(A) The names of certain plant families,such as $Papilionatae$ (a subfamily of $Fabaceae$) and $Cruciferae$ (an older name for $Brassicaceae$),are derived from the arrangement and shape of their petals.In $Papilionatae$,the corolla is papilionaceous (butterfly-like),consisting of a large posterior standard,two lateral wings,and two anterior fused petals forming a keel.In $Cruciferae$,the four petals are arranged in the form of a cross (cruciform).Therefore,these names are based on the characteristics of the $Corolla$.
