Perigynous flowers have the gynoecium situated below other floral parts.

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

Flowers can indeed be classified as actinomorphic (radial symmetry) or zygomorphic (bilateral symmetry) based on their symmetry. The calyx and corolla are accessory organs, not reproductive. A flower with both androecium and gynoecium is bisexual, not unisexual. In perigynous flowers, the gynoecium is positioned centrally, not below other parts.
