Answer

  1. 5 - lobed stamens

Explanation:

In compositae, the corolla is sympetalous with mostly 3 - 5 lobes.

The androecium consists of 4 or 5 stamens that are united by their anthers and are adnate to the corolla tube or epigynous zone, alternating with the lobes.

The gynoecium consists of a single compound pistil of 2 carpels and an inferior ovary with one locule and one basal ovule.
