitute the so-called- floral formula for a particular flower or a particular plant family.

• Based on the floral formula, a floral diagram- graphic form is drawn that provides information on the characteristics of floral organs, their relationships and symmetry.

• The symbol of C5 connected to A5 stands for the epipetalous condition of the androecium when stamens are joined together with petals (C for corolla).

• So while drawing the floral diagram, the stamens are linked with petals with the same radial lines.

• Such an epipetalous condition is the characteristic feature of the large family-Solanaceae, commonly called as potato family where stamens are fused with petals and inserted into the corolla tube.
