Column2

 

1) Multicarpellary  d) More than one pistil
2) Syncarpous c) Fused pistils
3) Apocarpous b)  Free pistil
4) Monocarpellary  a) Single  pistil

 The gynoecium represents the female reproductive part of the flower. The gynoecium may consist of a single pistil (monocarpellary) or may have more than one pistil (multicarpellary).

When there are more than one, the pistils may be fused together (syncarpous) or may be free (apocarpous) .

Each pistil has three parts, the stigma, style and ovary.
