A Correct answer
Explanation

Dichlamydeous flowers possess both accessory whorls: the calyx (outer whorl of sepals) and the corolla (inner whorl of petals). The prefix 'di-' means two, referring to these two accessory whorls. Monochlamydeous flowers have only one, and achlamydeous flowers lack both. Diadelphous refers to stamen fusion, not whorls.
