NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2020

Solution:

A written shorthand that represents the structure of a flower using a standard set of symbols, presenting substantial information about the flower in a compact form is known as a floral formula. In this formula, K is calyx, C is corolla, P is perianth, A is androecium, G is gynoecium. In a floral formula, gamosepalous (the number of sepals in the calyx that are united) is symbolized by the letter (K). The sepal number enclosed in the brackets indicates the degree of fusion of the sepals.
