Consider a plant with a compound umbel inflorescence. If each ray of the main umbel bears a small, condensed cyme instead of a single flower, how would this modified inflorescence be BEST classified, and what advantage might this structure confer?

In a hypothetical plant species, the inflorescence exhibits a unique combination of features: a condensed cymose head surrounded by an involucre of brightly colored bracts that mimic petals. The individual flowers within the head are inconspicuous. Which existing inflorescence type does this MOST closely resemble, and what evolutionary advantage might this unique structure offer?

A researcher observes an inflorescence where the main axis terminates in a flower, and further growth occurs through lateral branches, each of which also terminates in a flower. This pattern repeats multiple times. However, the flowers at each branching point are not at the same level. This inflorescence is BEST described as a:

A student observed 34 inflorescences in Bougainvillea and 42 inflorescences in Poinsettia. Find out the number of flowers in Bougainvillea and the number of female flowers in Poinsettia respectively.

Consider the following statements. I. In racemose inflorescence, the flowers are brone in a basipetal order. II. Epigynous flowers are seen in rose plant. III. In brinjal, the ovary is superior. Of these statements.
