The condition where the stamen are adhering to the carpels is called :

ASyngenesious

BSyncarpous

CGynandrous

DPolyandrous

Answer:

C. Gynandrous

Read Explanation:

  • In the gynandrous condition, the male reproductive parts (stamens) are fused or attached to the female reproductive parts (carpels or gynoecium).

  • This type of adhesion is distinct from cohesion, which is the fusion of stamens with each other.

  • Gynandrous flowers are commonly found in plants like orchids and Calotropis where the stamens and carpels form a single column or structure.

  • This fusion facilitates specialized pollination mechanisms in some flowering plants.
