"Zygomorphic" refers to the characteristic of having bilateral symmetry in a flower, meaning the flower can be divided into two equal halves along only one plane, typically through the center. This term is often used in botany to describe flowers where the petals and other floral parts are arranged symmetrically around a central axis. Many common flowers, such as orchids and snapdragons, exhibit zygomorphic symmetry.
