    Question: Which of the following shows a whorled phyllotaxy?

    Options:

    Alstonia
    Calotropis
    Mustard
    China rose

    📌Concept:
    -The arrangement of leaves on the stem or the branch of a plant is called phyllotaxy.
    -There are three different kinds of phyllotaxy: alternate, opposite, and whorled.

    ✅Explanation:
    -Alternate
    -In this case, a single leaf arises at each node.
    -The leaves are arranged in an alternate manner.
    -It is observed in china rose, mustard, and sunflower.
    -Opposite
    -In this case, a pair of leaves are arranged on either side of the node.
    -The leaves lie opposite each other.
    -It is observed in Calotropis. 
    -Whorled
    -​If more than one leaf arises from a node and forms a whorl, the kind of phyllotaxy is called whorled phyllotaxy,
    -It is observed in Alstonia.
    In a line transect of length L and half-width w, designed for estimating the density of gaur (∼ D=N/2Lw), N animals were counted.
