placentae are found on the wall of a compound ovary ex. Cucumber
Parietal -
43
placentae are located on the wall of a single ovary. A single ovary has one chamber or locule. ex. String beans
Marginal -
44
placentae with a single ovule is found more or less at the base of the ovary ex. Chrysanthemums
Basal -
45
- flower clusters
INFLORESCENCE
46
has elongated axis with sessile (without pedicel florets. ex. Bottle brush & Pancit-pancita
Spike
47
- elongated axis is unbranched; pedicellate
Racime
48
- flowers are provided with stalks or pedicels of equal lengths. ex. aloe vera and Golden SHower
Pedicellate
49
- elongated axis is branched. flowers are pedicellate, opening all at the same time. ex. Rice and Tigbi
